As you can see, the current "in" thing for him is a set of spoon, fork and knife which he takes with him to sleep as well! No more Thomas the train. The set of cutlery came along with a mini kitchen/shop from Tesco. Cost me only RM60 compared to some other brands which cost a few hundred RM! Of course, the other brands had more variety...but this Tesco one would do and keeps him somewhat busy. Why kitchen, you might ask......I did noticed that he loves to do "masak-masak" so this would be a better investment. He does not really like Legos though and instead he loves to kicks and throws the structures (which I build!) instead - the destroyer. However he does like setting up tracks and loves puzzles - must take photos of the kitchen and puzzles one day.
Relaxing on the chair....oh yah, just a note of my little guy - he speaks pretty well, he can tell what he wants, etc...but of course, this does not mean we give in to all his wants! Haha.....only thing is that I have yet to teach him Hokien and Mandarin. He can tell us when he is sad. He will put down his head, almost touching his chest and tell us, Ben sad...Ben sad....
He is almost potty-trained (phew!) - except when he is sleeping. He sings pretty well and can remember nursery rhymes (to my surprise!)....
...unfortunately I have not been successful in weaning him off the bottle ....so his tooth decay is pretty bad...sigh.
Ok, to make this entry more interesting, thought that I will blog about my yam cake which I made today. You start off with rice flour - 3 cups.
...and one tablespoon of minced garlic, a bit of dry prawns (according to kuali, it is supposed to be 150gm - quite a lot!) and one yam cubed or sliced......
Put everything in the wok and fry it for about 15 minutes or when it starts to smell nice.....Back to the rice flour, add 6 cups of water into the flour. A pinch of 5-spice powder and salt, stir and then add all the stuff that was stir-fry.......All done - just need to steam for about an hour.
Final ingredient - the green spring onion on top and voila! Yam cake. Easy right?
