【雞蛋變形餐 （3）。The EGG Meals (3)】

The Shapy EGGs series has been adjourned for quite sometimes. Because of the rumour (or truth?)--FaceBook is shutting down soon in March 2011, mummy forced herself to build up the {媽-masak} as quick as possible. Be honest, the progress of buidling and maintaining a blog is so much slower than updating own space in FB. It's more demanding (or mummy is the one who make the job demanding??) as a post in the blog is supposed to be more narrative (to mummy).

Well let's back to the track. Shapy Eggs.

【Dinosaur】

Seriously speaking, the egg was not re-shaped, mummy merely cut into half ;-p In fact, mummy doesn't like this egg dino. Simple reason--it's so rough and ugly as compared to other work of shapy eggs. This one has never been published in FB. Anyhow, mummy changed her mind--there is nothing perfect!! We should learn to accept everything: good or bad, beautiful or ugly or even disgusting like this pity dino... Such a bad experience is a good lesson that drives mummy to perform better in future ;D

【Struggled Mouse】

 The day became so grey suddenly. Not to say being moody or down, but mummy simply found herself quite uncertained and trapped in "yea-&-nay". Should wean Iroko off now or let her be? Should introuduce punishment or maintain a total caning-free caring early child-education? Should emphasise more on the outcomes or the process (childcare and early child education)? Should enroll Iroko to enrichment classes/preschool courses at this age (because kiasu--afraid she will lag behind >,<) or wait until she's mentally, emotionally & mentally ready...

This is one of the most satisfying job of *happy meals* Yipeee ;D

But mummy is quite certain that she is not alone--almost all parents are somehow facing the same dilemmas in relation to childcare/early education. So mummy named it "struggled mouse".

【chopper chopper Helicopter】

Hi-5 has exposed Iroko to the world quite fairly. Iroko is so attracted to helicopter recently because of Hi-5. Mummy noticed the little one tends to learn faster from Hi-5 than what mummy taught! Well, this is another dilemma--is that alright to let the little one watches Hi-5/Baby Eistein/Brainy Baby whenever mummy needs to do her cookings or housechores? Because it seems like switching on the TV is a must every day!!  >,< arghhhhhh Okay, mummy knows well the general and "official" advice is--be moderate!! Control the time, and bla bla bla...
Opps... mummy is off the track. This helicopter egg is not a good one because it's under-cooked. So it became a bit difficult for mummy to shape it. Ended up, it cracked when the ice-cream stick was inserted into it. Another defect is the "body" of the helicopter. Due to "time constraint" (Iroko was hungry when mummy was half way preparing the meal) the sticks were not cut symmetrically... Luckily, Iroko still named it as HELICOPTER!!
