Blossom Beats at Gardens By The Bay
We were toying with the idea of booking a flight to Japan to witness the Cherry blossoms in April. However due to various reasons, the plan didn't materialise. When we received the Press Release that there will be a Cherry blossoms floral display at Gardens By The Bay, I couldn't be happier. My dream of experiencing 'Hanami' under the Sakuras in Japan may not be able to come true (yet) but hey, I am now able to see them in person, right here in Singapore! More than 20 … [Read more...]
Family Favorites at Kai Garden Restaurant 嘉苑
Whenever we go to Marina Square, we have difficulties making up our minds where to dine. There are only so much burgers and fish & chips we can stomach, we certainly do not want to waste our calories on lousy food for family meals on weekends. Recently, we heard about this 3 month-old Cantonese Restaurant located at Level 3 of Marina Square and are happy to finally see a decent Chinese restaurant added to the list. Kai Garden recently launched the "Family Favourites" menu which offers … [Read more...]
Ask a TLL Teacher!
Dana's TLL English Folder, adorned with stickers from her TLL teacher each week! Towards the third quarter of Primary One last year, we realized Dana was under-performing in English.

She was starting to lament that she was lousy (in English). We decided we had to do something to raise her morale … [Read more...]

InterContinental Bangkok Hotel – Oasis in the City
This was turning out to be quite an ‘exceptional’ trip - our daughter, Dana started the trip ill. During breakfast on our first morning in Bangkok, she was too weak to join us for breakfast. But she needed some food with the medication, so while the wife stayed with her in the room, I went down to ask if the buffet restaurant could prepare congee for her. I approached a staff in the Espresso Restaurant and vividly remembered stating my request with “ My daughter is ill and I was wondering if the … [Read more...]

I am a house proud person who cannot tolerate clutter in the home. However, as a working Mom who is always short of time, I admit the fridge is often overlooked.
