About Me

My photo
I´m a foodie who lives to eat. A Singaporean living in the heart of Jakarta. My food blog started because I could never remember my recipes back when we travelled back and forth from here and Singapore...and I´m terrible at keeping folders! So this was my savior. I still rely on this blog to cook so just know that the recipes here are all tried and tested!

Geteiltes Leid Ist Halbes Leid

A quote someone very close to my heart always said..... Anyway Thumper came back with their offer.. I realize the basic is more than KN anyway plus the commissions are heavy so why not! Plus its 5 day work week... 10 to 6... almost like EYHO.

Mel agrees.. money is not everything once you have kids.....

Solch eine Angst!

Today is real dread.. i've diverted my phone so that KN won't be able to reach me... just needed to know what the offer is from Thumper... sigh.... then the phone rang... they called home and I had to pretend I was someone else... heheheheh

Please..please.. please... let me know soon! I'm nervous, I'm agitated, I'm frustrated.... aaaaaaaaaarrrggggghhhhhhh.. and the worse bit.. tomorrow will be another waiting day..

At least listening to other people problems help lighten my burden...Mel is still waiting for the CB offer which will by 27th! I know she's as agitated as I am.. I cooked Ayam Panggang today to eat with rice, ulam, keropok, ikan kering & sambal belachan...

Ein Glücklicher Tag

I did my 2 teeth yday... and the fillings were so cool!! They were PINK! Of course it looks like I've got strawberries perpetually stuck to my mouth but hey.. no ones playing tonsil hockey with me apart from Fai...heheeheh .. They waive off the consultation fee and charged me $40 per filling.. of course la.. after the $7000 Mama spent on doing her crowns there!

The monkey is still etched in my mind... I wonder what happened.. do the other monkey carry him to be buried or do they leave him on the road to rot..

Mela went for another interview yday and I sincerely hope she gets the one at CB. It'll be good for her and I'm sure the money's good too. Our flea market is next week! Its so fast! I dunno how i'll sell my stuff.. there's just too many! What with mama & mak donated... its amazing! I have to get that rack at Ikea to hang the clothes!

I'm worried about the job offers too.. KN have not called abt the contract and CHIJMES said yes but its only the salary thats turning me off!! Lets hope I have a better offer today.

Ein Trauriger Tag

It started off as a great day with me going for another interview at CHIJMES, having a nice lunch break then heading home to pick the kids up for an outing. Thought of heading off to Ikea as Mama wanted new curtains then she decided on the ones at Metro so in the end we ended up at Gelenggang (which was closed on Monday we realized) as she was craving for their Mee Soto.

So we had prata & mee hoon goreng at Casuarina before feeding the monkey.. we brought peanuts and bread and after all that something tragic happened... it all seemed to go in slow-mo... monkey scattred all over the place, car coming, monkey trapped under the wheel, monkey lay motionless, monkey started heaving, blood trickled down the nose, then mouth then suddenly there was a pool of blood around the monkey.. it just didn't register in my head what was happening until Mama shouted.. "Is DRIVE!!! i cannot see this!"

Somehow time just pass by in a blur.. before I knew it, time for dinner and I have no appetite. I cooked Salmon Masak Merah with Bening Sayur and Mama said it looked like the monkey's blood!~!! Gross!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Che just emailed asking if I am keen in a Marketing job at Thumper at Goodwood Park!!! I also applied at Legends at Fort Canning........ sigh.... now I've got too much choices!! Wait til' fai hears about it!

Unser Jahrestag



Its our Anniversary!! Dunno where we're going to tonight but Fai has already opened his gift last night!! Managed to get 50% off the Ferragamo wallet he wanted.... guess it pays to have connection!! lol
Trying not to be disappointed if he doesn't get wat I want but I guess I am used to it.. then again, men are usually clueless on what their woman wants!

Meine zwei Helder




Faiz & Faris....

This was taken when Faiz was 2 months old... he's a really big boy!Faris is learning the letter P this week so he has prawn printing, pencil holder as artwork... he's also asking when our trip to "Aussalia" will be... hehehhehe..

Can't wait for Faiz to talk... he's staring to walk on his walker and shouting and blabbling all the time.. I'll miss him when I start to work...

Mündlicher Austausch

Not a very good day.. Fai almost left the house cuz he misunderstood about what I said to Mummy!! sigh.... every single year in between her birthday & our anniversary is always tough... tension!!! I guess he's not happy that I didn't bring the kids to her place for cake cutting!! I honestly didn't have the time!! By the time I got back from my interview, it was almost 3pm and we still had to go to Ikea, fetch papa, send him home....
