My 2 SuperActive Kids

Today is the 2nd time I made my kids dinner since Sept last year. I didn’t really make anything thou. Just boil them ABC soup and fried vegetarian ham for burger.

Soup ingredients was bought for me by my neighbor 2 weeks ago. Burger bun was given by my neighbor yesterday. So….. just utilizing whatever I have in the kitchen as I’m lazy to take them out for dinner.

Ingredients I used today:
1) vegetarian ham
2) raw cabbage
3) raw onion
4) mozzarella cheese
5) tomato sauce and mayonaise
6) burger bun spread with butter and fried a bit on the fying pan

Ed enjoying his vege ham burger.

Ern likes it too.

My ABC soup without meat but beans as substitute. Nmm….. yummy !!!

Ernest got excited after he learnt how to cycle with his big bike last Dec..
Then he started to cycle whatever bike he found in the house….
This bike is not easy to manouver…. It needs skill as it’s real small. One needs a good balance to ride on it.

No CNY mood this year… Christmas tree is still beautifully decorated in my living room. Very lazy to keep….

Too boring at home…. so I pestered my neighbor to make peanut cookies with me. Told her a week earlier… but 2 days ago, she said she hasn’t got time to bake with me. I just replied ok, nevermind…. but she bought all the ingredients this morning …

Went to her house and started frying the peanuts…. crushing and separating the peanut skin, etc..

and here it is…. my first peanut cookies..

In the oven..

After bake… it won’t look shining as my neighbor is a vegetarian… no eggs.

Gave some to my other neighbor… amazingly they love it….. non-stop eating….

For me, I am not satisfied… it doesn’t melt in the mouth… the peanuts are not fine enough… I’ll make more and improve it..

I just received a news 8 hours ago saying that my ex-colleague had passed away due to brain tumor. I was shocked …… my heart pounded fast…. Sad… She was a jolly person.

I remember…
She used to receive flowers from her loving husband on and off….
She will give me the baskets or flower wrappers when she got her new bunch of flower again…
She knew that I love recycling the wrappers…. so… she gave it to me.

I remember…
She used to use her fist and knocked her head…
Saying that she has headache…
I will never see her again..
Her jolly face and her warmth heart..

Sad… but it is better for her now that she doesn’t need to suffer anymore..

May she rest in peace..

2nd time took Ern and Ed for hiking last 2 weeks. It was their as well as my first time using this route. The famous hiking trail Botanical Garden - Penang hill via step trail 46.

We started at 9am. The kids could only managed up to 46…. and we took 45mins to get there. Ern was exhausted. The steps were tough for first timer like us..

Below are some photos taken from my camera phone during the hike.

Ed posing with a walking stick while Ern resting at the back.

Ern and Ed few steps away from 46.

Rest area at 46.
Ern resting.. hahaha… he was really exhausted after the thousands steps..
luckily… there’s still a headphone to cool and relax him..

Me and Ed.. (Ed has a scary expression cas afraid of falling back..)

On our way down..
Ed saw a 1 foot long “kerongkong” … millipede ? He almos cried.

Though it’s tiring, I hope they enjoyed and will join me hiking again.

I bought New Balance All terrain shoe rather than Asics Running shoe… Very much cheaper… Only RM 139 compared to the RM 479.

Nice shoe.. isn’t it ?

So, I went hiking again yesterday with my new shoe….
Though it was my 4th time hiking, I somehow challenged myself up to 84. I think I took 35mins? to 46.. Not feeling good half way up to 46. Felt like vomitting due to lack of oxygen. KC said I used too much energy at the beginning.. anyway, I was charged back again after a short rest. Guess I rested too long from exercising. I was on and off running down to the base while KC, AC and JS walked.

Hiked for 4 times… I think I still prefer running. I prefer sports with speed. Feel great after dashing and get exhausted. Since I do not have a running shoe… I’ll continue hiking… who knows, one day I may turn hiking to trail running.
