Lovely Dining Experience@ Radhey Heavenly Delights

Hi folks! I stumbled upon this fine dining Indian Vegetarian restaurant at Groupon and finally found time to try out their 5 course meal yesterday wih hubby & kids.

As it's hard to find Indian vegetarian cuisine without onion and garlic, this restaurant is a rare find; no onion, no garlic, no animal rennet for their yummy cottage cheese, plenty of choices from Indian cuisine, eggless cake, pasta to pizza..plus they have takeaway, deliveries, catering services too! Awesome place for those who love Indian food.

Service are excellent and DH & KY gives a thumbs-up to their food. I personally loved their curry which doesn't gives me the spicy & heaty after taste..must be the way they cook it, ingredient as well as the combination of yogurt and special mayonnaise yummy..

My next trip will be to try out their pasta, pizza and eggless cake :)

Hot Air Balloon Fiesta is back

Hi folks!

I been hearing a lot about the four-day event that began yesterday at the Monumen Alaf Baru in Precinct 2, Putrajaya.

The Hot Air Balloon Fiesta will also see the return of the "night glow" event on Saturday night, where balloons will be lit up in a synchronised manner to the sounds of music, culminating in a fireworks display.

It's free-admission with activities such as a para motor exhibition, bicycle exhibition, helicopter joy rides, tethered hot air balloon rides, remote controlled aeroplane model demonstration, meet-and-greet session with the participating balloonists and the Mountain Dew Extreme Zone for the adventurous ones.

No pre-booking service required. The hot air balloon ride (priced at RM10) for the public and is dependent on the weather.

For more details, visit www.myballoonfiesta.com.

The fiesta ends on Sunday.

Are you guys going? Or have you been there with your kids during this school holiday?

I would love to go, yet at the same really scared of the big crowd :P Thinking too much huh..how early we should go to be on the safe side? Any idea?

Cheers!

My Simple Yet Filling Breakfast

Hi folks!

This is my typical no-fuss breakfast I ate daily at workplace. Oatmeal+oat milk energy+fruits(bananas, oranges,etc). At times, maybe an additional bread or toppings like cranberries & nuts. So yummy that I can eat it everyday. It kinda nurture that palette that doesn't crave for oily fried noodles for breakfast anymore ;) which is good for my waistline I feel :)

Note: Pic posted specially for you Azza ;) Healthy eating anytime.. Cheers!

Conversation with kids about the Farewell

Hi folks!

Note that I prefer to use farewell rather than "death"...

Before we reach the funeral procession, I talked about it in the car with my children so that they are emotionally prepared as it is their first time attending a funeral.

I informed them that we are going to say goodbye to great-grandma and that great grandma has gone home to meet great grandpa.

Some of the Q n A KY and I had:
KY: Where is taipo going?
Molly: She is going back to "Heaven".
KY: Why "taipo": great grandma is leaving?
Molly: Taipo has finished her task here thus decided to go back to join "tai gong" great grandpa.
KY: Oh...then when can we go back too?
Molly: When we completed the task we need to do here then we could go back.
KY: Oh..do we get to go back to Heaven too next time?
Molly: If we keep our hearts "good", no bad thoughts, no getting angry all the time. Always loving, and close to God. Care for others..

Upon reaching funeral place, my mil said to us that KY 7-year old cousin cried loudly just now and demanded to know who killed his taipo...

KY: Mommy, why gorgor;"cousin brother" cry when taipo is leaving?
Molly: Because he misses taipo and can't bear to be apart with her.
KY then walked to him, ask him why he cried, then give him a hug and told him don't cry, taipo is back to "Heaven"..
Cousin: I feel sad that's why I cried, but mommy said I can give taipo something. I want to give taipo flowers.
And this usually hyperactive & rowdy boy became calmer.

It marvels me how kids react and questions about "farewell". It also taught me a good lessons to explained to them while also help them to grieve in a more positive way like what my sil did. The next day, my sil bought a bouquet of flower and place it in front of the great grandma altar/Picture.

I have seen how my mil cried out to her mom, feeling sad that she no longer has a mom to call to. At that very moment, I felt(as her half daughter), what I can do is to show more care for her..as if the taipo is showing me the way, the best way to grieve for her is to shower double care to this "mom" of mine while there are still chance to do so....

Thanks grandma for the reminder...I will remember to call & visit mil more often from now on...y'day(the day after the burial) when I called her to inform about the water disruption as I believe most of us has been too busy to read the news for the past few days...), I can feel from her voice, she's been crying alone...time to go back this weekend....to bring some voices and laughter home by her own grandchildren...kids simply have a magical healing power to transform grief to joy..the gift from God...

Cheers!
