Kid’s Favourite Dish

August 30, 2006

Just a record of my kids favourite dish since they are sick of porriadge already. Wanted to keep track, because they are not really keen on rice with dishes and i have to crack my head each day to think of what’s good for them and what’s their preference. (Yee…not easy to be cook of the house, what the adult likes doesn’t mean that it’s suitable for them or up to their preference…)

JS was a very fussy eater, I used to be very stress and tense when comes to her meal time, (always worry if she’s having enough …etc etc) a lot of shouting and yelling at her, but I’ve noticed some very promising improvement lately. Though there’s still certain food she’s still quite picky like vege, generally she’s much better. It’s WH turn now as he’s approaching 2, and most time he refuses to open his mouth wide though he’s mush more experimental with food compare with JS. It takes a very long time to feed him now. But after the first experience, I’m less stress with WH, I know it’s just a phase that he will eventually grows out and as long as he’s snacking on healhty snack in between, it should be alright. Going places and eating out become a much delighted affair without having to worry about the kids meal. (used to be very fussy and insistent that I only want my kids to have home cooked meal without aji and salt)

Here’s what they like

They prefer pasta, noodles than rice…..

I know some of the dishes I can cook more and freeze it for the next time, but I really don’t like the idea of my kids having overnight food, I want them to have freshly cook food each day and this is hard work to come up with different varieties they like daily, twice a day sometimes…. 

What do you cook for your pre-schooler and toddler daily (lunch + dinner)? What’s is simple and fast to make with easy obtain ingredients and still pack with all the nutrients?


No Longer Bob, But…

August 30, 2006

WH is just so cute. After a few days of being “Bob” , he has finally decided he wanted to be something else…

Now he calles himself “KorKor” (big brother) He decided to switch suddenly and he has been going around telling everyone to call him ‘korkor’ and wanted everyone to acknowlegde him as ‘korkor’

How he’s decided that, I’m not too sure…. I just mentioned to him “you must finish your milk then only you can be tall and strong and play ball and cycle with all the abang outside” after a few sip of milk, he proudly call himself ‘korkor’….

JS asked “yee..how come no more bob the builder?”

WH: “korkor, korkor”

and they can go on fighting with each other

JS: “Bob”

WH: “no, korkor”

JS: “Bob”

WH “korkor, korkor”

They can go on and on until WH gets irritated and raise his voice and insist on his own views. They always fight in this way and JS always likes to tease her brother and makes her brother cries.
