(2009/12) December 2009 MTBs

shokel, u r supposed to stir in when the water is cold. It is watery at this point. Then slowly simmer over heat n it becomes gooey. I don't like this.. too troublesome to do.

1xMummy, i think the budget is $20 to $30..

in other news, zach's birthday party invite is done... yay.. so happy that can send for printing now.

abt the bday bash, how much n where to transfer? has there been an update? is it on the blog too?
 


Hi May,
Ok noted S$20-$30 for the gift.
So it must be a toy right?

Wow, cool, U've got the invites ready! I think i will just inform by email or sms. hehe..
Where is the venue of the party?
U decided the cake already? From where?
Hows the budget for the party like?
Do share.

Im gg to start planning too, but im kinda lost. Need to find venue or else i think i cannot plan for the rest of the stuffs.
 
einnoc, no need to wait for long, u can call to make appointment first but u must remember u need to have patience to see results from taking chinese medicine. so is like u can ask for 2 weeks medicine then must re-visit and re-visit to check progress.
 
May- ya la... So troublesome doing the si sen fen but if dun giv wasted leh, one whole tin wor..

Bday bash gift- oh ya, isit restricted to toy or anything so long it's within the price range. ?
 
Jelly cake: I know of a stall that does jelly cake. Its located at beauty world, inside the food centre. Bought from the aunty b4 and its nice and cheap. Dun think she sell it online.

Planning for #2: Me & hb very much wanted to have #2, in fact hb keep asking me when can we have #2? But dun think will be that fast coz i cant handle alone. I will go bonkers! LOL!

Menses: Me still on total latch.. Menses not yet report too.

Email from SMH: Yea, i recieved it too! Finally!

Ains, y dun u try posting at WTS? Maybe u can post liao?
 
1xMummy, ya.. decided on the cake and venue already! as for budget of party, not fixed yet cos we haven't decide on how many relatives to invite. At the moment, only inviting friends.. It's more of an adult party than kids' party cos most of my friends got no kids. have u planned on where to do?
 
Hi Ainsley, Jenny, I'm not an expert but just giving my 2 cents worth.

If the cake is sponge cake, it cannot hold heavy stuffs. The cake will sinked.
That's why usually for cake topper, it is make of plastic and light material.
From the look of the precious moments figurines, they are made of clay right?
Then it will be too heavy already, will risk the cake sinking.
Unless it is butter cake which are heavier and can hold more weight.

Shokel, why don't you into the porridge?

I bought the Eu Ren Sang Brown rice si shen powder and add a teaspoon into ashton's porridge everyday juz before the porridge is well cooked.
 
Talking abt planning for bb.. My menses also very buey zhun want ley.. So its hard to know o date. Shun qi zi ran ba.. I miscarriage my 1st, after that went for holiday in Maldives and got it there. Lil' shay is made in Maldives! Haha.. So holiday is the key to getting preggy!

Tips to share: My gynae taught me, once u notice gluey transparent discharge (like jelly).. That's ur o date! It will only last for 2-3 days. I notice that too.. Hope it helps!
 
Re: maid

My maid is an indon who can speak english and eat pork. So far she is pretty good.
She is humble and easier to 'teach' and not so prideful.

I have no luck with Fili maid.
LAst year had 3 of them and all give me tonnes of problems!
They are also full of ego and pride.
Difficult to teach them the way I want things to be done.
 
Those of you going for Indon maid, try to get one who has SMA qualification which is like our junior college education.
They can understand English better.
But maids with this higher quad are very limited.

Usually they only have SMP which is like our Secondary education.
These are the ones who have problems even understanding English.
 
wow annie, must be every 2 wks.... the thought of it scares me leh.

bb shae, u pm me rite? but yr email add is grabgreatdeals?
 
Ariz: oh can put in porridge ar? Great... I shall do tt then.. I see so watery n cakey also er lor... Haha.. Tks!

happy.gif


Oh so if see the jelly like stuff it's o day? Then can bd? Wil be girl? ??
 
Shokel, the tin never specified though.

But I asked the auntie at eu ren sang, she told me that was what some people did cause I told her very troublesome to just cooked the powder.

So far, ashton seems alright eating it this way, at least the taste not so strong.
 
Ainsley, I don't have any cake topper myself cause usually I make fresh cream cake.
For fondant cake, I would use cutter.

I do have mickey mouse and friends cake topper which belongs to my friend. If you all want, I can ask my friend and think she should be fine with it.

happy.gif
My big gal is eating since she started eating porridge.
happy.gif
is very good, porridge wont taste weird de.

Annie : If im interested in the jelly cake, I have to call them? Do they have email instead?

My mum has actually give her chinese medi, but takes longer time.
 
May, like what Happymummy mentioned, the porridge won't taste weird.

Furthermore, I only add 1 teaspoon so the taste is not that strong.
The soup that I used to cook the porridge is pretty sweet so it will cover the taste also.
 
Omg! Jus woke up from nap n I saw ash body full of rash! Think it's the EYS ...goodness, very bad rash, I'm bringing him to the doc n chk ...
 
aris &amp; happymummy, thanks for the tip! now it's a good way to use up the si shen powder.
happy.gif


anyone engaging event photographer for bb bday party? what should be the rough budget?
 
Happymummy and snow_xue, yes, if u are referring to the jelly cakes from Mr and Mrs Chan, u need to order via phone. Majority of their designs are $40 + $5 for delivery. U can call again to confirm the pricing...I just ordered one in August and personally find the sugar level just nice.

Snow_xue, yes, to see TCM for yr cough, seriously need to be patient and go for regular visit unlike western doc, give u the medicine and u may stop coughing for a while. Well, no obligation but just sharing my experience.

As for cake toppers hor, I saw some at a party shop at Millenia Walk Shopping Centre (level 1), the price is good. I bgt one which is a bunch of balloons like the one we saw in the cartoon movie 'UP' and is only $1.50. Not sure about the rest of the designs and prices.

jenny (pooh81), regarding the scrapbooking, there is a pushcart at Bugis Junction selling alot of these stuffs. I saw it last Friday.
 
Shokel, how is Ash's rashes? Hope it subside soon.

For EYS sishen brown rice, after opening the tin, is there a limited time frame we must finish consumption? My tin open 5mth oredi, still left a lot, still can eat?
