Standing Proud and Green
NP: RM17.50, Warehouse Price: RM13

My Verdict:

We bought our first 2 bottles of HAD last Nov — I was 30wks then — at Pureen’s Warehouse Sale. It was selling at RM10 each, a definite super saver! But unfortunately today, at the same sale again, inflation has finally taken its course.

What I like about HAD is how it could remove poopoo stains like it was never there. Just like how they do it on TV: 1) Rub some HAD on the spot, 2) Let it sit a while, 3) Rinse and 4) Poof! Gone and stain free.

HAD is perfect for cleaning Cloth Diaper shells and inserts as it contains no enzyme and softener that would reduce the CD’s absorbency. After 4 months of daily soiling, Natey’s Autumnz CD remains “almost” stain free *yay*

To date we have already used 8 bottles. Besides using this for Natey’s laundry every night, I also use it for my nursing bras and breastpads.

Why I only gave it a 4 star? HAD would be perfect if it was completely toxin free. I wouldn’t mind a little fragrance in it too, because sometimes you do need a little perfume to mask the nasty baby mess

If you are looking for a almost baby friendly and earth friendly detergent, for RM13 this would be as good as it gets

My Verdict:

One word: Satisfied!

I am indeed very happy with this wonderful toy. Thank you to my Dad once again for getting it for us! ♥

To date I’ve made: 1) Puree — Avocado and Apple, 2) Steam & Puree — Pumpkin, Sweet Potatoes, Carrots and Sweet Potatoes with Carrots 3) Smoothies — Avocado and Orange (that’s for us! *hehe*) and 4) Blend Bananas as cake toppings

It is really easy to use just as the video demonstrated. Once you’ve prepared all your ingredients, just throw everything in, steam, flip, blend and serve *wahh*

For once it is not just a marketing gimmick, but one that really live up to its promises

Definitely no regrets!

From Grandpa to Mommy for Baby
♥ Natey says thank you, GungGung! ♥

Before I begin this post — I am so tempted to gloat but shan’t — I am humbled by the fact that I am so blessed *points above*

I’ve been coveting over this 3-step-wonder since I found out about it while researching on starting solids earlier this month. Unfortunately everywhere is out of stock and was also a bit too pricey for our budget *sulks*

So you can imagine my excitement when I found out that Babyland SS2 still had a few and my Dad was generous to offer it as a gift — he already gave us Little Bean Sterilizer – for his beloved 1st Grandson. Thank you, Pa! *hugs*

I already had it all planned out to get it the next day after Natey’s playdate in the evening. Calling to check beforehand was just me being kiasu. If I didn’t, then this post wouldn’t exist because they only had one left *thanks heaven!*

At 10am Saturday morning — I can’t wait! — we went to bring “my” cool toy home. And here it is now sitting on my dining table, assembled and shiny new *waahh*

I’ve been so busy with Natey that I’ve not tried it out yet. Hopefully somewhere this week I’ll put on my Ratatouille outfit and take it for a spin. Once done, I’ll post a Part 3. The husband is already scheming on smoothies making

Here’s to quick wholesome homemade goodies for Natey! And delicious side orders for the parents *cheers*

I’m now drooling over this yummy making machine. As its name suggests, it steams and blends all in one knob. Just throw everything in, steam, flip, blend and serve. Isn’t that just fantabulous! *wahh*

Philips Avent Combined Steamer and Blender
NP: RM399, Sale Price: RM319.20
Total Savings: RM79.80

Features
Nutritious meals made easy
* Compact design for easy storage
* Easy water filling
* Few parts to clean
* Steam and flip jar over to blend

Prepares baby food for every stage of weaning
* Blends also meat, fish and pulses
* Powerful blending performance
* Suitable for sauces and finger food

Helps preserve nutrients & texture
* Efficient steam cycle
* Retains cooking liquids

What I like about this compact little gadget is the possible time saved. Although steaming is an easy task, it could eat up about 30-45mins preparation time depending on ingredients — 1) put water in pot, 2) put ingredients in elevated dish, 3) wait for boil, 4) wait to cook, 5) wait to cool, 6) remove and throw into blender *yawns*

Ask any Mommies and they’ll tell you that they will gladly exchange an arm and foot for those golden minutes. Or anything that could help around the house. So it is easy to fall prey to this magic convenience

Watch the demo video below and see just how easy it is to make wholesome homemade goodies for your baby ♥

I really wanted to run out and buy this after watching the video. Unfortunately everywhere is Out of Stock! Maybe that’s a blessing in disguise? *hmm*

I was hoping to experiment with it before Natey starts taking solids. Looks like I’ll just have to do the conventional steaming for now. As for the blender, Popo will have to loan Mommy her super canggih Magimix!

Or Green Thumb means having the ability to make plants grow. And the evident you see below, suggest me otherwise *sobs*

Scubby: Mommy wants me to say I did it!

RIP, Beloved Japanese Roses
Feb 2009 to June 2009

I’m guilty of killing my plants. How many has it been? And it is always the same returning sickness — the leaves would be infested with tiny white bugs. I’ve changed the soil and put in organic pesticides, I even got new pots but they still die *sigh*

Would I ever have a green balcony? And I don’t mean the colour

And this is my Prey! *stomps**evil laughter*

As much as I enjoyed watching A Bug’s Life over caramel glazed popcorn and a chilly iced Coke, in reality, Ants are a Pest to my home. Isn’t it for you? Each time when I find a dotted six legged trail, I would get all worked up *fumes*

Immediately, I will be in my predator mode, following the ant trail ~~like a possessed nutcase~~ to where its nest is located. Once I do, there is no second thought of the word Mercy *HA HA HA* And the husband is “amused” with his crazy bride.

This is what I use, available at most supermarkets

My Verdict:

It works almost all the time

Don’t use the yellow case provided within. It is a bit wasteful to use a whole packet for 1 ant trail. I usually pour a good amount on the flat surface near the nest. I will keep the remaining for the next use — make sure it is air tight.

Within a day, all the ants will be gone! Happily devouring themselves *evil grin*

If only all Ants are cute cartoon characters

Just like little Princess Dot

I’m now waiting for the pesky red ants to take the King Kong bait. They are crawling too near to my Koko Krunch cereal, and we cannot let them enjoy our chocolatey goodness. Else, they’ll get addicted too and bring a whole army the next time! *LOL*

I am pleased to declare that I am done moving furniture around. Oh how I wished I can say the same about those bunnies! *shoots*

And the results: 1) the overturned living room is good for somersaults, 2) laid a cosy haven for afternoon siestas – am I becoming my robies? – 3) makeshift junior’s nest into temporary laundry room – this is what happens when you live in a condo – 4) and as for the rest of the spaces, they are permanently unmovable to me.

I give myself a few months. And then, I will be moving ‘em furniture again.

Seriously? Seriously! *Meredith’s signature sigh* I’ve got to find something else to do besides cleaning the house.

It’s been almost a month and I haven’t quite covered every nook and cranny yet thanks to the indefinite construction outside our window. It takes the dust two days to travel from there to here, and then we’ll have dust bunnies hopping around everywhere – and on everything horizontal – again! *whining housewife*

I’ve never really considered myself a clean freak, but this bunny open season has gotten the better of me. Imagine yourself, sniffing around the house to hunt for pink – why are they pink?!? – fluffy cotton liked bunnies under the table, against the wall, below the bed and sofa, etc on all fours…

Seriously? Seriously! *sigh* I’ve got to find something else better to do besides cleaning the house.

Why? Because I’ve just blogged one whole entry about: DUST BUNNIES! ^.^

loonloon this entry is dedicated to you. and yes, i am “that” free! lol. overlooking my balcony is what i would call an eyesore. hence the wooden blind – required to be down 24/7!

the dust i get from them makes me “love” my white tiled floors. the only cleaning resort i have is going down on all fours with a cloth (don’t be a pervert boys!) lol. so be glad that you don’t have any of these as neighbours. savanna is due to be done this sept. but the executive apartments goes on indefinitely – it has been TWO years…
