These are lazy lunches I made for Damien in different occasions.
They are the same... just buttered toast breads sandwiched with either ham or sausages, cheese and salad, secured with with animals picks bought from Daiso. Damien loves the steamed sweet corns with diced carrots, tossed with butter and seasoned with salt. In some occasion, I added in adamame to add vitamins that can only be found in green vegies. :)
I prepared 3 sets of this bento when I went visiting an ex-colleague. She has 2 kids about the age of my 2 year-old then. I thot kids would love colourful bento. While Damien happily whacked the whole thing, her kids hardly finished it.
It's a kid version of sushi, idea learned from Happylittlebento.com. Bacially remove the crust and press a piece of bread flat, roll in ham, sausage, cheese or fried egg. Then cut it into 3 & pinched each with a pick. I added some carrot shred in some of them, so it does look like a sushi isn't? :)
Same old steamed sweet corns and carrots - Damien's favourite. Also a steamed sausage that was cut into 8 tentacles at one end, it's an octopus!
5 days before his 3rd birthday, Damien walked up to me at the kitchen and said, "mummy! I like mummy!"
Feeling as sweet as honey, I asked, "you like me? Why do you like me?"
"because mummy sayang Damien", as he was saying this, he came close and cuddled my legs.
Mummy like you too. Very much! 
This is my new found favourite restaurant in SS2. It is right opposite Mon Liza wedding gallary, the shop row nearest to the SS2's famous 'durian' place.
I had lunch there several years ago when I took my wedding photos at Mon Liza. It appeared to me as pricey at time... but most probably because we had ordered the beef barbeque. And it didn't leave much impression on me.
In recent discovery through my colleagues, they offers set lunch and set dinner on weekdays. It's a real pleasant surprise. The set lunch only costs RM9.90 - a main dish either noodles, kimchi fried rice, or pork/ chicken/ beef/ octopus cooked with cabbage served with steamed rice, with 8 different side dishes, a cup of tea, a bowl of soup and ginger tea as dessert.
Most of all, their service is friendly and warm. Since the couple owners are Koreans (my safe assumption as they were spotted at the casher counter and ordering stuff around), I was immediately assured with some sense of Korea authenticity.
The first time I had lunch with another 3 colleagues of mine, they served side dishes separately, and allowed us to refill. We refilled some of them 3 times! Ah! It's embarrassing to tell such big eaters we are.
The second time (actually the second day :D), the same meal was ordered but was served in a bento box with individual side dishes. I was thinking probably the waitress recognised me, as such a big eater, hence the bento.
I don't think we could ask for a refill, however, the portion was quite a lot, my colleague could not even finish hers.
Definitely a very satisfying lunch (with that price).
So I'm definitely going back for more. :-)
Found some reviews from others on the restaurant too. With many photos here.
大米快三岁了！
我越来越觉得他像我的情人。
我的情人每晚息了灯，在床上和我谈天，看贴在墙上的星星。
我的情人喜欢睡在我身旁，紧紧地要我抱着，给他唱改了歌词的歌。
我的情人在周日早上，等我吻他，然后撒娇的说“我还要睡觉。”
我的情人在周末早上，趴在我身上，拉我的颈脖，誓必把我吵起床。
我的情人在我放工的时候，连跑带跳的走到门口喊我。
我的情人会不经意的说：”我喜欢妈咪。” 弄得我心花怒放。
我的情人把他最喜欢吃的东西给我吃，别人都没有。
我的情人总爱缠着我，从厨房，客厅到厕所。
我的情人要我陪他玩车车，骑脚车。而他帮我洗菜，剥臭豆。
。。。说到这里，我忽然记得我的同事曾很咋有其事的说，我将来必会是个跟媳妇抢儿子的老妈。。。
心血来潮，看看婚姻的路有多长。。。

大米几个月大时两个小脚腕的皮肤就长出两角钱大的红斑，然后粗粗的，脱皮。
儿科医生说是皮肤敏感，大多是遗传的，放放药膏，但也挺有效的，只是几天不放药就复发。
两岁多，偶尔连膝盖后侧，手肘弯折处也开始长了类是的红斑。大米开始抓痒，流血。
最近看了别一个医生，医生说太不幸，皮肤敏感是遗传， 没有彻底医治的方法，这是eczema，在小孩中是很普遍的一种皮肤症状。他还说大米是典型的City-boy，有敏感的皮肤，不适合去郊外，还要避免吃花生制品。上网查阅，eczema宝宝还需要特别的皮肤和饮食照顾，也许年长了皮肤症状会消失。希望吧！如果不是，大米要比女人照顾皮肤还麻烦了。
这医生介绍我们用SebaMed给大米冲凉，给他每天搽Dermaveen lotion。
SebaMed洗澡液竟然是RM75.90一支(1000ml), 还真不便宜。
开始还要注意大米饮食了。。。
有孩子真不简单。
I found out about this book through an article in Wall Street Journal 2 months ago. The article comes with a provoking title: Why Chinese Mothers Are Superior
And I was thrilled. The staggerring number of comments (3000+) impressed me. I read the article and was convinced that I would buy the book.
Surprisingly, when I presented the book title to a Popular staff, she nodded: "Ah..." and walked straight to the book aisle where the book is placed.
"What about this book?" she was curious, "It seems popular, a lot of customers were looking for it."
I see... no wonder she knew exactly where it is located. Yes I think it is quite famous, after the controversal & sensational excerpt published in WSJ.
Indeed, it is a good read about an American Chinese mother on how her strict and forceful parenting style adopted from her China immigrant parents had not quite succeeded in a modern American society.
Being a Chinese mother myself, I kind of agree with part of her parenting style (but likely not as extreme as her):
1. You don't let the kids make certain decisions.
2. You use a cane (well, she didn't mention about cane, I guess she didn't use it, but I do)
3. You asert your veto power sometimes. Yes it is necessary, you won't know it will save your children's lives!
The westernised parents, or pseduo westernised parents will not agree with me, but who cares. I have all the Chinese parents' votes.
Here's the summary from www.mandmax.com :-):
