Recents updates

So ok, my life lately is not just about bento ok , guys! hhehe. Well I tried to made a few but no photos. As I don't need to make a full bento for my girls , so the bento box looks so empty and unattractive! So far I just made eggs and bread for them. And Maya was so very happy this morning when she saw Winnie the Pooh bread, which I made with Cheddar cheese spread filling. Her favorite . She screamed in delight : POOOOOOOOOOOH POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH....BREAD POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH......I also thrown in some grapes and cut papaya. And I am still waiting for more bento tools to come.

And if you want to find the oshibori/towel for bento and the case, I found it at The Owe's ( 1st floor)at Karamunsing komplex. I got 2 Hello Kitties and 2 Cinnamoroll at only about RM 3.5- RM 5. The towel is a bit rough but the case is cute and I case put any cloth wipes that I got :-D

OK OK , as I said my life is not just about bento now ( I mean I am trying NOT to visit any ebay store and that is NOT EASY). Last week Indy had this hand , foot and mouth disease. She got ulcers and blister under the tounge , throat, and inner cheeks. No fever though. But my instinct told me that is not a normal mouth ulcer. Took her to see her paediatrician, and he confirmed that is HFM. Sigh....The rashes on her hand and feet are not that many. Mostly looked like small mosquitoes bites . And the doctor asked do I have other young kid at home? If yes, I need to completely seperate them for at least 6 days.
I said that is impossible for me to do as we don't have any relatives here. No grandparents, or aunt/uncle. So I said I will try to separate them but that will be hard as they still will be playing together. So I just must be prepare that Maya will have it soon.
Indy just got 2 medicines for the ulcers, and paracetamol and she doesn't need as she doesn't have any fever . No antibiotic was given as this is caused by virus.

Today is the 6th day after Indy showed the signs of HFM. From yesterday she was ok already. She still has a good appetite despite of painful ulcers , she ate porridge for 2 days and after that she just ate anything again ( no chips , no fried things of course) .Basically she is fine now but I still need to keep her home one more day just to be safe and not to spread more virus to others.
But swimming is big a no no until next week at least.

And Maya? touch wood...... until today she looks OK. I checked her tounge many times and no signs of ulcer yet. I told Maya if she will catch HFM also please have it the same time as Indy so I can take care 2 of them at the same time . Bad me....
But until now she is still ok. Hopefully she will.....I will update here if she get it sooner or later.
My hope is just she is still on Breastmilk and even if she has it, hopefully it will be mild one. Maya 's immune system so far has been good, she doesn't easily get sick or catch cold. So I hope she can resist also this time.

Another update that I WILL BE MAIDLESS VERY VERY SOON.
yeah my maid of 2 years officially will be leaving next Monday. sob sob
She will return to her country to try other job, she wants to try to work in a factory overseas or something else.
Maya will miss her badly, and I haven't get anyone to replace her yet!

HELP!HELP!

And I went to see one primary school in KK yesterday. We need to find a school for Indy next year. So far I went to 2 schools . We were planning to put her into Chinese school but I think we are just too coward to face that the Chinese school will have too many homeworks and it will be hard on Indy ( she is not the sitting and learning type, her principal also agree on this). We sound bad maybe for some parents that we don't want our children to have too many homeworks, we do want them to have homeworks, but maybe not too much? We want them to learn other things too not just sit and do homework every single day , We prefer to have them enjoy the process of learning as well . The academic achievement is important but we want something that is more than that. We hope we can find the right school.The school that can give academic learning as well as to build a good character . Do we ask to much?

I wish she can join the Chinese school though.They got the good reputation here, but again , from others advices since there are possibility for us to move to other country and the chance for Indy to go to Mandarin speaking school is not that much, they all said better to go to English speaking school and take Mandarin tuition. Imagine if we need to go back to Italy and Indy is only use to go to Mandarin speaking school. We don't want her to loose her Mandarin so I think the best option is to attend to English Speaking school and take Mandarin tuition.


Oh well before I go , here is Indy's lunch since she is at home this week.

So plain ! LOL, Actually I added cucumber pickles but I didn't take the photo with that. Here are bread with slice cheese, mini bread with mayonnaise, left over Mac & Cheese pasta with chicken, and grapes. Oh and she had it with chocolate milk.

Oh and I also made sandwiches with peanut butter and I use the Pooh icing sugar sieve's to draw the face of Pooh, but I use chocolate sauce instead of icing sugar. ( photo not taken...again busy....)
The second drawing is not that pretty, and Indy said : Oh I don't mind Ma, the most important is the taste , right? kekkeke...good girl...
