Dining By The Beach (Port Klang)

 See, the scene of the beach was so peaceful........

This picture was taken by the side of the restaurant, you can see barges and small vessels nearby

This is the place that we are having lunch, the night scene is superb, i did take pictures with my handphone previously, but.....the view is not so clear, after all, i am not a professional photographer!

Resuming work after CNY is definitely no fun, and resuming school for the kids also a problem. We have had a very very long holiday during CNY. I no mood working, hubby shared the same feeling, while Carmen also crying not wanting to go to school.

I ask my immediate boss to treat us a meal for our department, as bonus already out before CNY. She agreed, and we went o this restaurant after we resume work on CNY. Since we cant go far during lunch hour, so i suggest this place to eat, some more it's very near to our office.

I have come across this place for dining with hubby before CNY on one fine evening, whereby, we dont know where to eat. We went round and round Port Klang and found this place. We have tried on the food and night view is marvelous. The price of the food also consider reasonable. Many of the giant organization, politicians and also artists has been dining there also.

To me, i like the place, the view, and also the food. Because of the food is so tempting, i forgotten to take down any pictures. *Alamak*

My Secret Recipi ~ Baby Food Puree3


 The colour of the papaya puree looks tempting!

After sometimes with the new trial recipes......i finally have no more idea of what to feed Jeanne. I need to browse online for more recipes. Sometimes, purchasing is also difficult. The avocados was totally out from the market from the past 1 month. I try look everywhere, could not really find even 1 avocado fruits. Now the stock is coming back, but very limited.

I want her to consume fruits daily, ease her bowel movement as she consume soy based formula, which makes passing motion difficult for her, even with lots of water. Poor girl, hope Jeanne and Carmen will outgrown their allergic and sensitivity to cow's milk very soon. But i know this may happen in another few years time, as per doctor advised.

Chinese Medicine from Hai-O

The bird's nest bought from Hai-O yesterday

Poor Carmen with swinging mood and look at her Panda eyes!

I never believe in Chinese medicine would heal children sickness.......

But lately, i decided to give it a try. Carmen has fever comes and go twice before and after CNY. Even cured, no longer fever persist, but i feels that she is no longer active as previous, not energetic, and slow motion. She is always with her panda eyes, even she sleep early, and tends to cry a lot, and she is very moody.

Perhaps one of the cause is because she has a new teacher, she is not close to her yet, while her usual teacher Nalinie was away on maternity leave and swinging mood cause she is just like us......still in holiday mood after this few weeks long weekend break. Haha.......

She always complaint to me that she have headache and also stomachache. I know that this 2 types of illnesses cant be cured with modern medicine, as doctor would normally prescribed paracetamol to ease the pain. Hubby suggested that we bring Carmen to see chinese physician in traditional medical hall, Hai-O, as he often frequented there to buy some antelope water to ease body heat.

We brought Carmen to see the physician yesterday night. The physician commented that Carmen internal was extremely heaty, so he precribsed some chinese medicine in powder form for her. It's not cheap, one small tub already cost RM30 for a few days consumption. Well, we will try and see how it goes.

I saw some bird's nest sold there are very different to those i bought previously, must be stored inside the fridge, looks very fresh and the sales there highly recommended me to purchase for trying as he said the taste and texture is superb. It's from the natural cave swiftlet from a place called Pasir Panjang,Indonesia. I bought 7 small pieces for trial already cost me RM420 with discounted rate. 2 pieces is equivalent to our chinese rice bowl, enough for my 2 girls only. So expensive, anyhow, it's for both my darling consumption!

Mini Rocking Chair



I was so surprise that my MIL bought a new cane baby rocking chair for Jeanne during CNY. She said we can place Jeanne on the rocking chair while we have our meal at home. But, i didn't work out, Jeanne was too active, she can never sits silent on anywhere, even in the car seat. We have to hold her while she was sitting on it, rocking her to the front and back, so on and so forth......

It reminds me of my grandma old rocking chair that placed over the balcony of our old house. She used to sit on the rocking chair resting, and after she passed away, the rocking chair was still placed there, but most of the time covered by dust and spider web. It looks horrible and scary to all of us (my elder sister and my younger brother) When winds blowing and the chair slowly rocking non-stop, especially during the windy days. I still can recall this very clearly on my mind!

Water Fun @ Penang


 Carmen in the pool, playing by herself

Here come Jeanne, by the poolside with the help of granny revealing her sexy belly

I purposely wanted to take this shot, i noticed this piece of stone is similar to heart-shaped

 This is Jeanne's first time experience to step on the sand

Both girls busy with their own activities, really enjoying to the fullest!

During our Penang trip, i noticed that both girls like water very very much! Both Carmen & Jeanne will be in the pool a few times a day, and also we will stroll thru the beaches at every evening, to view the sunset. We never have a chance to see sunrise, as we cant wake up so early, some more, the hotel was just too comfortable to stay. My n-laws also will be in water with the 2 girls, just to entertain their 2 golden grandchildren!

I think the sea water works for my sensitive skin. The red spot and itchiness on my body is getting lesser after soaking myself in the sea for around 5-10 minutes, and while i back to hotel's bathroom for a shower, i noticed i bring along a huge grasps of golden sands in my pockets! Hahahaha....... 

CNY Costumes


 Carmen trying to carry her little sister in my governance
I like this picture as i think it has the traditional feel & taste

The usual CNY, i will dress Carmen in Cheongsam. Carmen already owned 3 pairs of cheongsam. But this year gonna be a diffrent one, i bought Carmen & Jeanne both a pair samfu. Jeanne is still young, will not fit in a cheongsam, even the smallest size, some more, she cant walk yet, it wont look nice on her. The pair of samfu only worn once on the CNY eve, during our reunion dinner and then, back to the storage box again.Such a waste!

I managed to snap a few pictures of them while they were playing in our bedroom of my in-laws's house after the dinner. Hubby asked me why i buy pyjamas for Carmen to wear during CNY? Do you think Carmen's outfit looks like a pyjamas? OMG!!!!!

Chines New Year 2010

 The view at the surrounding of the hotel, looks so peaceful despite HOT weather

Carmen enjoying her sand mining activities while Jeanne experience her 1st time in the sea

It seems that CNY will be over in another few days time. The happier time tends to fly off without us noticing it. This year CNY is a very happenning one, as we have Jeanne with us. This is her first year celebrating CNY while Carmen went thru her 3rd CNY (if not mistaken). We spend most of our time outdoor, traveling most of the time, except the first few days staying at my in-laws house and also my parents house.

Hubby only have most of his off time of the year during CNY, either too little work or too much work pending, he have to take his break. So, i normally will plan our holiday.This year onwards, we will go holiday on every CNY. I want him to spend some quality time with our kids. We have chosen to Penang & Genting for this CNY. Perhaps next year will be to other further destinations, as both the girls will be bigger by that time.
