Cendol @ Lunas

Today my cousin brother 'ta bao' cendol for us while we're at my father's house at Lunas. He told me that this is the branch of Kulim famous Taman Harmoni's Cendol stall. Tasted nice together with pulut... RM2... now they provided wider straw.

I have a post on the Taman Harmoni's cendol at http://myfamilysnetbook.blogspot.com/2012/04/tea-time-cendol.html and at my another blog http://siew-sian.blogspot.com/2012/04/cendol-kulim-tmn-harmoni.html

New place for Friday lunch

Today 5 of us (MM, MK, CS, Grace and I) went to a new place at Bandar Putra Kulim for our Friday lunch. Actually MM and CS have been there before and this restaurant was proposed by MM since the other 3 of us never been there before. The foods were quite delicious and I definitely will come again for their other signature dishes.

Ukulele and my supper

After finished my staff meeting at 11pm, it's time to practice my ukulele. BS went out and bought a special 'chicken pork burger' for my supper from the Chinese burger stall at the Jln Raja Uda. Usually we'll call to order and then only go there to collect, took about 5-10 minutes.

Stainless steel racks for my kitchen worktop - housekeeping

Last week, we received our online purchased self-assembled stainless steel racks. We purchased it to replace the existing steel with plastics racks on our kitchen worktop.

The kids were excited whenever there are new things to be assembled, they were helping BS on assembling the racks.

Creative decorated cars exhibition at Tesco Extra Seberang Jaya

Today we went to do our groceries shopping at Tesco Extra Seberang Jaya, unexpectedly there was a creative decorated cars exhibition at the open air empty land in the Tesco Extra compound. We were not really sure what was the exhibition is about, but the in car entertainment's sound were so loud that we were so excited to go to have a look, especially BS. Luckily it was windy and didn't have very strong sunlight that time, we were able to see most of the exhibited decorative cars. Both the boys were very excited to see the cute creative cars because some of the cars were decorated with their favourite cartoon character. I was just able to take a few photos because the weather was quite hot and I also needed to look after the two over excited boys.

Transformer Bot shots

The boys first transformers figures were Bot Shots toy-line, small and cute, auto-transforming when you hit its bumper (collision). It's actually a combat figures with the "Rock, Paper, Scissors" game. 

We bought the first 2 from a departmental store at Sunway Carnival mall about 2 years ago, and others were bought from US and also gift from their 'Er Yi' (my younger sister). Actually there were 11 of them and 3 were repeating model because their 'Er Yi' bought the same package with what we had (3in1 box packaging). I only managed to find 6 of them for the photo, 5 of them still missing :P.

M&M Character candy fan toys

We have 6 M&M Character candy fan toys, all bought during our vacations to calm the boys down while waiting in the line for some attraction spots or waiting for our foods to be served. 

There was M&M's candy inside the tube and on top is a battery operated fan, just press the button for the fan to work... :)

The photo below shows the first 2 M&M fan toys bought during our vacation at Pulau Langkawi in January 2013. Green figurine was belonged to Zi Ming, he didn't care whether the figurine is either a boy or a girl, he just very obsessed with his favorite green color. Both of the fan toys were bought by their 'yeye' (grandpa) while we were shopping at the Billion supermarket.

Next photo shows the other 2 M&M fan toys bought during our vacation at Genting Highland in December 2013. As expected, Zi Ming chose the green color again although he already had exactly the same one at home. Green was really his all time favorite color.

The next 2 M&M fan toys bought during our vacation at Macau in May 2014. The boys saw the fan toys while we were purchasing the gondola tickets at the shop in The Venetian Macao, they were so excited because this time the figurines were wearing the Star Wars costumes. Yu Ming chose the Dart Vader and Zi Ming chose the Stormtrooper.

Transformer Prime Toyline Voyager Starscream

BS's new toy arrived today, he bought it from an online shop. It's Transformers: Prime toyline Voyager class - Starscream. The kids very excited to see their dad's new toy although they didn't like decepticons. After a while both of them told us that they like both autobots and decepticons,  maybe they hoped that BS would let them play his new toy. :)

Transformers Rescue Bots Playskool Heroes toys

The boys with their Rescue Bots Playskool toys... BS and I still think that Playskool transformer toys more suitable to our boys' age compared to other Hasbro's Transformer toys or figures. Easily transformed with just a few steps (1-3 steps) and not easily break.
