Cuisine & Culture the Chinese Family Way
Every time I go back to Singapore, we will always have a durian feast with my family. My sisters would source the best and one of the most expensive ranges of durian for me. Through the years, even though they have tried to buy from many durian sellers, they will always look out for more – in case, their usual sellers run out of the type of durian they want, they have someone else to fall back on.
This Valentine’s Day, why not surprise your loved ones with a personalised sweet-tooth hamper from Swizzels Matlow! As many will know, this 90+ year old British family-owned sweet factory has long been known for their messages of love and romance. And they are the only place you can get Love Heart tablets with Just Married on them!
It’s the most wonderful time of the year and this year, we were on HARIBO’s nice list to receive this delicious HARIBO hamper. There was also an extra special gift to give us this opportunity to create magical Christmas memories by making our very own gingerbread house.
When you visit Blackpool, one of the most unmissable and must-visit places with children has got to be Coral Island! Coral Island is Blackpool’s largest indoor free-admission family-friendly attraction located at a prime area. It is directly opposite the beautiful Blackpool seafront, between Madame Tussauds and Sealife Blackpool by the Central Pier and right outside a massive car park! It is hard to miss, especially with its signature skull and crossbones! We love the place, especially my children. They could both camp there for the whole day if they were allowed!
Last Friday, I went down to London to attend Maynards Discovery Patch event in London Zoo to learn about developing children’s imagination and met child psychologist Dr Amanda Gummer and the team of Imagination Ambassadors.
This Christmas is a very sweet one especially when a beautiful jar of sweeties landed on my desk this morning! It is from The Gob Stopper, the online retro sweet shop. They are not only online but they have two shops in Hale and Lymm. They stock all kinds of sweet from vegetarian to halal sweets, chocolates, wedding favours, hampers, Bar/Bat Mitzvahs and more.
