Once upon a time, there was a little girl who loved ladybird classics and Enid Blyton books. She started reading from the age of 4 and never looked back ever since. She escaped into worlds of faraway trees, golliwogs, the naughtiest little girl and secret seven. She dreamed of having a fairy tale husband who took care of everything and she never had to worry about anything. Her parents had great hopes for her. She played the piano, aced her studies and did all the things little girls should.

I am slowly being burnt out like a candle wick. My work is getting crazy. My boss smses me at night and during the weekends. My children want more of me. My body is protesting. I feel my sanity dip to an alarmingly low level.
I can feel the blues coming on again.
I just tried to break it up with Big again yesterday. He would have none of it. My usual reasons of it being extremely unfair to him, not wanting him to be dragged into a huge commitment, etc, my …

I just couldn’t resist! All that red!!!
Makes me want to go out right NOW and get a red handbag.
The red peacoat at the top right corner is gorgeous too.
I simply love red. Red ipod nano, red lipstick, red dresses, I love them ALL.

OK, I’ve posted the pictures of my precious gifts on Mother’s Day and I really want to talk about the real meaning fo Mother’s Day to me.
I’ve been very down with flu for the last few days, and what Big and my children did for me, mean as much as they gifts they gave me.
The children behaved themselves, knowing that I am unwell. The usual raucous playing was toned down. The constant “mummy mummy” ceased.
Bog, to my utter surprise, completely took over the management of my household, right from the …

Happy Birthday Germaine

Cute Overload!!

Got this done from Chatuchak at Bangkok. The place is huge and rather mind boggling to explore. But we were fortunate that on the day we went, the weather was overcast, so no sun and rather cool.

I wanted to do a little rose at the bottom of my spine, but sadly no time..
Never mind, the real one coming up soon!

Germaine’s 10th Birthday Party at Build-a-Bear

Big saved a piece of Krispy Kreme for me the other day and it was delicious. Now I am not a donut fan at all and so that means quite a lot.
We bought these from Mister Donut during the recent trip to Bangkok and they were……. drool worthy. Visually and gastronomically pleasing.

I have more food pics to load up and tempt you all.. Hehehe soon soon!
