My good friend Farrah is leaving for Singapore so we celebrated her birthday early! We had dinner at Crystal Jade two weeks ago. I haven't tried this restaurant but I have heard so many things about how good the food here is! I've been wanting to try Xiao Long Bao in Singapore but we just didn't have the time.

I'm glad we had dinner here with my friends.

We had these yummy orders...

I saw this trailer over the weekend and I like it very much. It looks like we are going to watch this with the girls!

Rob Riggle will play financial king O'Hare, and beloved actress Betty White will portray Ted's wise Grammy Norma. Dr. Seuss'

The Lorax is the third feature created by Universal Pictures and Illumination Entertainment (Despicable Me, Hop).

I can't wait!

Since we just came from an anniversary trip, we didn't plan on something for VDay. We don't usually celebrate it anyway. But since I still have a voucher from Korea Garden that is going to expire soon, we thought of using it for our valentine family dinner date!

We had a reservation at 730PM and surprisingly traffic wasn't too bad so we got there on time!



The signature Korean Dinner comes with rice, soup, Kalbi Chim, Bulgogi, Chap Chae, Nakchi Bokum (spicy octopus), Mandu (dumplings) and pineapple for dessert.


It was a great Korean dinner, even better than we had at Bulgogi Brothers in Greenbelt. The girls who already had dinner at home ate again. All along I thought they wanted to eat dessert, but I was wrong!


It was a quick and simple Valentine dinner for all of us. We went home as soon as we were done and looked forward to more Valentine's day in the next few years!

Now, this one is tempting!

Gosh, this video made me cry! It must be the hormones, I don't know but it's simply touching. This is for all the Moms out there...

"Learn the art of letting go by practicing it in the present. Instead of regretting what's over and done with, savor every minute of the life you have right now."

"If motherhood teaches us anything, is that we can't change our children. We can only change ourselves."

"It has taken awhile, but I certainly do know it now - the most wonderful gift I had, the gift I finally learned to cherish above all else, was the gift of all those perfectly ordinary days."

Ever since I was able to try Patchi Chocolates, I've been craving for it for months now. These were sooo good. I want one please in different flavors!

It wasn't exactly heirloom because she just recently purchased this jewelry a couple of months ago.

And I'm loving it so much! I haven't checked if this is my birth stone though but I will if I find time.

I'm interested in looking at birthstones these past few days. I found out that there is a thing called a family birthstone jewelry. I don't know how it works. Since most of my family were not born on the same month. I remember my Mom said that birth stones depend of course on your birth date. So I will have to look into it more at RedEnvelope.com since they have a couple of birthstone jewelries that I like. These birthstones can be in a ring, necklace or bracelet. And I love it all!

Our movie date with the kids was somehow memorable because it was our mini celebration for Baby A getting well and also a treat for Ate A who was well behaved while we were at the hospital.

Alvin & the Chipmunks was Baby A's 3rd movie, while it was Ate A's 4th movie. Both of them liked it. And mind you, Baby A didn't fall asleep!

I'm glad we went out one weekend to watch this movie. I heard there's a new Tangled movie coming soon. Oh, we will definitely watch that movie! I can't wait!
