New deco

Found this off G-market, been toying with the idea of buying but neber got ard doing it while I was preggies as mummy say cannot anyhow stick things during preggies..After the miscarriage, I forgot bout this product till recently, I saw the offer for it and went ahead to buy not 1 but 3 stickers to decorate my beri empty looking walls.

Living room:

I have a pretty huge living room by today's standard and the walls are quite empty even with my 2 Mickey jigsaw, neber have the time or mood to complete the other 3  but then still cannot take up all the empty spaces. So I decided to paste some of the deco on the wall behind the sofa, which I initally wanted to apply a layer of those special wall paper.

The onli thing that stops me is the pricing.1.8K for 1 wall onli.OMG. Daylight robbery, I figured that I can think of other ways to deco the wall. Hehe this time, I brough a set of flowers with butterflies/insects sticker to paste on the wall. Complete with the pink painting I requested during renovations, it look like spring all year round now in my living room. Very girlish is hubs' comments but then he cannot do anyting bout it. I did wanted to paste my fav snow flakes but on 2nd tots it will onli suits the up coming X-mas and after which will makes it look like over-due deco, thus brought this flowery design.

Its Spring time all year round!!!!

 Kitchen door:

My kitchen has a glass door living room and kitchen, though under use, I am afraid 1 day, some 1 might walked straight into it without realising the door is pull out. The problem with glass door is, it is transparent.
Been searching for someting to paste on the door to make it more visible, even though you are sleeply. I do not want those aninmals prints/flowers or wat so ever themes. I wan something associated with food since this is the doorway to kitchen.

Found the perfect stickers this time with the various breads/muffins/coffees design as though as you are entering a cafe. This is the closest to the food theme I can find. But then application of these stickers are a killer man.

Unlike the previous flowers theme, these sticker had onli the outline of the items, making them flimsy. Thus during application, many a times, I need to pull out the stickers to re-apply to get the correct shape. Then again, I am afraid while pulling them out, I would tear up the stickers accidentally. Thus I had a hard time gettng the various shapes rite. Spent a good 2 hrs doing these up.

The end product, makes me have a sense of accomplishment. 2hrs not wasted!!

Coffee, tea or me?

Study room:

Lastly, I brough a world map. Found it interesting, I had always like the world map and the onli thing now is to decide where to stick it on. Had too many empty walls tat is..

After discussion with hubs, we decided to stick it up in the study room. Makes more sense as the kids will be using this room for studies next time, thus having something educational in this room fits the image.heheh...
Am pretty happie with the outcome, now I stared at it whenever I study in the room. hur hur..

Where is Singapore?

Hubs make me promised not to buy any more of the stickers as for now as he is afraid I would turn our hse in to a kindergarden look alike with all the pasting.

Okie, I shall stop of the time being as there are no more discounts oredi..Hehe if I ever see the discounts again, there is no promise what I will or will not do...:)

Of lions and lioness

While on our way home, we were toking bout some animals topic and hubs suddenly got reminded by a joke made by me thousands of years ago and started teasing me.

It started with an innocent trip to the zoo, back when I still have access to free zoo passes, it used to be 1 of our fav dating place..There was this once, while at the lion enclosure, hubs found me squatting down there trying hard to peep under the lions who were walking about.

Puzzled, he asked me wat I was doing, and I replied I was trying to differentiate between the male and female. He then started luffing so hard that he nearly rolled on the floor. In between his laughters, he asked me whether had I not learnt in school that the lion is distinguishable by its mane while lioness do not have it?

I pondered hard..Seriously I tink I didnt pick this up from sch, neither did mummy tell me or I read frm anywhere else. How was I to know?

Today, he went 1 step further to probe :

He asked me, den why do I think there are lions with mane and some without? So I told him, I just assume some have more hair, others do not, why am I suppose to tink so much of the hair on the lion's head?

"So you mean some have hair, others are just customers of Bejing 101?" he asked again..

"Ya la, something like tat lo" I replied.

"Lucky for you that you've got me telling you this GK, else next time your children will suffer" he went on

"How so?"

Since he was so high on this subject, he went on to act out a scenario, assuming that I had taught our kid the wrong thing, 1 fine day the kid went n told his fwen bout what I taught him..

Kid saying to his fwens " But my mummy says can differentiate lions by lookin under them to see their reproductive organs"

Kid's Fwen:" You mean you dunno lion have mane while lioness dun?"

Kids" My mummy neber teach me wat.."

Kid's fwen started to luff at him.

Kid came running home tell me that its all my fault that he got teased in sch for not knowing lions have mane and he tot they just have more hair than the other lions.

He got so happie that this tot that he keep luffin at me on the way home, all the way making those noisy sound simitating a kid saying " my mummy neber teach me wat"

Then suddenly he stopped and look at me, "eh, you think your mummy knows about this or not? did you asked her before? scarily she aso dunno..."

Ok lo, since you so happie rite? Wait till I go ask my mummy infront of you, see whether you can luff so happily or not..HMMMFFFFFFFFFFF.......

Simple fare

Most will know by now that hubs is a much better cook den I though we both took home econs bak in sec sch...Eh, I tink mine is home econs, u noe the mandatory subject in sec 1& 2? I remember clownin in class, making my partner cook while I do clean up, chopping, reading instructions out loud etc.. I was however, especially good with handicraft like cross stitch, t-shirt designing...Nah..tat was years AGO....

Hub on the other hand, took a much sophisticated version of home econs known as Food & Nutrition in upper secondart years (luckily my sch did not have this option) and he did real cooking..Unlike me clowning ard in class, he told me he scored a decent B4 in the subject..Mine home econs is A1 if its of any consolation..(theory good, teacher did taste the food I cooked) hehhe...

Anyways, coming back to present, my hubs is the cook of the house, master of the kitchen while I happily pluck myself on the sofa waitin for food to be serve than helping to clear the table b4 going bak to the sofa again.heee.. All the while, things pretty much remains the same, till he got sick..

He was so weak that he cannot move much and of cuz had no appetite. Sick aso muz eat rite? Especially he have got a glutton wife...So I took the chance and told him that I will cook for a change. For an instance, he have me the "will you burn down my kitchen"look. Hey!!! I did some cooking b4 kk? Back when the hse was not renovated yet..没良心。。He forgot bout it le!!

I had not planned to cook any thing complicated, since he is sick. So, we sticked to porridge, steam cod fish, fried egg with sliver fish and my favourite 豆苗。。。Seriously I can do better, but I am just lazy and since he is wayyyyyyy better than me, why show off infront of the master?

I stick to the simple fare for a change, whahaha and satisfies my craving for a porridage and steam cod fish..Something he will not take if not for being sick..hehehe

Then on fri, I took leave to stay at home to mug, and being the lazy bum, I raid my fridge for anything that I can cook for lunch. The best thing bout having the hse back is, I can store lots of food in my fridge and can open and see what I wannna cook as n when I feel like it..Feels so damn good.

Found pork and sichuan veggie and decided to anyhow stir fry them..heheh Cooked porridge again and then lastly decided to fried an egg with sliver baits...Just like tat lunch is serve within 10mins...Such simple fare is the most suitable for lazy plp like me on lazy days where I juz wanna fill my tummy...
