Weekends are precious. While we want to spend quality time with our kids, we also need to balance with time to catch up with our OWN friends...for self-care and sanity. We've discovered a hidden 'oasis' in the middle of CBD that is perfect when occasions call for it. Spacious, cosy, good food, wide range of drinks (from our local Kopi-C to exquisite European craft beers) plus live bands performing live from 7:30pm nightly. Best of all, … [Read more...]
{Giveaway} Lassig Tender Messenger Bag
‘What is this?’ I asked, coming home one day to find a wrapped parcel on the table. ‘Well, what do you think?’ quizzed my wife in return. Puzzled, I scanned my work-weary mind to check if I’ve missed an important date or something. ‘ Anniversary? Birthday?' My mind (and my life) flashed before me. 'No' was the answer, fortunately. 'Open it', she nudged. After the un-boxing, right before me was a sleek, stylish looking messenger bag. I flipped open to examine the bag and to … [Read more...]

Saturday Night Fever – A Dazzling, Delightful, Disco Date Night
When I knew that Saturday Night Fever The Musical was coming to Singapore, I was both excited as well as apprehensive. You see, next to a slew of family-oriented musicals (think Sound of Music, Mary Poppins etc), Saturday Night Fever was THE other movie that has shaped my growing years. The gritty story of a young man strutting the streets of Brooklyn and the dance floor in search of his own identity was a welcome change for me - this other young man at the cusp of his … [Read more...]

Holiday Inn Resort Phuket (Patong) Review – So Near, yet so ‘Perfectly Far’
‘Excuse me sir, you take care of your children, let me take care of your bags’. Never in all our travels have we heard such a statement from the hotel rep who greeted us at the airport. Sure, they are supposed to do airport to hotel pick-ups but this lady staff's intention was not to load the bags quickly and bus us off to the resort. Instead, she put the kids' welfare first. Such is the family-centric care that is so much within the fiber of this established resort which we will spend … [Read more...]
{Giveaway} Emicakes Mooncakes Golden Grandeur Collection 2015
I've always preferred snowskin mooncakes over traditional baked ones. My husband David is the opposite - he's for all things authentic and old-fashioned. One of my earliest memories of Mid-Autumn Festival were those of my Mom, using the meager savings left of her lean salary to buy different mini snowskin mooncakes from neighbourhood bakeries as a annual treat for my sister and I. I remembered that as a child, my favourite snowskin mooncakes would be the green coloured ones, in Pandan … [Read more...]
