Simple Summer Recipes Are Here!

Both my sons are coming home this weekend, it has been nearly a month since I last saw them. When I chatted with Andy, my second son last night, he made a “small” request, he said, “Mum, can you please prepare some home-cooked food instead of going out to have our meals?” Oh gosh, surely I would have to say yes, pity them, they have to eat out three times per day. So… what shall I prepare for them this weekend? Just the four of us, my three kids and I…


Thank goodness I came across this website this morning while I was surfing on the Internet. Have you heard of Ariane Duarte before? Well, she is the Top Chef Contestant teaming up with iVillage.com and being a working mother, juggling between work and housework is not an easy task. Here in i.Village.com videos, her easy and inexpensive summer dishes were shown. They looked so simple and yet so special, just nice for a family of four. I just watched the video on how to cook the T-bone steak with garlic lime butter, it was really fantastic all the way. In a matter of minutes, dinner was served with ice cream cake as a dessert! Looks "yummy" and delicious too! Sounds great,yeah? Well, You Can See More Life Made Easy Videos Here. All these videos are from Momtorage.com and sponsored by Walmart. Besides recipes, iVillage.com offers useful information on women’s health, wellness, and beauty site as well.


So you see, all these recipes and easy cooking videos are useful for me. I will continue watching the videos and choose some simple recipes. I am sure my kids will be most surprised to see their special meals this weekend! Happy Cooking to all of you too!

  3. I'm sure they want what you always used to cook for them at home...not those strange recipes. Kids often missed what they always ate at home once they've gone for further studies...

Three Hours City Tour At Ensenada, Mexico

A THREE HOURS CITY TOUR when we embarked in Mexico on the second morning.   My sister booked the three hours city tour in Ensenada, Mexico, a van came to pick us up from the port.  Ensenada is the border of Mexico and it reminds me of Hatyai, a border town too between Malaysia and Thailand.  We were taken to a shopping area where we must haggle for the goods.  LOL.. Yes, something common in my own country... Anyway, we did not buy anything for ourselves... just a wooden handmade truck for my grandson which cost $8usd.   Nothing much to shout about on this three hours excursion, I was so sleepy on the way back to the ship that I dozed off and only awaken when we were driven through the town.  All in all, I just wanted to step onto Mexican soil and I would give this a miss if I were to go on this Mexico cruise again.  LOL... At the open area shopping walking towards the Blowhole... This is La Bufadora Blowhole, an amazing natural marine geyser that is capable of shooting water over 60 fe

The Good, The Bad But Not Ugly

MISSING AND NOW BACK IN ACTION...  I checked back my last post and it was 8 March last month and today is 19 April, less than two months only.  So what has been happening in my life?  Lots and lots... good news, bad news, sad news... all concerning health and I guess this is our life cycle as we live day by day.   My health is also not that "fantastic" during the past few months, but mine is a small rock compared to giant boulder which my best buddy is undergoing... I guess some of you know what is happening to her from her blog posts.  I was totally devastated when this happened to her, my tears couldn't help falling and my heart goes out to her.  I am ashamed to say that instead of me giving the comfort that she needs, I am the one that have been receiving her strength in times like this.  She might be crushed physically but she is not broken in her spiritual mind and soul.  One word... "Unbreakable!"  She is a shining example..... "What can death do to m

Exploring The Sea Cruise Royal Caribbean

CRUISING ALONG.... Once we deposited our bags in our cabins, we had our buffet meal at the Hammerjack restaurant and exactly at 4pm, we heard a loud Horn signal...  ITS TIME TO SAIL ALONG THE PACIFIC OCEAN! And while the ship started to sail, we humans started to walk and explore.... to familarize ourselves inside the ship....  Elevators on each side of the ship....  Making my mark....  On another side....  We walked along to check out our food outlets... This Promenade Cafe  had became our regular joint .... We like to sit there enjoying our hot drinks and desserts... Free flow of food day and night.... Passing through the bars to the casino... The casino will open only when the ship is in international waters...  At one of the jackpot machines... I wonder if they are real?? But they are only $1 bundles... Then we went up to the highest floor.... The swimming deck.... Taken against the sun.... Nice sunset in the evening.... The Happy Trio!
