Downsides of vacation.

Piles of laundry, close to 1 week of 5 pax, it's headache just by looking at it. And after the laundry's done, there's ironing to do.. waaahhhh.... jiu ming ah...

And apart from that, the whole home needs cleaning and scrubbing from top till toe. Had we been away THAT long?

Some more, the fridge is empty. Need to stock up la, pack pack la.. whew.. I'm refraining from vacations for awhile.

Anyone can lend me a maid to use?

Apart from all the chores, there are hungry stomachs to fill and the need to rehydrate and "cooldown" of body temperature, as during vacation, water consumption was definitely less than normal days and mealtimes were lacking of vegetables and fruits too.

So, busy busy busy....

Today's dinner.. with grilled honey chicken wings and double boiled old cucumber soup with black chicken. The kids sure made me happy by finishing up their dinner in no time.





I shouldn't be complaining, right?

yeah.. that is the most tiring bit after a holiday away. no wonder i see people put up large pieces of tarpaulin over their furniture and stuff when they travel.. so that dusting work is minimized..:D

Yes, I do think that's a very good idea. That's why before we leave for vacation, I would make sure the house is tidy, laundry is done, so that when I come back, there won't be more work to do.
