August 05, 2011 No more rain

Let's brainstormmmmm!!! What should we prepare for recovering chickenpox patients???

Mummy needs more brains badly now /o\
Menu-planning is always a heavy brain-exercise :( It's even more challenging now >,<
NO tofu;
NO bean;
NO egg;
NO soy sauce;
NO chicken rice (although Iroko only eats chicken rice WITHOUT chicken, it contains black soy sauce);
NO oyster sauce (even vegetarian mushroom oyster sauce because it contains soybean);
NO kaya pao... arrrgggghhhh!!!
The worst thing is NO bread and other food that "HUAT" (contains yeast/raising agents)...

*happy lunch* includes:
Stir fried English gourd & carrot with anchovies + sweet corn soup + cheddar cheese (snack) 

童言童語：
小妞開始會唱歌後，每當“時機”到時，她都會好好把握機會，與其說練唱，倒不如說是複習歌詞。。。
比如看見茶，她就會高唱『客人來』，就只為了想告訴人家，杯子裡裝著的是茶（。。。再敬一杯茶）。

要是看見燈籠或類似燈籠的燈飾，下一秒，就會聽到『螢火蟲』，因為她想說小燈籠（。。。這邊亮，那邊亮，好像許多小燈籠）。

車子一進地下隧道，她會要媽咪陪她唱“I like to tunnel, I'm a termite, tunnel feeling free...” （Hi-5裡的一首歌！） 真的是‘咁都得’ >,<

看見玩具馬，旋轉木馬，甚至是木鞦韆，『小毛驢』就會在耳邊響起--純粹因為騎馬的動作！！

聽見飛機的聲音，就唱『小飛機』；看見直升機，就“chopper chopper helicopter flying all around...” （也是Hi-5裡的歌）
。。。

音樂，真的不折不扣是“國際語言”！！

【Cookie Monster 。曲奇怪獸】

August 03, 2011 Bright rainy day

Butterfly-pie flowers (also known as clitoria or bunga telang in Malay),
a natural  antioxidant, give food natural, pretty shade of blue.

The "evident" (today's *happy lunch*) reaffirms that the colour extracted from butterfly-pie flowers is BLUE!! It's BLUE!!! (^.^)V
Not grey!! Not the colour mummy got for BLU, which was extracted from dried flowers.
As the lunch was served, mummy was expecting Iroko to ask,"How come the rice is BLUE?" Surprisingly, she didn't!! blekkk...

*happy lunch* includes:
Grapes (starter) + stir-fried lettuce + deep fried anchovies +
old cucumber soup + assorted biscuit (dessert)

童言童語：
聆聽2，3歲小孩的說話真的是育兒過程其中最有趣的事情之一。
從呢喃兒語開始，到鸚鵡式學語，再到比較互動的語言交談，孩子脫口而出的詞句或某些發音總會讓大人忍俊不禁，又哭又笑。

小妞有個“經典”詞彙的發音是媽咪特別想記錄下來的---PLASTICINE!
雖然媽咪糾正了無數次，小妞還是改不過來，總是把它念成“pat-ee-sin” @.@
第一次，媽咪和爹地都聽到一頭霧水，小妞重複說了好幾次，還是要不到她的黏土。
第二次，小妞終於知道媽咪把黏土收在哪裡，就指著那盒放在高架上的黏土直嚷“pat-ee-sin, pat-ee-sin, mummy, please 謝謝！”
媽咪也終於聽懂什麼是pat-ee-sin！！
那時，小妞剛好兩歲又一個月。

最近的某天，小妞跟爹地要“pat-ee-sin”時，鬼馬的老爸就整了整他的寶貝。
“Daddy, can I have some pat-ee-sin?”
(小妞很喜歡拋書包，說話時都要用數量詞，有時還來個“a lot so many water”）

“Or you want pat-ER-sin?” （ER = “二”，因為女兒說的pat-EE-sin = pat-1-sin）結果，小妞當然聽不懂她老爸說的冷笑話咯 >,< 在那裡愣了幾秒，就掉頭找媽咪去要她的pat-ee-sin。

【Iroko calls this--ANGRY SEAWEED OWL】

April 27, 2011 A quilt-cover-dried-in-2-hours day!!

Iroko found an Angry Owl this morning in YouTube. That movie clip saves a lot mummy's time and brain-power, hehe...

*happy lunch* includes:
stir--fried French bean with rice sprinkle + fried egg with mushroom & anchovies + watercress soup

Mummy made a Chinese sushi set lunch for Iroko by wrapping the rice and fried egg with seaweed. Oh ya, the "sushi", which served with some thousand island tastes sooooo GOOD!!! (^o^)v

童言童語：
之前有提到小妞最近超喜歡往高處爬，再往地上跳。今天，她又在媽咪的床上蹦蹦跳跳，結果要跳下床時，失去重心，跌了一小絞，敲到了手肘。眼淚快飆出來的小妞馬上看了媽咪一眼，但發現在一邊忙著家務的媽咪沒有察覺她跌到，就即刻往房外走，在外頭跟自己對話，“哎喲，koko可憐咯！”

其實媽咪把事情的經過都看在眼裡，只是假裝看不見，要不然那小妞一定撒嬌，當場大哭一場！

不消10秒，小妞又進到睡房，看見媽咪笑著問她“怎麼了”，她有點怕出糗，佷尷尬地笑笑不語，媽咪忍不住問，“koko fell from the bed, did you?” 小妞馬上回答，“Mummy PANDAI oo!!”
