    Locally, Steamed Corn on the Cob is one of many people’s favorite street snack that one can buy throughout the whole year. You don’t have to wait for seasonal time of the year to grab a corn cob. Fresh corns are […]

      Did you steam the corns with its leaves? My son loves to eat corn too!
      I normally cook it in the hot water for time saving,fast!
      I found the corn is more expensive nowadays if compared to those old days. It costs RM1.50 or even more per piece. I don’t really understand what is the reason behind.
      Thus, I not buy very often, just wait when there is some offer, like 5 for RM5. The cheapest I have ever gotten was RM0.50 per piece at the wholesale wet market.
      However, it could make me scared on if it contains too much chemical residuals or not. Thus, I did not purchase too many.
      The corns from Cameron Highland are very nice to eat, very sweet and have two colours, white and yellow, it could be DNA modified type.
      After steaming, apply some butter and salt on the top would make the corn taste even better and sweet, I think. However, I not do in this way very often as I am the lazy type mummy, again. Haha!

    peachpurple wrote a new post, 5 Ways How to Stop Procrastination 8 years ago

    Everyone is busy with work.

    It seems that work is never done, always accumulating everyday.

    However, why do some people can finish their work earlier than due date while you can’t?

    Do you procrastinate […]

    • Procrastination is a bad habit because it loses the chances of success in life because chances ever come in human life. The brave avail of chances bravely and the coward wait for the chances until happens mishap in life.

      I think that Procrastination means to postpone doing something, especially as a regular practice. It is also to delay something that one should do and it is not done because one does not want to do it. There are habits that do not do any good to people but harm, procrastination is one among them.

      Everyone procrastinates sometimes, but 20 percent of people chronically avoid difficult tasks and deliberately look for distractions—which, unfortunately, are increasingly available. Procrastination in large part reflects our perennial struggle with self-control as well as our inability to accurately predict how we’ll feel tomorrow, or the next day.

      Procrastinators may say they perform better under pressure, but more often than not that’s their way of justifying putting things off. The bright side? It’s possible to overcome procrastination

      If you’re honest with yourself, you probably know when you’re procrastinating. But to be sure, take our Are You a Procrastinator? Add to My Personal Learning Plan self test.

      Here are some useful indicators that will help you know when you’re procrastinating:

      Filling your day with low priority tasks from your To Do List.
      Reading e-mails several times without starting work on them or deciding what you’re going to do with them.

      Sitting down to start a high-priority task, and almost immediately going off to make a cup of coffee.

      Leaving an item on your To Do list for a long time, even though you know it’s important.

      Regularly saying “Yes” to unimportant tasks that others ask you to do, and filling your time with these instead of getting on with the important tasks already on your list.

      Waiting for the “right mood” or the “right time” to tackle the important task at hand

      I think if ant procrastinator will act upon these steps he will overcome this bad habit.

    I love family genre movies and dramas especially the koreans, the producers and directors gave good results for their works.

    You don’t see false act at all.

    The family movies are so touching that shows humans do err and gain forgiveness after all.

    Venegences are around but not as fierce and wild as the Taiwan movies, too much violence.

    As you baby grows into a toddler, remember that one day, he will grow into an adult too.

    All of us had been through our childhood days, we had many questions submerging in our brain, thirsting for answer for a […]

    • To tell the truth I can say that kids are the most intelligent people in this earth. We normally assume that kids don’t see or understand the things that we do; but the truth is that they tend to watch us the grownups doing our things and copy what they can. But when they see something that they may not agree with that will probably ask a lot of questions. I agree that children don’t need to be lied to or even Hi we stuff from them. They become very curious when they grow up, and start asking questions so the best thing is to always create time to tell to them and explain anything that they may want to know it’s very important.

    • Yes treating your child with respect, telling him the truth of what ever question he asks you is very good. It’s also good to make him feel very important and also make him believe that you are the only one that can tell them the truth of any of their question. When u was a kid, I was really a very inquisitive type and my mother simply said I was going to be intelligent and I thank God I am today. Children who are always inquisitive to know what goes on around them and how it happens gathers a lot of knowledge and this help them to be intelligent as they grow gradually. I really am interested in kids that are inquisitive cos they remind me of my childhood days and my childhood questions. These kinda children who ask questions a lot are very noisy and talks a lot. Due to their acquired knowledge, they tend to talk a lot about what they have learnt from their parents. Actually not all children are question, they keep quiet and just grow like that without knowing anything. Most times these children end up in being dummies in their classes due to their quiet nature.

    • This could be a wonderful way for the girl child to grow up. This opens up a lot of ideas on how to do stuff and get things going. Girls need to be initiated to such behaviour earlier in life to be able to appreciate the little things in life. We all know that women are very good at being natural or using stuff around them and recreate new things. This are some good ways of starting up something

    • Women and this their creativity thing. Personally, I think I prefer a home made gift for a birthday present. This might just be because I like being creative most times.

      So just like Anita Gimase said, this could be a great way to train the girl child and helping them grow.

      I love creativity and I don’t fail to appreciate it whenever I see one.
