It's all about Penang

12:10:00 PM
A fascinating fusion of the East and West, Penang embraces modernity while retaining its traditions and old world charm from the Bristish era.  These are reflected in its harmonious multiracial populace and well-preserved heritage buildings which led to George Town being accorded a listing as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site. You could see the influence of the English carved on buildings. Long...Read More

A travel story

Ever since Juan and me got married, I've been eyeing on going for a backpacking trip. A halal relationship makes it even easier for us to travel. No limitations.

Juan's colleague treated us for lunch last week. It was in Bella Marino. Situated along Leandros Lane (behind Burmah Road house where Astro is). They also have another branch in Straits Quay.

Product review: Soap and Glory Face Soap & Clarity

10:04:00 AM
I got my Face Soap And Clarity from Sephora many weeks ago. Didn't had the chance to try it on. The reason being, the breakouts on my face are blooming like mushrooms. I guess because 'grandma' is coming anytime soon. Face Soap And Clarity is a 3-in-1 daily face wash with ultra-soft scrub-beads, plus vitamins, amino acids and Soap & Glory’s exclusive SUPERFRUIT™...Read More

Mummified

1:29:00 PM
You don't know what was going on behind the scene when this photo was taken. Juan blamed the settings of the camera, resulting in a shaky picture. I told him that the setting was the same as yesterday but he kept blaming the camera. I took a sample of his photo and showed to him, it was good but when it was his...Read More

Chicken varuwal

9:23:00 AM
Indian cuisine has been my major like for years. During my trip to India many years back, I was amazed at how much of Indian dishes I have yet to try. Even their vegetarian food were so delicious, not to mention their masala tea, just heaven. So after years of having to eat my chicken varuwal at different Indian restaurants in Penang, I...Read More

Missing the inai

4:35:00 PM
We are turning 3 months this month. By this time, I can't see the inai on my fingers anymore. Some said that, for as long as you have those orange manicure on your fingers, you're consider as newly wed. So I guess, me and Juan no longer one. When I was planning for the big day, it was chaos. So many things to...Read More

Product review: Thinning hair

2:00:00 PM
I have thin hair since I was small. Johnson baby shampoo was my best friend. As I get older, I start purchasing my own shampoo. I have tried a number of over the counter shampoos as well as the hair salon standard. They're either not working or 'almost' working which I can still see strains of hair after I comb. It's like a...Read More

DIY: Colored photo frame

Having to do your own home improvement project can be very interesting and fun at the same time. For the time being, I'm trying to refurbished things that I currently have. Like this old photo frame that was passed down to me, by my mum. The stitches were hand made. Back then, my mum was an avid cross stitched lover. First, I removed...Read More
