Baby Names – Chinese Version – Again

Posted on 17 Mar 201325 Feb 2017   by CY

If there’s one thing that Chinese-teacher parents can help that many other parents can’t, it’s in helping think of Chinese names for new-borns! Can’t believe that it’s been almost exactly four years ago when we had this same exercise for

Another month and our thirteen visit to the site of the on-going construction of our new home @ The Minton condo. From the looks of progress, it seems now extremely unlikely that the place will be ready for residents to

Re-entering the Kitchen: Rice topped with Red and White Sauce

Posted on 11 Mar 201325 Feb 2017   by Ling

Hannah – The Little Helper :)

Posted on 6 Mar 20136 Mar 2013   by Ling

Today marks the 3rd time Hannah volunteered to scrub the bathtub she used for showering. I actually had to curb her enthusiasm by reducing the frequency she does the scrubbing! Otherwise she would want to scrub it every night! Not
