Whitney Houston (1963-2012)

I can't sing.
It's not my gift.
If I could, I would want to sing just like you.
Thank you for sharing your gift.
Your songs accompanied me through my growing up years and listening to them evoke many happy, priceless memories.
You left for a better place and is now safe in our heavenly father's arm.
RIP Whitney. Your music will live on and so will you .... in our hearts.

Bake a Cake and Roast a Chicken

It was a day of fun, fun, fun. We decided to cook something for Aunt Cleo's birthday. The kids did a simple baking project while I attempted to roast a chicken for the first time. The cake turned out ok - very little can go wrong with pre-mix <> while my chicken did not really look fabulous, it tasted ok; with just the right amout of salt. 

I am now itching for more simple baking projects with the kids since they enjoyed the experience. Making cookies did come to mind - so is making ginger bread and muffins. I am also itching to try out new recipies myself. Roast chicken is the first and finger crossed for many, many more new adventures. Life is good and am enjoying it.

HAPPY CNY 2012

It was one celebration after another and I am so NOT complaining. Cherishing all the good time with family. We did the norm, eating, visiting relatives, eating, playing pop-pop, watching TV, eating, going back to hometown and more eating in betweens. We made the effort for the kids and as a result, all my cloths are now tight and I have to make extra effort to shed the extra kilos. Still not complaining though as I really enjoyed my holidays. Happy New Year and the may the year of the dragon fire up our passions and bring us good health and abundance wealth!!!.
