Ishin Japanese Restaurant

For Chin’s birthday celebration, the group went to Ishin Japanese restaurant for dinner. Japanese!!!! YUMMY!!! My fav. Heard some news about this place but havent really been to it. We ordered quite a lot and what’s Japanese without SASHIMI? Fresh fish….*drool*

Yummy sushi and sashimi

 One thing that I never tried before is Grilled Tuna Jaw. The size of that jaw was kinda huge to me and the meat…..smooth and succulent! Really nice! We had 2 type of soup, mushroom and seafood. I love the miso soup. The favourite dish of all…….LAMB! The meat just fell off the bone and stewed to perfection. Nice…..really nice :drool:

Tuna, lamb and soup

Up the hill and a haircut

Recently, Koppie and I were able to spend more time with the mousies when we went for a 5 family trip to the Fraser’s Hill. Together with Lai, Leow, Saw and Yong family, ah Ka booked a bungalow from her company. Took us more than 3 months of planning and scheduling but finally, we were there and made it! Again, 11 adults and 9 kids (1 on the way), you can imagine the noise level when EVERYONE’s awake.
But then this trip was different as compared to the Malacca trip cause we didnt leave the bungalow at all. Meals were also prepared for us. Just rest and relax. Only thing is Caileigh vomitted 3 times during the trip up…..car sick….poor gal. Fortunately, she slept her way down and no mishaps….phew…. 
The kids also spent a lot of time running around in the garden, in the cool air too. Mousies also enjoyed themselves a lot with the free will running hehehe.

Frasers Hill

During the weekend, I also did an experiment….give Aidan boy a haircut! With just scissors and comb, I did the deed in just under 10 mins. He was a little scared with the clipping sound but still…the end result….not too bad; a handsome boy and a happy customer hehehe :)

A happy customer!

Nittaya Kai Yang

As I rummage thru my camie, apparently I missed out a place in BKK that T&B brought us to: Nittaya Kai Yang. We had 2 fish dish, the famous roast chicken and lots of small dishes. I especially love the ‘pork sausage’ and the fish soup which was really fragrant. The dishes just kept coming and one dish taste better than the other….YUMMY!!!
Thanks to T&B again, you guys are so lovely and sweet :hug:

Moments that melt all hardship away….

Angels courtesy of LighHouseByTheSea.com

when my angels look at me and smile oozing with tons of sweetness
when my angels came to sleep next to me in the middle of the nite
when my angels fall asleep in my arms feeling safe while they venture to The Land of Lullaby
when they call me Mama with love
when they cry the moment i walk away
when they run to the gate to greet me when I reach home
when they are healthy and running about, giggling to each other’s silliness
when they sleep in peace at night, snoring away with cute tunes
when they simply be themselves, a set of angels in my life

 

Yesterday nite, Adian boy was sleepy and much to my surprise, chose to come to my side and sleep with me hugging him. Normally, he would sleep in his ’spot’ of the bed with Koppie crone him to sleep with his favourite song. Such sweet moments that i held onto him for some time way after he fell asleep. Had to let go when Caileigh girl also wanted the same hehehe…my angels….just couldnt wipe off that smile off my face…

 

I guess that happens to all parents to find that their angels ‘need’ them and those are the moments that makes all your hardship melt away and worth while :)

A whole new chapter has begun

When I first decided to embark onto a whole new journey, never did I ever think that one of my dream of having a shop would come true. At most, have a website selling stsuff. But then CC helped me realize this dream. Like a mega train, she pushed everything through and even pushed me to make decisions, stuff that I would never dare to even do. I took the biggest leap of faith if not for her, holding my hands. Thanks CC!! *hugs *hugs*. I have to thank her for all that happened. Everything went by so super fast for me even though it took a couple of months to materialize. The shop is not big but big enough to show ppl on what we have. My family showed great support in helping me with the kids :hug:
To cut the story short, here are some pics of the GREAT event!
Renovation process

Even before the the reno, there are so much to be done, packing, up on racks and ready made stuff (mostly by CC and Handy…so paiseh that I didnt manage to make much) On that very day of reception, we started the day realllll early from each’s house. The moment we arrived and starting to set up, guests started coming in. But right before the ‘craziness’ started, we took a breather to give thanks and a pray for all that was given. It was great fun to see so many ppl coming to support. Even had a few walk in customers hehehe

Our lovely advert board

Felt flower as deco

The mosaic box that is loved by most

Jars of buttons

Celebration of the successful day and great start for the journey ahead

At last, we closed the day feeling so drained out but happy that we pulled through. Really hope that all customers who left with our products love them and feel that they do brighten their day or house. Love you all for your support!! *MUAKS* :thumbs:

A God Blessed day

For people who are close to me, they know that I had been visiting a Chinese doc for a long time…more than 8 months to get my sensitive skin and allergy fixed. The flare was quite bad and quality of life deteriorated badly. Finally after 8 months, I am finally graduating!!! Doc was even more happy than me coz my readings are all normal for the first time :) To mark the historical day, he even log down all the readings for record purposes. No doubt, I will never get rid of my sensitive skin but as long as they dun flare up to this condition, then i am good. Hope my condition stays to be good :thumbs: Today is a good day….a good sign…a blessed day indeed from God. To mark today, the new leaf in the pic that I took was just like my day…a refreshing and beautiful one…

Craft crazy

What have i been up to lately? Crafts…..yea not much time when you have 2 mousies to handle but hey, some times the bug bites. Moreover, doing them is good for my personal project that is going on. So, what have i made? Made a bracelet and experimented some other stuff. Right now, am trying out on felt craft after looking at some samples on the net. Bought myself a felt craft book on making desserts….yes, desserts! Cut out the designs already and I am so excited. Hope that i made a good ‘food’ piece. Fingers crossed!
