This post was supposed to have been published the day after Wesak Day. I honestly thought I’d hit the ‘publish’ button but apparently not because I just found this still sitting draft. Duh!
At any rate, we got to the temple early on Wesak Day. Of course, our idea of early doesn’t even come close to [...]

Do you like scary movies and wish you could spend the weekend watching one? Well, I don’t! But I have a cousin who I guarantee will be raving about this new Horror Movie called Frontier(s) after he watches it.

The days are crazy hot and humid and there’s no way I can be persuaded to be outdoors for anything more than a nanosecond. But for the city folks, what else is there to do on the weekend?

I work out regularly and it’s always exciting to learn about new and better ways to exercise. In fact, I’ve just heard about a new fitness concept called rebounding, dubbed “the most efficient and effective exercise yet devised by man”.

Okay, I gotta say I love the huge tote bag too. Bigger is better - for all the junk necessities we ladies carry [...]

Isn’t it great that we sometimes don’t even have to step outside the door to buy a gift?
Like if you’re one of those die-hard procrastinators who wait till the last minute to buy a Mother’s Day gift two days ago, you didn’t actually have to rush around the mall like a mad man trying to [...]

Ride a bike? Cool! Need a place to hang your crash helmet so you won’t lose it? How about this?

I passed by the Dockers store the other day and suddenly it dawned on me how much I miss my Dockers. I have a few pairs which I can no longer wear because I bought them in the days when I had more meat on me from the hearty company lunches.
Well, I’m much more toned [...]

Are you still out shopping for a Mother’s Day gift or have you got everything planned already?
My girls got me these and I’m thrilled to bits. Remember, the gifts don’t have to be big or expensive. It’s the thought that counts.
I don’t have time to make a long, soppy post about the greatness of mothers. [...]
