Samm's shopping bag

Wanna know how my shopping bag look like? Sewn by Samm... I'll explain more in the coming post...


continue... I has been given away my shopping bag to MeiLee, a friend of mine who dropped by my place few days ago to hand me some chinese medicated powder from her father's chinese medicine shop.

Fridge door's holder

I went to my parent's home which is not very far away from our home. And being a little bit more detail, found out that they need this... those that sold at the hypermart are of standard size which is slightly too small to fit into their fridge...


so, this is how it looks at their fridge...Samm can sew right?!..... ^_^

Hazy sky in Penang

The sky is blanketed with thick haze these 2 days. Besides the cooking lesson - teaching him to fry an egg, we did some craft at home to avoid outdoor activity. Ryan was cooperative enough to do his work...


he colored and stick on the decorative cut out...


this one, he put on the cut out that I coloured...supposed should be done by Russell, end up to be the mader's craft...

Customizeable Shopping Bag - A Greener World

It has been long time we don't play with colors and brushes. While still in the mood, I decided to be creative with the tote bag sewn recently along with No Plastic Bag campaign started recently.

In Penang, we declared Monday as a day without plastic bag - so, be a Plastic Bag Free person! I lauded the move, hope you will too. And to prove further more that I'm a pro-environmental person, I gave tote bags to my father, mother, sisters, brothers, sister-in-law....... and make sure they are reducing in using plastic bags.

This is our piece of art project this morning...




You can order this tote bag (without drawings) from me at a special 25% off from RM16 list price .
Please email to sam.premiumlink@gmail.com
and be as creative as you can be with your kids to have his/her own unique shopping bag...

Bird Nest Soup, for you?


When people talking about bird nest, the 1st thing that popped in my mind is the hi price of it. Izzit really so nutritious since this stuff is so expensive? Well, I don't think so..... sorry.

I did some survey on this bird nest soup lately. Got things that strike me to do so... get what I mean?! The conclusion is that, if you're pregnant, don't consume much of this. Remember!

Kerabu Timun

Well, we seldom eat out and mostly I cook. Say in a week, we eat out maybe once or mostly twice, that's it. So, it's not easy being a cook, hah... you got to crack head plan ahead and get ready what you want to cook and have enough ingredients...

But it's much easier when kids are able to eat spicy food along with us. That's because hubby and I both love chilli food. Well I made kerabu timun for dinner yesterday, my eldest son loved it most. He likes cucumber and at the same time he don't want to miss the sensation of pungency in the food. but that accompanied by 2-3 cups of water, lol.....

Zoo Visit

It was school holidays for the past 2 weeks.
We brought kids to Taiping Zoo.

The weather was hot and we took zoo pram to bring us around. We bought packets of popcorn and Ryan decided to share his food with fishes in the pond. They were mesmerised watching fishes snatched up all the popcorn in seconds. and that was the most joyous moment for them both. hmm... they should have those vending machine with fish food for young visitors who wish to feed those hungry fish, so that they don't have to be fed with popcorn...

And for me, this is something scary...

Helping hand by Good Samaritan

Waited for Russell to wake up at 10am, we happily drove to morning market nearby (Batu Maung) to get something for makan... guess what, my old van broke down in the middle of the road while waiting for the green light. with 2 kids in the van, can't do anything besides asking them to help by waving hand to direct traffic to other lane while waiting for my father to come and fix it. don't know why it run out of electricity, something to do with the battery.

this is a new experience, some interesting discovery... well, as the place is very near to cargo airport, a lot of cargo trucks passing by very fast... some even asked me to switch on the double signal... I wished I were able to do so! some even waited behind and beeped me, those're really gong one..

then come a good samaritan that suddenly "zoom" stand beside my driving seat asking me to leave the vehicle as the traffic and trucks really drive in speed and accident might happen. without 2nd thought, i grabbed my 2 kids crossed the road to a nearby space to be waited there. while the good samaritan put some leaves on stick behind the vehicle indicating vehicle down with problem ... he even asked if need to call for mechanic if I haven't do so... then I noticed that he parked his truck somewhere 200m away and came to my aid.

Sometimes, we just need the ONE to come forward when we're in needy... I would like to say a big "Thank You" to him here.
