I got up really early – brought out my best crockery for presentation purpose and cooked a batch of rice not only for Chloe but for her friends in her class as well – I was on a mission.  I was trying to get Chloe’s friends/classmates to try the food that we cooked for Chloe every week – so that they don’t make fun of her food.  You see some food that I cooked for Chloe can be quite strong in smell.  Of course, Chloe who is used to it – don’t feel the same way – but you know how young kids can be – they tell you the way they sees/smells it – but probably don’t express it as kindly – so they tell Chloe that her food is smelly.  The girl being so sensitive then don’t dare to open her food to eat it – so for the love of my child – I also make sure I let the other kids try our food – so they know how yummy it actually is.  Did it worked?  first I actually made a small bowl for her home room teacher to try first – two weeks later – i made this bigger batch for her class.  Only 2 kids would try it – according to Chloe – but I’m gonna keep trying.  I’m sure all mothers out there would do the same for their kids – and I’m no different – just like when I insisted on buying insurance here and PB didn’t really agree or disagree with me.  So I had to look around for a insurance company to insure me – I did my on leg work – check out  wholesale life insurance for the best rates and once I’m insured – I felt alot happier – not for myself – but for Chloe.  On the same note – I’m going to wish all mothers – the good ones – HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!

I saw this strange looking fruit at our local grocery store a month or so ago – and when I showed the picture to a friend from Mexico – she told me that it was a fruit that she grew up with but don’t know the name and it keeps woman’s weight down.  Wow!!!   but of course, they are no where in sight right now – go figure right!  while my friends and I are looking out for the best diet pills for women – here is this fruit that is said to keep one’s weight down.  I had asked my Mexican friend how does this fruit do that?  she said it tasted sourish – and it has some sort of acidic effect that can break down one’s food faster – I don’t know if it is true – but if anyone out ther have seen this fruit or know what it does – do let me know eh.  Any kind of fruit that can keep my weight constant or down – would be awesomeness!

We haven’t gone out to eat for a long time it seems – not on Sundays anyway – since we have had so many things going on for the last few Sundays – so last Sunday – we went to Peg’s family restaurant to eat.  I had a late lunch – so I didn’t really want a lot to eat  – but everything at Peg’s is of a huge portion.  Even the fish cake as you can see is a huge portion and I couldn’t finished it.  How sad eh?  coz’ they were really good fish cake albeit a wee bit too salty for my taste but I never like salt at all in my food – so it is just me – I’m sure.

Chloe had her usual pan-fried fish – half portion because she never finishes her fish and we hate for good food to go to waste – so we always asked for half a portion of fish and the folks at Peg’s are so great – the pan-fried it for her and gave her half a portion and some french fries.

Chloe waiting for her food and doing some water coloring that we had just bought from the dollar store – she loves drawing did we tell you.  And her sweater was from Auntie CY and Rachel from UK/Malaysia and her dress was from Auntie Shirley from Malaysia. Overall, it was a good dinner – we went earlier than usual – because both PB and Chloe had an early breakfast – we had to wait like 15 minutes for a table – even though there was a table for 6 right in the middle empty but since we were only a table for 3 – I guess they didn’t want to waste an empty table – just in case a bigger party came.  The restaurant was quite packed when we were there – a table for 10 at one corner and another table for 10 at another.  Then we had several table for 2s scattered around the restaurant.  So it was busy – it took us about 50 mins to get our food – so it wasn’t that bad – but it’s expected since it was lunch time and they had so many lunch party at that time.   The waitress who served us was sweet and it was value for money – so do give Peg’s a try – even if in the beginning you found it too long waiting for your food – plus you can always ask for a toast or a bun if you are too hungry – they will always accommodate you.
