First time I visited a mushroom farm and I was surprised that these mushrooms have beautiful colors and can be eaten. They make crispy mushroom chips which is very delicious. I heard that this is really easy to plant with the right temperature. By the way, I love to eat these abalone mushrooms. It goes well in Tom Yum soup!

If you go to Cameron Highlands, you should visit the mushroom farm. Here are some pictures for you to enjoy…

I was shopping at Mydin and found this. Now I guess you won’t mix up your Raya money. For some of you who do not know what this is, it is actually a money gift to the children during the Raya Festival. Most parents, elderly people or married couples will give the children some Raya money.

I am sure someone will print the same for Chinese New Year. Will I use it? Maybe, just to trick my kids.

My children’s school teaches very little English grammar. The English, they are learning is too easy for them. They hardly learn noun, pronoun, adjectives, verb and etc. Mostly they do is composition or comprehension.

I bought some Singapore syllabus English workbook to start them on grammar. At least now, they understand the basic of English. They liked these workbooks. If you are looking for grammar books, I would recommend this. It has a lot of examples too.

I remembered my son didn’t like to drink milk after he was 8 months old. I was very worried as a first time mom. I had to spoon feed him during every milk time. Fortunately for me he learnt how to suck from the straw. He drank milk from the cup with a straw.

Now for toddler who is facing problem drinking milk from the bottle you can try to use milk straws. It comes in many flavors like chocolate, banana strawberry or vanilla. It will be Quick Milk for your kids and you do not have to wait for them to finish.

When you always point the camera at them, they will act like this. They have grown to be acting cute in a very funny way. I still adore them!

Just love this balloon display!

I made this delicious dessert using my thermal pot. The thermal pot is one of the best things I have invested on. One thing with thermal pot, it conserved energy and you cannot overcook! In addition, you don’t need to watch the fire.

Pulut Hitam is black glutinous rice. I wash the rice before cooking. Pour the rice into the pot and water. Add sugar while boiling. I boil it for 10 minutes under the stove and transferred it into the thermal pot and locked it. It will cook itself. The longer you leave it, the better it taste. After 3-4 hours, you will have a tasty and delicious dessert.

Add a tablespoon of santan (coconut milk) and it is ready to serve. My girl loves this! Yummilicious!

There is a very good seafood place at Gertak Sanggul Fishing Stage. Map below:

It has a fishing pond and you can fish for RM$40 for 3 hours. When I was there, I saw a few people caught a few big fish. It makes me want to join them.

Beside the fishing pond, there is a seafood restaurant. I have eaten the best fried crab with salted egg there. We called crab, steam fish, marmite chicken, broccoli and tom yum soup. The price was only RM130 for 4 adults and 2 children. The fish was a big portion. Thumbs up for a place to eat seafood with a great greenery view. By the way, you need to call in and pre-order, if not it will be a long wait.

Me: Tim, you forgot to fold your blanket.

Tim: How to fold? *he knows how to do it but he just wanted to pretend*

Emily: Fold like an airplane. *lol*

Tim: Done.
