🎑Happy Moon Festival 🎑
Things have changed drastically in the world since the pandemic has happened.
During this time of the year, we used to gather our friends and loved ones and do BBQ while admiring the moon.
Can’t wait for things to get back to normal again. One step at a time.

🧡中秋節快樂🧡
今年的我沒有烤肉，在工作中度過，微微的桑心🥲

Abbot Kinney 是西LA靠海區的人氣逛街場所，也正在醞釀著過節的氣氛，度過中秋後，令人期待的萬聖節就在轉角🎃

難不成，該開始鼓吹一股萬聖節烤肉的熱潮到西方國家嗎？

這樣我就不會這麼想家了🪂

Yesterday random realisation with Josh: The last time we ordered claypot rice when eating out.. Was about 7+ years ago.. 🥲 Funny thing is, claypot rice was one of our favourites when we were pator-ing and married without kids. And let's be honest, claypot rice dabao (which i did order from a few shops a few times) is just not the same as mixing the rice and the chaodah rice with the soya sauce and oil ON THE SPOT when the pot is hot 😄 Yknow what i mean.

Anyway we figured out why claypot rice is just never the choice when eating out with kids 😅 1) i assume it's not something our young kids can appreciate. 2) The nicer ones must queue very long. 3) The nicer ones that must queue is always at some far-out places with nothing much to bring the kids to go look see 😂 So yup. 就这样, 我七年多没有在外头吃沙煲饭了 🥲😂

Parenthood can so drastically change you in big and small ways, good and bad ways. Ways that are obvious and ways that are not.

Last time i like to take pictures of myself a lot. And with Josh. And when i travel for work, i'd buy truckloads of cup noodles, makeup, clothes and tidbits etc. After having kids when i travel, my luggage is full of kids stuff. Toys, kids clothes, snacks for them..

I try to understand what's this feeling. It's definitely not regret nor sadness that i feel. It's just a reminder of a piece of me, of who i used to be but i'm happy where i am, who i am now ❤️ A mother of three. And i do still like to take pictures a lot. Cox i'm so scared that every moment that i'm so thankful for, will pass me without me giving it an intentional "Thank You."

Even now, i don't know when's the next time i will eat claypot rice outside but.. I am thankful the kids are healthy, we had a fun kiddie pool day and.. I only put on 3kg from eating so much mooncakes LOL.

Don't forget to remember what makes you happy ❤️

天啊，兩歲是個讓家長煩惱的年紀…… Kali 開始有自己的想法並開始懂的表達自己。她愛玩，愛笑，更愛開玩笑，有時會用開玩笑的方式將她的碗和盤子打翻。她也非常依賴某些物品，比如說特定的沐浴玩具、絨毛布偶、衣服，甚至是兒童餐具。

好險Kali使用我們為她準備的第一套 Miniware 時，她立刻就喜歡上了這套餐具！我們也超愛，因為它大大的降低了孩子們用餐時混亂的場景。Miniware有別市售一體成型的兒童餐具，它的盤子和碗的吸盤都可拆卸互換，吸盤可以很容易穩定的吸在桌面上，當大寶開始調皮，嘗試將她的盤子和碗從桌子上推下來時，這個功能超有用（好動寶寶真的必備！）。

Miniware也幫助孩子們越來越獨立的學習吃飯，不僅外觀非常簡約美型，和我們使用的餐具沒什麼差異，很有大人味。整套餐具的設計也非常直觀，大寶好握拿、好挖食，當Kali第一次拿起叉子和勺子時，她就知道可以將它們直立起來，而且搭配超美的花瓣盤，食物看起來更美味，還能分隔湯湯水水，這也是她喜歡在任何地方使用這套餐具的原因之一。即使是在遊戲室吃她的小零嘴時，我們只需要把她的零食放在花瓣分隔盤上，然後大寶吃完後只要快速沖洗一下，就可以放回盤子上，當晚餐時間到時再拿出來使用。

Miniware非常容易收納和攜帶。我們住在充滿植物的自然公園旁邊，疫情前經常全家人去野餐。Miniware非常輕巧、耐用，很適合外出使用！說到自然，大家知道Miniware是聚乳酸材質，100%植物澱粉製成嗎？可回收還對地球十分友善！這樣優秀的產品，值得我們支持呢！

Ah, the terrible twos... Kali is starting to have her own opinion and really express herself. She loves to play, she loves to laugh, and she loves to crack jokes. That includes flipping her bowls and plates on the floor. She also gets pretty attached to certain things like specific bath toys, stuffed animals, clothes, and yes, even dinnerware.

The first time we introduced her to her first Miniware set, she immediately loved it! We do, too, as it has significantly reduced kiddie clutter at dinner time. Miniware's plates and bowls come with removable, interchangeable suction mats that simply stick to the surface, which comes in handy when Kali tries to push her plates and bowls off the table. It’s definitely a must have!

The Miniware set does a great job at helping kids feel more independent; the set doesn't look like other kids' dinnerware that are drastically different from what their parents are using. The set is also super intuitive. The moment Kali picked up the fork and spoon, she placed them upright, which is one of the reasons she likes to use this set everywhere - even during snack times in her playroom. We just put her snacks on the 矽膠聰明分隔盤 and then give it a quick wash and use it again for dinner on top of the plate.

Miniware is so easy to pack and carry. We live next to a sprawling nature park and often go there for family picnics. Our Miniware set is lightweight, durable and perfect for this! And talking about nature, do you know that Miniware's products are made of plant-based, recyclable materials? This is a great product that supports a great cause!

The first step to sustainable fashion is to drastically reduce your consumption. The second step is to mindfully replace any garments that need to be swapped out.

Although I shop secondhand for most of my closet, one thing that I haven’t gotten around to thrifting is underwear. As an alternative, I’ve taken to researching and trying small sustainable brands within the space to find my favorites to support.

Here are my honest thoughts on three sustainable and ethical underwear brands (Organic Basics, Hara, Aisle) that I've tried out!
