If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!While most of us are having a regular day in 2009, two parents are grieving over the sudden death of their 16 year old son, Jett Travolta. I read about the news at the HuffingtonPost.

A WAHM’s Wishes

When I read Josette’s post on New Year resolutions, I decided that I will make a list for 2009 to keep myself on track. So…what does this work-at-home-Mum wish to achieve next year?
1. Aim to SUBMIT and PUBLISH at least 1 article per month.
2. Read at least ONE newspaper or newspaper headlines every day (haha, [...]

How to clean cloth menstrual pads

When I posted about Fussybutt’s cloth menstrual pads, I received up to 40 comments, mostly on the nasty task of washing the cloth menstrual pads.
Honestly, I cringe at the sight of blood even though I see it every month. I guess the act of wrapping the blood-soaked pad into newspaper and tossing it out [...]

Taking a Pregnant Pause

When we looked for our rented apartment, the kitchen WAS the deciding factor (other than the price and location). Wanna see what my kitchen is like? Welcome, welcome…

REVIEW: MAM Small & Smart Cup

I received this cute MAM cup as a gift. I used it when Lucas started self-feeding at about 18 months old. For such a cute-looking and good quality cup by an established brand, I’m sad to say that I don’t like this sippy cup!

First, I didn’t like the 3 detachable parts, which meant that I [...]

Preparing for No. 2

When I read about fellow Mums getting pregnant, going to deliver or having just delivered their second baby, I get all excited and anxious myself because we’re planning for another child too.
This time around, it’s more tricky because:
1. We are away from my family and my gynae
I had a complicated pregnancy with bleeding plus that [...]
