Penang Road Famous Teochew Chendul Review (Penang Road, Penang)

FYI, the maximum temperature in Penang for the month of February 2016 is 35°C and lowest is 25°C. My question is WHERE is the tabloid weather forecast mentioning Malaysia will be as cold as 16°C?!

When it is such a hot weather, we all sure crave for something cold. There is a type of dessert which is famous in Penang, that is Chendul!

Mama Vege Food Review (Bukit Tengah, Bukit Mertajam)

We visited Mama Vege during CNY... This shop is located on the 1st floor accessible by stairs only, so it is not handicap/baby stroller friendly to dine here.

The shop is located above Like Foods.

Restock contact lens with Mr Lens

Mr Lens is an online business selling various types of contact lenses and a few range of sun glasses.

I am a short sighted mom with an itchy hand toddler. If possible, I wouldn't prefer to wear spectacles outside so I will opt to wear contact lens. (Honestly I also want to look pretty ma... )

I used to purchase contact lens via optical shop like Focus Point... until I discovered Mr Lens! Honestly their price is fairly cheaper outside even after including a small shipping fees! Their service is also fast with quick delivery! I feel satisfied purchasing with them and might not consider to purchase from local optical shop, unless they have cheaper promo for the brand I am wearing...

By the way, my regular monthly disposal contact lens which I am wearing is Air Optix Aqua.

My latest order from Mr Lens
They even gave a free lollipop! 

Their website is also easy to navigate around like most online businesses website.

IN2IT Gel Tint for Lip & Cheek Review

GONG XI FA CHAI 
to everyone celebrating Chinese New Year! 

It is a very busy Chinese New Year for me since I need to look closely to a very active toddler, that's why I haven't been updating any post lately.

I started to know about lip tint from a beauty blogger friend (Yue Rain) and since I am not a fan for lipstick (as I scared I will smear on my toddler, either on her face or clothes) I am willing to give it a try.

So I went and bought my FIRST lip tint without surveying the price... lol... since I was not wearing it often, I wouldn't want to spend a fortune to get an expensive one. IN2IT was an affordable brand and widely available in local drugstores like Watson's, Guardians and AEON Wellness. I got mine in AEON Wellness at around RM11 (can't remember the actual price and I didn't keep the receipt).

IN2IT Gel Tint for Lip & Cheek 8 hour wear

Picture taken from Google
IN2IT lip tint available in 4 colors.

I got a GT 03 Raspberry It is written 8 hour wear. I was happy to see it as I think I will not need to put it on again while I need to handle a toddler.

Before apply

After apply


This is my conclusion after using it:

Pros:
~ It dries of and the color stay on the lips so my toddler can't smear it if she touches my lips.
~ Cheaper compared to other brands
~ Easy available (Watson's, Guardian, Aeon Wellness and other hypermarkets)
~ Small and sleek design for easy carrying or tuck it in the pocket
~ Strong color appeared with only 1 layer applied

Cons:
~ It didn't stay on if I am eating. Need to reapply if going out for a meal. So it doesn't stay on 8 hours as written. T_T  Unless you don't eat and drink then It should stay on for 8 hours.
~ It feels dry on lips once dries off and I don't feel comfortable. Need to apply a layer of lip balm to keep lips moisture.
~ Once dried lips will feel a little sticky. But it wouldn't stain or smear once dried.
~ When wet it is easily stain on fingers so if need to wipe have to use tissue.

Conclusion:
I love the tint color and will use it when I am going out, but my husband disagrees and thinks that the color I choose looks like monkey's butt... LOL! It is up to individual I think.


I don't get paid by this review and all are my humble and honest review.

Chocolate Bubble Rice Recipe

My MIL wanted to get some baking supplies and we visited a bakery supply shop nearby (Eazy Bake Baking Supplies) and I saw they also selling bubble rice! Due it is melt in the mouth type and suited Jelly, I bought a small 250g of bubble rice. Next, I search for recipes which caught me drooling. Chocolate krispies! Without hesitating, I went back to get the required ingredients, which is Chocolate! I also bought a packet of dried fruits to add in...
