We were in Mid Valley last Saturday and we were at the right time to catch the Mickey Mouse Through the yEars event. The event takes place at Centre Court, ground floor. This is a very fun school holiday event.

Can you spot the gigantic Mickey Mouse.

I purchased clothes at MNG and spent more than RM100 so we entitled to redeem one Mickey's passport.

Chocolate-Dipped Frozen Banana Bites

We had a potluck party at my grandmother house to celebrate mother's day early May.
As usual all the aunties would contribute their delicious and also signature dishes. For me, I just made this little snack, something as dessert for everyone. I get the recipe from here . I also search online to find out tips and tricks on how to melt the chocolate chips since I don't have microwave at home.

My first time making this chocolate-dipped frozen banana bites.  Kids love it. It is easy to make but I had a hard time melting the chocolate chips.

 I melted the  chocolate chips in a double broiler and my first few attempts were failure. They just went too thick, chunky and dry though I did add in some vegetable oil to thin it at the first place. There is a fine line between melted chocolate and overheated chocolate so I need to be very careful. Anywhere mission completed and I get to bring the dessert over to my grandmother house for the party.

The final outcome ( pictures taken before frozen) :

Chocolate-Dipped Frozen Banana Bites topping with peanuts and sprinkles.

Kids love it and lucky to have them to 'sapu' everything.

A closer shot. For me the presentation is failed. Some even out of shape, haha.

Kleenex : Share the Softness

It is now in the month of May and the first term of schooling is about to finish. I could not believe that the little 'stubborn one' is doing so well in the school though this is his first schooling year. One good thing I like at him now is that he is not only growing physically but also building up a good character from school. What I can observe now is the value of sharing has unconsciously shown on him at times go. I hope to see and feel the softness part of him as he grows.

Here are some of the photos taken from our everyday lives that I would like to post it here, to seize the opportunity to remind and encourage a 4-year-old,  how people and things around us care for each others.

The sun is always there to care for the world. Early to bed, early to rise will start your day right and catch the softness sunlight in the morning.

There is always soft and fluffy caring love around you. They can be your teachers, family and friends. Do remember sharing as it is one of the way showing others that you think of them..

You can also care and share your softness heart with a little creature like a crab on the beach.

Share your happiness always.

A Fathers Love can be as simple as a Kiss on the Cheek! Care your father by showering lots of kisses to him.

You can even share your love with a cartoon character like Pluto.

Not forgetting to share the softness : by sending a free pack of Kleenex tissue to people you care through the Kleenex® Malaysia Facebook fan page

An innovative, new campaign from Kleenex^®, Share the Softness, advocates the importance of softness in our everyday lives, and encourages sharing as a way of showing others that we care. “The Share the Softness campaign is one good way way of encouraging Malaysians to show that they care, and we hope that it doesn’t end with family and friends but also with neighbours, teachers and others in our community who make a difference in our lives.”

You can make some one happy with this World's NO 1facial  tissue from Kleenex.
