In my recent holiday to Malaysia, I decided to travel, in addition to visiting my family. My trip to China starts very early in the morning. My sister and I arrive at the airport 4.30 am. We fly from Kualal Lumpur and reach Guilin, the capital city of Hunan province in South central part of …
There is a nice restaurant near me. I have been there several times before, and it never fails to please me. My recent trip there was great. Poachers Brasserie in Thurlaston is run by a couple from Poland. The food is modern, using different, unusual and seasonal ingredients. The presentation is always pleasing to the …
I haven’t been posting regularly. This is because I am so busy with Nyonya Recipe Shop. I have been having to do all things by myself as I am the only one working on it and I have to attend a lot of digital training. Alas, I am not able to implement what I have …

My recent experience has taught me again. the importance of being organised. I thought that I have been a fantastic organiser, so this should be a breeze. Alas, this is not the case. I find that I am now very slow in whatever I am doing, and hence take a long time to complete my …

An amazing experience. I am so happy and grateful of the support for my personal budget to help me in my caring role. I booked a reflexology session with Therapy Station. I have been to the Therapy Station before for message and also Emmett Therapy. I have been having Emmett Therapy for a few …
I was in the September Hinckley Sunday Munch. I missed the Hinckley Feast 2018 as I was too late in booking. This is because I only decided to have a stall to test my products early this year. I finally took the plunge to try it out near where I live, and June was my …
I have been to several food fairs this summer. Last week it was the Hinckley Feast. My girls and I went on the Saturday when it was a gorgeous day. On Sunday, it was a bit cloudy and I was not sure whether it rained or not. There were quite a lot to see, and …

On the last day of our recent break, we decide to visit Strutts North Mill in Derbyshire. We set off early, we leave the B & B at around 9am. Upon reaching the place, it is not open until 11am. Dang! I should have been more careful about the opening times. So we decide to …

Well, this is a good question. The reason I ask myself this question again is that I just had the most amazing dinner! I normally do not praise myself, but this is the first time I am blowing my own trumpet. I was in Hinckley Sunday Munch recently and next to me is Nic, …
Last week we went to the Melton Mowbray Cheese Fair, or more correctly, the 8th Artisan Cheese Fair. It is held in the Melton Mowbray Livestock Market, Melton Mowbray. My daughter loves cheese but I am not the ‘cheesy’ type (pun intended). I eat cheese when it is on the pizza or in some …
I was in this event on 8th April. I pass by the advertisement every time I go to the gym. There are a few notices that highlight events happening in spring onwards. I was further reminded on Facebook as some of my friends indicated their interest in this event. So off I went, after sending …
