So, there we were, visiting her big bungalow home for the first time after coming home from school. In the car, I had forewarned them to behave well and not to touch people's things, not to make the place messy during lunch and to remember to take the plates back to the sink when they are done.
The 2 aunties were charmed with my kids, especially with didi and meimei, saying how well behaved they are and particularly impressed when they saw them taking their plates to the sink without prompting. Heh! I kembang-ed, wei.
They enjoyed the big garden around the house so much, I let them play outside while we gossiped. We were saying how fun it would be for them at this age to grow up in a big landed property. Sigh! I do feel sorry for them to be cooped up in a little apartment, but hey, we do have a swimming pool for them to play in anytime. In conclusion, we agreed that there are pros and cons to apartment and landed property, can't say one is superior than the other.
They were served baked cheese rice and they so loved it. The maid who did that taught me how to do it and koko was asking me to make that for lunch today! Yes, soon, but not now. Later, I share the recipe here.
It was a very nice afternoon spent and the kids made me really proud.

good thing you went coz now you can gloat on your parenting skills, hai mei ah? I'm sure the kids were happy to hear that they so well behaved.
dawn,
gloat, yeah... not many occasions can do that, y'know? heh!
the kids were happy to run around, I was happy that they didn't break anything!
Kind of strange the way you refer to them as the 2 aunties - are they not your friends? If not, how come they invite you and your three children to the bungalow? *curious*
mun,
