We need car to go places

I see many cars on the road today, no doubt cars are important transportation we used on the road. Talking of cars and transportation, I found this amazing site to share with you. We have public bus, train and other transportation. Somebody prefer having car to go places today, somebody choose to wait for the bus to come but not everyone because of packed bus with crowded people.

Many parents prefer to send their children by cars to school or kindergarten. Some parents even seek for private transportation for the children. Everyone find it safer with car and unlike packed as school bus or mini van. No doubt we are having more and more cars today on the road.

I find parents are willing to purchase cars for their children to go college or University for their children's safety. Somebody told me that bus is provided by college but it takes a long time for them to return home. If you have a choice I am sure you choose the best transportation for your child that is affordable to you.

During my college days, I use public transportation by buses. I took few buses to reach the college. After a year I decided to train and LRT to reach college. We see the benefits of having a car and not having a car. If we go shopping for weekly grocery, car be better option as we put in the groceries.

What do you think the biggest worry when buying a car? I think it is the finance, and how many years you need to finance the car. You either choose to buy new car or second hand car, my dad chooses second hand car because of cheaper price.

Thanks to niece and sister-in-law making this night happened and everyone enjoy the yummylicious cookies and brownie. My niece says that the cookies tastes like Famous Amos cookies. Yum... Yum..

First get start with the cranberry white chip cookie, niece busy with arranging them before putting on the tray to bake them. My son likes the cookies so much he ate so many that next day he's complaining of having sort throat.

My toddler almost choke to death

It's scary moment that I want to share with everyone, whether you are parent or not. We should always watch out everything around us. One night my toddler chocked on the toy he hold in his hand. It was a Lego toy which he dismember the bod part of the Iron Man and put in his mouth. Lucky my sister-in-law saw it happened and faster pat his back very hard so that he vomits out the part of Lego in his mouth. It's not just the toy he vomited but also milk everywhere on sister-in-law's bed.

It was at night, it happen so fast. It doesn't matter if the Lego is big or small. Though it stated not suitable for 3 yr old and below, he has passed 3 years old but he's still naughty putting everything in mouth no matter food or non food item.

It's not mini Lego, it's medium size Lego that comes with characters of Avengers.

Anyway I am glad he's alright, still we need to becareful of what's he's taking and watch over him. It's a lesson we never forget.

It was quick action by my sister-in-law that save my son's life. According to my sister-in-law it was the hand part of the toy that he was choking.

These small beans eventually found its way to Europe and took root by the 18th century, but it wasn’t until the 20th century that the Americans began to discover and prize the healthful properties that soya bean offers.

The new and improved F&N NutriSoy Soya Milk with Calcium is a product of our efforts. The drink has no cholesterol and lactose and is lower in sugar, making it an excellent choice for those who want to ensure a healthier lifestyle for themselves and their loved ones.

Son visited dentist today

This morning headed to Taipan USJ, but first we head to Court 2 for breakfast. Over there I like to eat the curry mee it's not spicy for me, so I enjoy it but today I decided to have roasted chicken rice. Son's having burger with fries, not even half way eating the burger he says his toothache. It's so pain that he didn't want to continue to eat. My dear and I heartache to see him in pain, right away holding my cell phone I called the usual dentist that we visited. Sad to tell you that the clinic only accept patient that have prior booking for dentist. No doubt I called up to ask and was told that they are full and win patient every 15 minutes.

Then I message three of son's classmate's mom to ask. They suggested SS15 dentists, another is Empire Shopping Gallery. None of them that my dear wants to bring him to go since we are near to Taipain Usj, we decided to have a look there for dentist.

Lucky that dear having good eyes, spotted the dentist clinic opposite of Paparich restaurant. We went up and the staff is very friendly and though we were told that we need to wait for long she didn't give us any long face to see. We waited patiently for two patients to go see dentist.

Dentist checked his teeth and ask where he felt pain, then inform us that he needs to extract not one but two big gums of his. No kidding, son received 1st injection but still feeling pain when dentist tried to extract, he receive another 3 injections before the extract and crying so hard in pain. Dentist manage to extract 2 big gums and show it to us.

The dentist is in his 40s and he's well experience.

If you love cooking, you'll know that it's difficult to have the fried food that you love be less oily. Especially if you are using kitchen towel, I'm happy to tell you that I find this kitchen towel works for me. Scroll down read to find out...

above Scott Calorie Light Launch : (From L-R) From Kimberly-Clark Malaysia, Danny Tan, Managing Director, Emily Chong, Marketing Manager, Soo Woon Yee, Marketing Director, and Chef Florence Tan at the launch of Scott® Calorie Light.

Malaysians love to eat, who want to enjoy favourite local treats but with fewer calories? 

Brand-new Scott® Calorie Light Premium Towel is specifically designed for superior oil absorbency, to help tackle one of the main concerns of fellow Malaysians – high calorie consumption. The product is made to absorb oil easily and effectively, especially the excess oil from the surface of foods, hence one could enjoy delicious great food yet with a reduced calorie intake from fat by up to 25 %*!

Many Malaysians consume more than the recommended daily calorie intake – the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization found that the average Malaysian consumes more than 2,900 kcal per day**, well in excess of the recommended 2000 calories per day for adult men and 1500 for adult women.

^* Based on the reading of calories from fat (Kcal/100g), tests were conducted by third party international laboratories using 3 Scott® Calorie Light towels on fried chicken.

**data from 2005-2007

I'm mommy of two boys, I know that it's important to maintain healthy lifestyle in family not just about outdoor but also indoor. Where you need to have good household brands to use, namely the Brand-new Scott® Calorie Light Premium Towel, I find it very good because I have tried using X brand and compared it with this brand. It's absorb oil easily and effectively, I can see the difference right away. 

 I received this pack of Brand-new Scott® Calorie Light Premium Towel, I decided to share my experience with you on using this with X brand kitchen towel. 

 Above is for you to see I compare the Brand-new Scott® Calorie Light Premium Towel with X brand, X brand is easily torn when I just want to tear a piece of towel. Brand-new Scott® Calorie Light Premium Towel is easily to tear a piece for usage.
