Project Runway

Did a Project runway cake for my bestie's daughter who is turning 8. Initially, my grand plan was to mold chairs to put at the side of the runway... but time got the better of me. So I did the scissors, push pin cushion, measuring tape and thread instead.

I covered the cake with Bakel's chocolate fondant which can be gotten at Kitchen Capers Reviews of the taste was good. I used the Bratz toys that I ordered as models....




My younger daughter says she must be in front cos she is the prettiest.

Most Endearing Quality

We start our day with a MEQ-most endearing quality, just to edify each other. It really works.

Edward and I did our Marriage Preparation Course way back in 1997. It was conducted at a couple's home over 6 weekends. After completing MPC, we felt that it benefited us alot and when we were invited to go for the United Marriage Encounter in 2004, we accepted the invitation and went. Our first UME experience was chartered here.

This is 5 years forward after our last weekend. We still use many of the tools and lessons we learnt and apply it to our marriage. Ed and I really believe that such courses will help enhance marriages and build up one another. There has been many broken marriages amongst our friends and we wish we could just do more to help.

Recently, we did another weekend, but this time as a facilitating couple. It was held at Harris Hotel in Batam, organised by our church, PPHBC


The weekend is run very similarly to UME with some slight modifications. There were 10 couples and from the testimonies shared on the last day...we are very thankful and happy to know that just by committing 48 hours to each other without work, kids, phone.... makes such difference to their married lives.


Here's us baring our souls and sharing our feelings.


and here's this 2 jars of cookies that caused me to put on weight because after every sharing session, it will beckon me over.


My brother did a good photoshop of all my moles... now I look like I just had a whitening facial from SKII... haha.. if not, you can see our glow from the weekend lor..


Here's all 10 glowing couples.

It is a wonderful gift you can give to your spouse, yourself and your children. Just attend one of them. Guarantee!

Mother&Child Cupcake Decorating Class



I had 2 pairs of mum-child this morning and decided to rope in my 2 girls as well to join in the fun. We had a great time and so nice to see mother and daughter learning together and having bonding time with each other.


Rena watching Ashley intently... wondering if she is doing the right thing.


Siniha(pardon me if I got her name wrong) meant to roll out a rectangular strip and got a round prata instead. She was so tickled!


Yup, it was an all girls' affair this morning.
