Holidays Gobble Gobble At the store I found the Christmas Deli Flyer, and it was advertising turkeys.
Nature The Nut Exploded We applied some force to then split the Cocoa Nut open and take a look inside.
Nature Lost in Translation - It is a Nut We keep seeing these giant nuts on the ground and can't figure out where exactly they're coming from.
Holidays October 31 Hallloween isn't much celebrated in Singapore. We did our trick or treating the weekend before Halloween.
Universal Studios Our Little Treasure Hunters We tried some new things at Universal Studios this morning.
Sentosa A Little Beach Time We made it down the beach with the kids. The sky did look a little iffy, but we risked it anyhow.
Nature The Animals in Labrador Park I told the girls if they quieted down we might see some animals. We only made it a few more feet before we saw a Malayan Water Monitor coming up from the shore.
Moving to Singapore My Pet Peeve I'm so frustrated that perfect strangers touch the Littles when we are out in public.
Homeschooling Finding the Home Schoolers We met up with a large group of home schoolers who meet up weekly in various parks around Singapore.
Nature Swinging by Hort Park We started with the turtles. There are many more turtles there than we originally thought a few weeks ago.
Holidays A Simpler Deepvali Dinner I'm still trying to cook. It's still problematic. But, I was feeling inspired by Deepvali. So out came the InstaPot. I have a new cookbook, The Complete Indian InstaPot Cookbook by Chandra Ram.
Happy Deepvali - The Festival of Lights I took girls to "Little India" to learn more about Deepvali. This "Festival of Lights" is the Hindu holiday meant to represent light conquering darkness with various legends symbolizing the struggle.
Homeschooling Morning in the Park While MsE was at her Nature Class this week, the girls and I decided to try hanging around the park.
Nature The Girls Took Over Jurong Bird Park MsC got picked as one of the volunteers. The cockatoo flew from the zookeeper on stage up into the crowd and landed on her outstretched arm.
Homeschooling Nature Class MsE has started attending a nature class once a week. It's a half day in the local nature reserve with a pack of 4 and 5 year olds.
Brunch and a stop at Chinatown Museum The strong fans and large patio umbrellas at Privet kept us cool as we sipped our morning coffees.
