Jeju is a Korean family run restaurant situated behind Raffles Hotel, Singapore. Don’t expect fancy Korean interior but superb and value added food. Go in a group for fun and noise is alright. After a day’s work, I am glad we found a homely place to unwind. Price $$ Food 4/5 Ambience 3/5
I am a blue and white tableware fan. Royal Copenhagens’ is definitely in my dream list (if I strike enough lottery to build a showcase at home and buy its complete set). This cafe is inside Takashimaya (Singapore). Moon and I were window shopping after work and dinner, we had coffee and dessert. If you plan to visit Singapore with girlfriends or alone, put this place into your list.

This is my new rice cooker. My old rice cooker and slow cooker (both Panasonic ) can retired into the darkest corner in my kitchen. It has become an essential equipment for me to prepare meals for my husband, 4-year old and 2-year old. When I reach home I can expect food hot, ready to be serve at anytime. I tried slow cooking red kidney bean (without having to soften beans in water beforehand) soup after the kids went to bed at 9pm and next morning it’s ready to be serve, soft and fluffy bean and sweet soup.
I must admit the instruction manual is disappointing. There are no recipes. I am a part time cook therefore instructions and recipes are very important to educate a user like me.
Read today The Star Two page T4-No Child’s Play and page T6 Stay-at-home dad. I am a mother of 2 boys. My husband spent time to be with me and our eldest boy during confinement month which was a learning and bonding experience. He was not able to do so during our second boy due to work commitment. So the younger boy is not so close to his papa. I would support the idea of granting paternity leave for both government and private sector. It can help to build better relationship in families.
I am wondering why the HR guy in this company being so insensitive about individual different needs. Does every family in this world function as they are being programmed to live in A way? HR department is the one of the functions in an organization that take care of staffs and ensure reasonable working conditions that effective for both organization and staffs. If 2-3 working days are sufficient, I think that would be workable for those who are still living in and before the eigthties.

23.Sept.06 We took the boys to Dunkin Donut at Mid Valley for breakfast. Cinnamon and double chocolate are the only ones I would eat. As for three of them anything except what I am having will do. As I was looking at my would be 2-year old and would-be 4 year old, I told my other half…
Me: If I died and you guys do not have time (or capability?) to prepare me a lavish banquet to offer me, just buy me these cinnamon and double chocolate…
Other half: Ok, ok… (busy eating)
Me: If you guys offer me chicken rice or McDonalds, I will come back to haunt you all. 
Few years ago my mom (a Taoist) asked me if my sister in law is a Christian since she have never seen her offer jossstick. I mocked her,”If she is a Christian, either you and dad will be hungry ghosts or eating McDonalds during Ching Ming…” 
My beloved grandfather passed away few years ago. I am very tempted to offer KFC, Domino Pizza or Pizza Hut’s Pizza to him. He loves fast food so much, he used to treat us-his grandchildren Pizza Hut. He lived till 93.
My sister in law is expecting to deliver her “accidental” baby after Chinese New Year. I told my niece that she better hope for another baby brother instead.
Me: Wen, do you want a brother or a sister?
Wen: I want a sister, no more brother like Chong (her sibling)
Me: You better pray hard you’ll have a baby brother.
Wen: Why????
Me: Coz, if you get a baby sister, your room will be halved, then you will only have one brother and as the eldest sister, you will need to look after both of them like a maid.
Wen: What if I get a baby brother???
Me: You will be a princess coz you are the only daughter… (everyone laughed except Wen still confused..)
My parents have a son and three daughters. Three of us served our eldest brother like maids. It worth while to make Wen learn of the princess and the maid roles
I live in a “lovely” neighbourhood in Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. Lovely if you can get use to the environment and people or else it may seems to be another “slum”. It took me 4 years to get used and appreciate. This is where my beloved other half grew up.
Why butanokakuni.wordpress.com?
My other half and I had a dish named Kakuni in an izakaya at Plaza Hartamas which was very delicious BUT the portion and the price is exorbitant. At that time, the portion is about 1″(W)x1″(L)x1″(H), cost RM7!! We like Kakuni very much and I am still trying to cook a Kakuni as good as the izakayas’.
Have a look what Kakuni is at Obachan’s sweet website http://kokonuggetyumyum.blogspot.com/2006/05/buta-no-kakuni.html
