CNY Shopping and more Shopping

 having bkt

  CNY Shopping

buying for ofh

On Wed, Ah Ma picked Emeryn from her daycare and later sent her to Science tuition. On the other hand, mummy went to QBM as she wanted to shop for her CNY clothing. Uncle Leonard joined her at QBM and they had dinner together before leaving on their own. Unfortunately mummy couldn't get any clothing of her choice. On Fri evening when mummy picked up Emeryn from daycare, she was having a very bad flu and her body temperature was slightly on the higher side. She still insisted to have bak kut teh for dinner before we went over to the clinic. She was given a day MC on Sat as she is supposed to have extra co-curricular on Sat.
Emeryn got a lot better on Sat morning, thus we went out to QBM for CNY shopping. Daddy promised to buy her some CNY clothing but mummy was afraid if daddy choose the wrong type of clothing for Emeryn. Mummy ended up bringing Emeryn for shopping on her own. We managed to buy 2 dresses, a spaghetti strap top and a pair of jeans for Emeryn. Uncle Leonard & Karise came over to QBM to meet us for lunch before mummy dropped Emeryn at Pekaka. Daddy brought Emeryn out to QBM again as Emeryn asked daddy to pay for her to try her luck on the toys claw machine. Later daddy dropped Emern home at about 7pm.

Emeryn attended her 4 tuition classes on Sun. We started off with her Maths class on 7.45am. While she was at the class, mummy went to D' Fat Mona Lisa Cafe for breakfast. After the class we drove to Por Por's house and had our lunch before mummy sent Emeryn to Bestari tuition. Mummy went back home to rush to complete the photobook after sending Emeryn to Bestari. After her class at 5pm, we headed to Giant as mummy wanted to shop for groceries to be distributed at the old folks home during CNY. We brought back Por Por's home cooked to be eaten as our dinner later in the evening.

Baking for CNY

 

On and off mummy will take turn with Ah Kong fetching Emeryn from school. For a start Ah Kong is fetching 2 boys before fetching Emeryn to the daycare. Since CNY is approaching, mummy kept herself busy with all the baking. She started off with the cranberry shortbread cookies which Uncle Leonard sold to the FV residents and we got quite an overwhelming response. Mummy started baking peanut cookies on Mon nite. On Fri evening, we went to Park's Kitchen a small family-based Korean restaurant located at Perak Road. It was mummy's second time there and the meal was quite good.

On Sat, mummy & Uncle Leonard tried out their first baking on carrot cake with walnut and the result turned out to be super yummy despite a little damp. Emeryn attended 4 tuition classes on Sun before coming home for a swim. Later that evening, Uncle Leonard came over and cooked aglio olio to be taken for the next day's breakfast.

Patrick, The Red Dog

 Emeryn & her new Precious
 
 dinner before Science tuition

breakfast after Maths tuition
 
Patrick, the red dog. Mummy bought her the first one on Oct 2006. In within few years later, we had another 2. The last one stayed with her for at least 7-8years, a loyal companion she brought "him" everywhere around the world. Patrick has travelled to many countries. Without him, she would have trouble sleeping. Unfortunately we left "him" in Munich and never would see "him" again. She cried and got really upset for losing her precious. After long searching, today we have a new Patrick (slightly smaller in size) delivered to us. Hopefully this new "him" would brings her more sunshine and be a loyal companion to her.

Mummy ordered Patrick online and finally got it delivered on Mon. Emeryn requested mummy not to unwrap the packaging as she wanted to do it on her own. As soon as Emeryn stepped into the car when mummy picked her, she smiled happily and quickly unwrap it. Though it was a bit smaller in size, it is sufficient to make her happy. Starting from now, Ah Kong will send Emeryn from school to daycare for 2-3days in a week, whereas mummy and Ah Ma will send her on one day each. 

Emeryn's Science tuition has changed from Thurs to Wed. Thus, after work mummy will bring her out for dinner before dropping her to tuition. Last Wed it rained heavily and we basically drenched in the rain. Mummy drove to Tesco to run some errand while waiting for Emeryn. 

On Sat, mummy dropped Emeryn to school for her extra co-curricular and she went for breakfast alone before going home. Later mummy went out for her monthly gathering at Egate while Ah Ma picked Emeryn from school. Emeryn spent few hours at Pekaka while mummy & Uncle Leonard went to Gurney Plaza to grab something.  Mummy picked Emeryn from Pekaka at about 3.30pm and we headed home. That evening Emeryn went over to Karise's house while mummy accompanied Uncle Leonard to his ex boss's son's wedding at G Hotel. 

The next morning, we started our day early as well as Emeryn has to attend her Maths tuition which starts at 7.45am. While Emeryn was at tuition, mummy went for breakfast at a small Korean Cafe. Later, mummy bought kimbap for Emeryn's breakfast. Mummy then dropped Emeryn to Theng Ee Ee as she wanted to spend sometime with Baby Will. By 12.15pm, mummy picked Emeryn from Ee Ee's home and sent her to tuition again. Poor baby attended her tuition from 12.30pm to 5pm. Later in the evening, Emeryn went to Karise's house again while mummy and Uncle Leonard went over to Aunty Fanny's house to get some baking ingredients.

Mummy and Uncle Leonard took about 20 orders of baking cranberries shortbread cookies last week and keep themselves occupied at the kitchen.

 playground time

 
 feeding the fishes

It was another public holiday again on 1st Jan. Mummy cooked us big breakfast. After filling our tummies, we got readied and head to QBM as mummy wanted to shop for her CNY clothing. Mummy bought 2 dresses but none for Emeryn. As Emeryn grows further, she is now very choosy with her clothing. This can't, that can't. 

School reopened on Tues, 2nd Jan and our busy schedules are back on track again. Emeryn started with her Science tuition on Thurs and fully packed back-to-back tuition on Sun. Whereas mummy and Uncle Leonard kept themselves busy baking for their cranberry shortbread cookies which were up for ordering. For a start Ah Kong will send Emeryn from school to daycare for few days in a week, lessen mummy's burden.

Emeryn's Sun tuition started at 7.45am at Jelutong and we both had hard time waking up on weekend. While she was at tuition, mummy went for breakfast. After the class, we headed over to Por Por's house. Baby Will was around and we brought him to the playground and went over to a place where they can feed the fish, turtle and birds. It was located at an unit of the flat opposite the playground. Emeryn had her lunch at Por Por's before heading over to her next 3 tuition classes from 12.30-5pm. Mummy has no choice but to fill her schedule that jam-packed as she will be having her UPSR exam this year. After the class she went for a swim with Karise. We brought some food home for dinner from Por Por's house.

Beach Outing & Khuntai Dinner

X'mas @ QBM

 
beach outing
 
 
dinner @ Khuntai

Christmas fell on Mon and its a non working day for mummy. After having a quick lunch at home, we went to QBM along with Uncle Leonard & Karise to witnessed the snow fall at the center court to mark the special day. It's an annual event held by the QBM management. We then went shopping for awhile before leaving for a meal at Super Tanker.

It was the last week before the school reopen and before we got back to our daily routine as usual. On Tues we had a simple home cooked porridge for dinner. We dropped by the uniform store to buy a new set of school uniform for Emeryn on Wed evening on our way home. She was still wearing her white blouse which she wore from Day 1 of Primary One till now. Obviously she hasn't grown too much ever since the past years.

On Fri evening Uncle Leonard drove us to Batu Maung as mummy wanted to try the-most-shout-about Burger Ayam Goreng Njoy. Well, it tasted quite good though but the attractive colors of the bun sure attract our attention. We were looking for a short activities to end the year where we thought of driving to Bukit Kayu Hitam or Sitiawan etc. We somehow drop the idea and instead went out for a beach outing on Sat.

Our initial plan was mandi manda at Taman Rimba which were suggested by Emeryn. We drove from home and make a pit stop at Balik Pulau famous laksa to get some and also bought some cold drinks. We were very disappointed as soon as we reached the entrance of the Taman Rimba. It was closed for some kind of maintenance work. We have no choice but forced to drive on and settled down with a nearby beach. We stopped at the public beach behind Feringghi Beach restaurant. We had our mini picnic and enjoy the meal before the kids proceed to play near the sea.We spend near to 2hours there before they washed up at the public toilet . Though it was a sudden change of plan, no doubt we still had fun going to the beach. We then drove to Khuntai at Teluk Kumbar as mummy was buying dinner for all of us. Mummy invited Theng Ee Ee, Por Por & Ah Kong to join us for dinner. We were the first to reach but it started to rain not long after we were seated. Ah Kong & Theng Ee Ee drove separately. After the scrumptious dinner, we had some photo taking before calling it a day.

The next morning we both woke up early as Emeryn's tuition started at 7.45am. After sending Emeryn to tuition, mummy went for breakfast. After the tuition, we headed over to Por Por's house for our Sun visit. That night it was the last night of 2017, New Year Eve. Mummy & Uncle Leonard celebrated the last day of the year over an instant noodle and topped up with white wine. Cheers to the wonderful 2017 and let's hope for a more colorful 2018.
