Home trivia

Yet another KPI to achieve before raya - to replace all the burnt-out light bulbs and downlights in the house! The last time I counted, there are a total of 6 downlights and 11 light bulbs which needs to be replaced to make my humble home terang-benderang for raya.


I'd have to call someone (pro) to change the downlights for me. That's what I did last year. Still can't figure out how to do it myself. Panggil je orang, senang. My late hubby used to do it effortlessly -- standing at 6"2, he doesn't even need a ladder. Hmmm...

By the way, the downlights burn out pretty easily la... I am sure within a week of replacing new ones, at least sebijik will burn out. Don't know why... anyone facing the same problems out there? It is so not cost-efficient. But what to do??

On another note, with no man in the house, I have learned some tricks with the tools I inherited. I am now very handy with the drills. So, if you ever need to hang that picture frame, just gimme a call!! :-)

Pudding tu jadik la!! Yippee... but my girls and I don't quite fancy the sourish taste from the air buah tin tu!! nasib baik ada my cousin yang buka puasa kat rumah who absolutely adored it, so yang lebih tu dia bawak balik la... but texture dia memang soft sangat bak kata your Mr Sor 'mcm kat hotel' hahaha!!! next time nak buat use air gula lak...
