steph,
Noted. I will let you know when I get hold of the free passes to the bird park.
pixie,
Cooking porridge is not a simple task lah. You too high expectation your maid liao
Start with fried egg (like onion fried egg, long bean fried egg), and then stir fried. Once she masters the skill of stir frying, it would be so much easier. And then stew. Stewing should be easy if you teach her once and get her write down what ingredients to go in.
You think you still have leftover for tomorrow's lunch if you order 3pax for 4 of you? Don't think so leh. Even if you have hor, don't think you feel like eating them for long, the first week maybe. More practical if your maid can pick up cooking during your confinement.
mom2nat,
Best of luck for your house hunting. Not easy hor with the crazy property market nowadays. But will be good for your gal, so you just have to try lor, don't you.

chaye,
thanks for feedback! I think for FM no restriction to age, can drink lah as long your girl is not drinking infant milk can liao
Drink more water cos FM tend to be heaty.
Why u choose Grow instead of Pediasure?
mom2nat,
i've tried Friso 1, 2, 3 & also mamil gold 2 & 3 milk before leh (sometimes left over by bb/kids so dun wanna waste it, i drink loh...gd for calcium mah) so i know the taste & sweetness of some brands.

steph, chaye
u all taste the fm? i dont. coz i find it yucky. if leftover, i oso dont drink leh. peifu you all!!
pediasure is touted as for picky eaters lah, but whatever it is, i never really compare if their nutrition is better than other fm or not. perhaps the same bah; i am just a blind consumer.
i think it taste nicer. coz i "smell" the fm compared with other brands, pediasure smells nicer, so kids accept it more
mom2nat
yup, its a fast journey for me thats ending liao...
yah man, maid this week coming rite?? then can ask her to do all these...i so stupid, i did it myself during weekend before she came!
btw my tummy oso pointed. not flat as the ppl say "girl = flat, boy = pointed"....i think hold no truth for me coz both pregnancies i have same stomach shape

My friend just bought Cascadia 3 bedroom because her girl goes Methodist Girls' School next yr. Her plans is like sell it after their girl finish her pri education there.
I heard similac is sweet. But I never try before.
pixie
I suppose you are looking at normal catering and not confinement catering right?
I tried Chu Wei San Tong Trial before. Ordered 2 portions for me and maid. End up the portion is very little.. abt 2 pcs of meat for each person, the soup is really soup with little ingredient. Only the vegetables are of good portion. I am a meat person, so to me is not enough. Wed, they have special dish that doesnt require us to cook rice. It was chicken rice for that week but end up the portion of the chicken meat is like for only 1 pack of chicken rice that we buy outside.
U can trial first. Anyway Kam is right, i ask maid cook egg with onion and it become scrabbled eggs with onions all over.

Steph,
Thanks for the Friso info!
But the 5+1 promo is also available from Friso coy coz I just got their letter that comes with $8 voucher at NTUC. So last weekend went to use the voucher to buy 2tins of 1.8kg.
Giant has the 2+1 promo??? Then good to stock it up again coz it is a much better promo! Maybe should go Giant later???

Morning mummies!
I left office at 4+pm yesterday, cos I stupidly pour a cup of coffee onto myself, luckily it's not too hot. So left earlier to get myself changed and washed up. Ended up a "bonus" day, cooked a full dinner for the family, my hub came back for dinner, and had a good evening with the kids
And oh, my hub said we will go HK in March! Yeah, no need to wait till May/July liao.

wah good news!!
icy
the CWST i heard reviews leh. some ppl say the food light, not much msg kind.
i have chosen 2 different caterers for lunch + dinner liao so hope they are good. no good i just switch to another one the next mth. i only need catered lunch + dinner for 2.5mths only mah, since 1st mth confinement my mom cooking for me
chaye
we did the FO installation at our old place sengkang. its free so you can install.
in our new place, the owner missed it (not educated, didnt bother to check). so we insisted that they should install. then just nice opennet say got 2nd time for ppl who have missed. they should have letters but ignored again...
fedup, we ask them to split the cost 50-50 so they gave us $140. i think total payable is $280
dont worry if you missed it. opennet is just one of many companies who can help you to install FO cables....in future when FO kick off (which is really very slowwwwww), & if u have some company you keen to sign up FO package with, will dangle free FO cable installation for you one de. just to entice u to sign up lo
i work in this line so should be accurate info bah??

pixie,
Oh gosh! Think you gonna deliver sooooon!!! Be careful and look out for signs. #2 is gonna be faster than #1, so get prepared earlier!
Chaye,
We have also got the FO cables installed by OpenNet already many months back. My thought is that since it's free, might as well install it now, even though you don't know if you are going to need it or not in the future. They did it nicely.

Hi! I am also a Jan 08 mummy but I am always a silent reader. I have 2 Friso vouchers to give away cause my son cannot take Friso. He will have constipation after drinking Friso 4. I find it's a pity to throw away them away.
One voucher $8 expiry end of Feb.
One voucher $10. I think expiry is in Mar.
Would any of the mummies here would like to have it? If yes, can you kindly pm me with your nick? All I ask is for you to send a self address envelope with a local stamp on it.
Only for mummies here. Pls do not pm me if you are not. Thanks!
