Awesome Finds: Munchkin Foodies Store

Eeks! I thought i had posted this last night! Sorry for the delay.

(Before we jump right into this post, i'd like to apologise for the low quality of the pictures. Its 1.06am and i just took pictures of the items. But i hope i managed to tweak it a little so it comes out fine.)

Anyways, i found this online shop, Munchkin Foodies Store a while ago but because Kiara was not at the age yet for snacks/chippies, i had to wait till she was. I did buy some from Cold Storage/NTUC Fairprice earlier on. In fact i started Kiara on some biscuits first. She loves this Take One Bite brand especially the crarrot flavoured version. Quite yummy!

I started her on that when she was about 5 months. She now gobbles it down like a Pro! :p After that, i introduced her to Gerber Baby Puffs. She does not know how to hold them with her thumb and forefinger yet, so i help pop it into her mouth. She does however hold her bigger biscuits, that is, if she's not beling lazy. (She like to just leave the whole piece in her mouth and slowly munch the whole thing up without touching it. Lazy little girl)

So back to the wonderful store i found. The owner of it, Nurul, has been wonderful. Always ready to give you any info you may require on the products. I met her for the first time on Friday when i picked up some of the goodies i bought from her. She sells the puffs above and if i'm not wrong they're $6 from her. Here's my loot from her! It isn't much, but i can't wait to try more things from her! :D

When i spoke to her, she was telling me how we don't have the Gerber Yogurt Melts here so i bought one to try. I also picked up HappyMelts yogurt snacks which are Organic, as she was saying they're quite the popular choice. I've tried both and  must say, i know why the organic is the popular choice!

In terms of taste, the organice melts are amazingly delicious! The Gerber version seems to have quite an artificial taste to them. Well, in my opinion anyway. Kiara likes them both the same. Though once she's done with the Gerber melts, i doubt i will be purchasing them again. In terms of size though, Gerber melts are much bigger! Organic ones seems to be more flat with a pallet like surface. (Gerber Melts are $6.50 while HappyMelts Organic yogurt snacks are $6.80 - She pointed out that you can find the organic ones here in leading supermarkets though their retail price is $9.80)

I also picked up Gerber lil' crunchies Mild Cheddar but i've yet to open it. I'm letting K finish up her current snacks before opening that. Also, that will be my first time introducing cheese to her. So i'm quite nervous but excited at the same time. (Truth be told, i can't wait to try it too!) This is selling at $6.50 too.

So do hop on down to her online store and check out the other products she carries. She brings in something new every now and then and she's just ventured into bath items. :)

Finding things at a steal, even for a couple of cents, makes me happy! Every pennny saved, goes a long way! :D

A baby brewing, again?!

I can't thank the people who have followed my blog from the get-go for all your words of encouragement and love. Thank you for pushing me to write again. It warms my heart to hear when my readers tell me they enjoyed reading my journey and somehow felt like they were right there with me too. Big love to you all.  Here i am sitting down and staring at the screen. I feel rusty. I haven't done this in a while. My last post was, well ages ago! But - hello! Seeing as i set up this baby blog of mine some 6 years ago, i felt it is only right that i continue writing in it seeing as, as most of you would know by now, i am baking baby number 2 in the oven! I'm in the last leg of my pregnancy now. I'd call it the 'uncomfortable' stage.  Where you feel like a whale,  your legs are sore,  your body's aching and the baby is kicking like there's no tomorrow.  But,  kicking is good.  Kick away baby,  so momma knows you're growing well.  So let's ...

New Paper New Face 2011

Hey! Today, i bring you news about this year's New Face competition! :) For those of you who don't live here in Singapore, the New Face competition is one of the biggest modeling competitions held here. It had unearthed beauties from all walks of life and many of whom has made quite a name for themselves in the industry. It has helped so many girls shine and achieve their goals, and i am glad to say, i made it to Top 20 last year and have graduated to the very prestigious alumni of New Face girls. :) Every year since i joined the modeling industry, i entered a competition, to better myself and gain confidence. I remember i started off with Singtel Grid Girls back in 2008 and not having much confidence at all. But the New Face competition was something i had wanted to join since the age of 15. It took me another 2 years, to build up that confidence to go to the walk-in auditions and i am glad i did. (Spot me if you can!) It has been such an amazing experience for me, i learned s...

Baby Recipe: Chicken & Carrot Porridge [Plus Storage Solutions]

This is probably one of Kiara's favourite dishes and i believe many asian kids too! It's easy peasy to make and tastes delish! What you'll need: Minced Chicken Diced Carrots Rice (Brown Rice if you want the healthier choice) Bovril (optional) Garlic (optional) Chicken Stock (optional)   For all the items that i stated as optional, it's really up to you which you would prefer. Some would rather skip bovril & garlic and just use chicken stock, where as some would do the opposite. So that part is really up to you how you would like your baby's food to be. I personally have used all 3 methods and Kiara likes them all the same. Step 1 : Add rice and carrots into a pot of boiling water (or boiling chicken stock). You can add  finely chopped garlic if you would prefer to add more flavour to the dish. I let this simmer in for about 15/20 minutes till the carrots are relatively softer. Plus rice takes a while to cook too! Once done, add in your minced chicken which cooks...
