Wake up to yummy golden brown pancakes

Recently, I have been tasked to write a short recipe for Nestlé CERELAC® Baby Cereal. The idea of making golden brown pancakes instantly came to my mind. Babies love yummy and fluffy pancakes! And I love them too. But I have never made pancakes from scratch. Pancake mix is readily available at supermarkets – making … [Read more…]

A dreadful mistake

23/08/2016 by Dr Donna Chow Leave a Comment
Be alert when you use your handphone

A few nights ago, I made a dreadful mistake. I was capturing a photo for my carousell ad and after uploaded the photo, I decided to delete it to “save space” on my handphone. Little did I know that when I click the button “delete”, I deleted the entire camera album. It all happened in a matter … [Read more…]

Hand carry expressed breast milk on Singapore Airlines

17/08/2016 by Dr Donna Chow 8 Comments
My boy enjoying his milk

Recently I returned from a work trip to Bangkok. Initially, I was quite reluctant to travel alone because I was still pumping breast milk religiously three times a day. I was afraid of leaving my comfort zone and having to deal with a strange environment. Though it was a short 3 day training workshop cum conference, … [Read more…]

How to clean rainbow stains on steel pots

05/08/2016 by Dr Donna Chow Leave a Comment
Looking like new

It is a misnomer that stainless steel should be called “stainless”. Anyone who has used stainless steel pots and pans would know that after repeated use, you will get rainbow stains on the bottom. These cloudy discoloration can be a result of a combination of high heat from your stove and food residue being stuck … [Read more…]

Do we need to moisturise oily skin?

28/07/2016 by Dr Donna Chow Leave a Comment
A suitable moisturiser for your skin

Many patients with oily skin tell me that they do not use any moisturiser and they are quite happy at that. Then they start to ask me why do they need moisturiser when their skin is already producing oil? “Oh no, I don’t use moisturiser. It gives me pimples whenever I use it”. Then, they … [Read more…]

One year old cake smash photography

Cute baby thoughts

Nowadays, it’s quite common for mummies to organise cake smash party for their one year old. It’s a western tradition which has been popularised by the influence of Internet. I first came across this idea when I was online shopping at etsy (a great platform for craftaholics). An Internet search for cake smash images yield many … [Read more…]

The completed square silk blouse

And took some photos with the Sesame Street characters

It was a good time to refresh, rejuvenate and to recharge ourselves, and to visit the places which we wanted to see; The Underwater World (which will cease operations on 26 Jun 2016), Trick Eye museum and Universal Studios at Resort World … [Read more…]

I will give you a tour of my backyard and the edibles I grow in my garden.

This includes a papaya tree planted in a pot,  watermelon plant with baby fruits, my crop of cabbage, my lime plant, chilli padi plants, cherry tomato plants, popular herbs such as rosemary, sweet basil and mint. 

Not to forget my hardy sweet potato leaves which I harvest weekly to cook sambal chilli with.

Maintaining an edible garden can be both hard work and fun.
My clarinet version of our NDP song by Kit Chan. Finally reunited with my clarinet after being apart for nearly a quarter of a century. 
Pardon me for my rusty skills. Decided to pick it up again during the circuit breaker period. 

Attached with the full lyrics:

Home - Kit Chan
Whenever I am feeling low
I look around me and I know
There's a place that will stay within me
Wherever I may choose to go
I will always recall the city
Know every street and shore
Sail down the river which brings us life
Winding through my Singapore
This is home truly, where I know I must be
Where my dreams wait for me, where the river always flows
This is home surely, as my senses tell me
This is where I won't be alone, for this is where I know it's home
When there are troubles to go through
We'll find a way to start anew
There is comfort in the knowledge
That home's about its people too
So we'll build our dreams together
Just like we've done before
Just like the river which brings us life
There'll always be Singapore
This is home truly, where I know I must be
Where my dreams wait for me, where the river always flows
This is home surely, as my senses tell me
This is where I won't be alone, for this is where I know it's home
This is home truly, where I know I must be
Where my dreams wait for me, where the river always flows
This is home surely, as my senses tell me
This is where I won't be alone, for this is where I know it's home
For this is where I know it's home
For this is where I know I'm home
