One of my Favourite Hakka dish

Hi folks,

Is there any dish you won't get tired eating it over and over again?

For me it is Loi Cha, a typical Hakka dish made with young tea leaves, with crushed/mashed mint leaves, basil leaves and some other ingredients as paste to make the gravy/ greeny soup that goes with a bowl of rice coupled with freshly lightly boiled/stir-fry vegetables(at least 3 types of vegetables) with some peanuts, some add sweetcorn and even tofu.

Very yummy and nutritious dish. I used to eat it a lot while I was having very bad morning sickness during my first pregnancy. And it is one of the few dishes I don't threw up then...talking about being pregnant and the vomiting spells I had(You can check out more entries about me having Hyper Emesis Graviduram here, and here and here)

What is your favourite dish of all time?

Hg makes smarter kids

Hi folks, recent article at Cafemom, Study Links Morning Sickness to Smarter Babies makes me pondering..since I have TERRIBLE morning sickness(lasted for the whole first trimester!...see my post here and here), this articles comes to be of a relief if not hmm...encouragement I think...and guess this article would be most useful for those mommies or mommies-to-be who are facing it right now!

And does the study/research reflected rightly for my kids.. :P I would say yes...well depends how you define "smarter" I supposed....when "er" is added means there should be comparison of sorts? Hmm...and since breastfeeding is supposed to produce smarter babies as well....I am not 100% sure of this study..BUT nonetheless...to all pregnant mommies out there...hopefully this articles serves as a good justification or support for you to go through your much dreaded morning sickness spell...(I understand how it felt...I went thru it...and mine is a more severe type of morning sickness called Hyperemesis Gravidarum which literally means severe as in "Hyper", vomit as in "emesis"...erm..don't ask me what is Gravidarum..haha..not sure what it means yet..or perhaps the whole phrase emesis gravidarum means "vomitting" haha...enlighten me more medical-term-savvy folks or Doctors out there :P)

Cheers for the day!
