Frozen Fruity Rainbow Yogurt

Fruits, dessert, cold food and rainbow. All in one, for my dear children.

I don't really fancy dessert. I prefer savoury food but my children love dessert and everything else mentioned above.

Since I am fond of experimenting with all kinds of food, I came up with a delightful dessert for them. It was a time when we had a variety of fruits at home.

OK. Lets start.

Ingredients: Fruits of different colours (here I have pomegranate, mango, pineapple, green apples, and grapes), yogurt (any flavour of your choice) and any soft plastic containers. I use the yogurt container.

1. Cut fruits into tiny pieces.

2. Arrange the first layer of fruits (of your choice), and then put a layer of yogurt on top of it.

3. Arrange another layer of fruits on top, followed by another layer of yogurt on top.

4. Repeat until you reach the brim of the container, with yogurt as the last layer.

5. Leave them in the freezer to freeze.

6. To serve, just flip the container and slowly remove the fruity rainbow yogurt by gently squeezing the container at all sides and let it slide onto the plate.

Note: You can also use ice cream to substitute the yogurt.

Have fun making this colourful dessert! 😀

Stress Free Mode

Now, as I typed on my laptop, my 5 year-old daughter sits in front of me, doing her own work. She is doing something on her own. Something that no one tells her to do. It is 100% at her own will. She is copying from a storybook. It is a Malay storybook she borrowed from school. And she is trying to read as she copies. She is smiling as she tries to read the words and although she still struggles with many of the words, she is smiling while she tries. Once in a while, she would ask me how to pronounce a certain syllable. And now, she is singing out the words she copies. _________________________________________________ This scene, right in front of me, is the result of an important lesson I learnt a year ago. I learnt that, for effective learning to take place, the learner should be in a "stress free mode". And for them to be in that mode, it most probably has to be something they find interesting or rather, something they w...

The 😱😱😱 Moment When I Lifted The Wok Cover

I couldn't even recall when I cooked this plate of rice. It was a little less than a fortnight ago, few days before Chinese New Year (CNY) but I just couldn't remember if it was on Jan 31 or Feb 1. Hmmm. Was it forgetfulness or negligence? Yes, we were all busy preparing for CNY, buying cookies, new clothes, packing up, making sure we have enough new notes for the "angpow" or red packets, and we still wanted to do CNY scrapbooks (with the children), etc... With so many things to do, was it forgivable? That I left a plate of steamed rice in the wok? I only found the plate of rice in the wok when I was about to prepare lunch, on Feb 10. The rice has been there for about 10 days! 😱😱😱 Fortunately it was in the wok. It was not difficult to clean up. I would be so frustrated if it was in the rice cooker. I hate washing the rice cooker. That's why I have kept it away in the storeroom for years. Fortunately , it was just a plate of rice left there an...

Mongo Plant vs Garlic Plant

A few years ago my son was into growing plants and asked if he could grow some flowers. We did not have any flower seeds at home and I suggested that he plant some mongo seeds instead. The other reason I told him to grow mongo seeds is that they grow very fast and kids are not very patient at waiting for results. So everyday, as we leave the house for school (he was attending kindergarten then) he would look at the plants and say, "Mommy! They are growing!" A few days after we planted the mongo seeds, I suggested that we plant some garlic. This time, unlike the mongo seeds that showed some growth immediately on the following day, the garlics showed none. Two days after we planted the garlics, we went on a short vacation and when we returned, he saw some changes to the garlic plant and shouted, "Mommy, look! The garlics are growing!" Two weeks after that, we found time to do some detailed observations on the plants. We compared the roots and ...
