Sprouts Grand Opening @ The School, Jaya One

 Yay! School holidays is here. I guess these two months you won't be seeing me much lor coz Mamarazzi won't have much time to do blog posts.

Last Thursday we were fortunate to be invited for the Grand Opening of Sprouts at The School in Jaya One.

 

What is Sprouts?  It's a revolutionary 3 storey health care and development centre tailored with kids in mind. They have Kids' Clinic, Kids' Retail Pharmacy, Kids' Bookstore .....basically they have everything that a growing family needs!

Ground floor boast so real good variety of kids footwear, apparels and accessories.

 Bet my pink lady gf would look great in this. Too bad she won;t be in the same school as me next year... *sobs*

Guess I'll just have to drown my sorrow with toys la. 

 

 Lucky for me, Sprouts have a large section of toys suitable for all ages. Christmas is coming. *wink wink*

Not only that. They also have books too. From books suitable for toddler to older kids.

 

 Mamarazzi did not look at the pricing coz she was busy eyeing the Giraffe Cafe section. 

 There are two play area for kids too in Sprout. Ho! Ho! Ho! Sprout is the place where Kids Rules!

 What is this ah? Time machine? 

Cool! They have a Lift right in the middle of the store . Very kids and disable friendly. 

 

Bumped into this Lengchai on first floor. Nom nom....the cakes...I mean. 

 

HUH? 

 

 Diapers...Get me out of here! Not for me. Me big boy already leh. Can buy for Aunty KH la. So many choice and lovely pattern of Cloth Diaper. Environmental friendly and helps you saves money too.

Wow!

What a wide variety of pharmaceutical products they have here. Both local and imported also can be found here and it's catered especially for children, mothers with infants, and the expecting. I saw that they have Skin/Hair Care products,  Food & Snacks,  essentials for mothers, kids & infants and imported kids’ supplements.

 The top floor is a place special for Kids' Clinic.

 Wide and kids friendly waiting area.

There is a Kids Development Club here which have :-

SPROUTS is certainly a one-stop centre that cater for kids. This place is not stagnant. It's always revolving.

Oh Nasi Lemak ! Oh Termites!

Wokay wokay....This is the last "basi"(stale) post....errr.....till next year la....wanna clear off all the basi posts before new year come leh.

What's the story about Nasi Lemak? Nothing much la....Just that Mamarazzi lazy to cook lo so pakai hentam again. Just put the rice into rice cooker and put some santan, salt , pandan leaves and eggs into the rice cooker to make Nasi Lemak lor.

Eggs in rice cooker you said? Yup....coz lazy bum mah...lazy to make hardboiled eggs separately so just put into the rice cooker and boil together lor.

The sambal was easy to make coz each time we tapau Nasi Lemak, she would ask for the sambal to be packed separately. The extra sambal, she would put into the freezer. At time like this she just need to defrost the sambal, reheat and add in some "sotong"(Squid) & sliced onions. Done. Fried some chicken gizzard for Papa and fried eggs for herself . Yup...she doesn't like hard boiled eggs.

Me? I get to do the "food presentation".

Looks like Cookies Monster from the Sesame Street or not?

On a non-related matter, we went to Gardenia bread factory during our school trip and was given so many goodies . Not bad ya. 

Too bad no pic of me coz our group was split up. My group did not have a photographer. Nevertheless I had great time there. So much fun leh. The "gardenia Chef" made me laugh so much. 

After that we went to Tenmoku Pottery ...we played with clay and subsequently we were allowed to bring home our "creation" 

 Another "basi" news was that part of our car porch roof collapsed a few months ago. It happened on a super rainy and windy day. Lucky we were not home then or else sure the car kena "penyet"

From the traces of wood, there were sign of it's being "eaten". Ah Kong said must termites. Complained to the developer and they sent their men come and check.

True enough.....found part of the car porch roof having this. At that time we didn't know. Just took insect spray and sprayed the roof and the men said will come repair next day.

But Mamarazzi was worried about termites spreading into the house. Thanks to Auntie Siew, we got the contact of the Pest Control Company. Very efficient leh. Night time called him and next day the man, Jack, came already.

 

He checked the whole house. Thank goodness only the car porch kena. 

 

Said next time if have termites, MUST NOT spray and do not disturb . Coz spraying will also "chase" the termites from one part of the house to another part. Better to call in the professional put baits . The termites eat the bait and die in the colony and one eat another and die.....and so on.

Not sure whether it is common practice for this industry but Jack immediately set work to put the termites bait. Tarak mintak(didn't ask) payment first before start work wor. We only paid in a day or two later. 

He said they will come and check every two weeks . True enough. Mamarazzi did not need to call him. A day or two before the due date he will whatapps Mamarazzi to make appointment.

Glad to say that currently we are termites free now but the company will continue to come and check the house periodically.

Restaurant Kong Mah (港马点心), Subang Perdana

 Last Thursday, had to wake up super-duper early to go to school. 5.30am already kena Mamarazzi kick me wake up liao lo. Feeling super-duper sleepy and grumpy. Mamarazzi said padan muka....why last night sleep so late. Papa went fetch Ah Kong and Ah Mah from airport in night time flight I also wanna follow and kaypoh. So now not enough sleep is own fault lah.

Then why morning have to wake up so early? Nah... my school doesn't start that early lah. That morning had to send Ah Kong and Ah Mah plus pick up a relative and send them to airport. They were going to Singapore.

Ngum-ngum they purchase plane ticket which timing clashed with my school hours. Papa not enough time to come back from airport and send me to school. If wait then I'll be late for school lor. Sure  Cikgu will KNS be worried coz whole week we were preparing for our year end concert. yup...this Saturday is the Concert liao.

 After dropping them to the airport...too early to go school pulak. School gate not even open yet leh. Detour la....went to makan something first near the airport.

We were there first customers. The Dim Sum shop just opened and they were steaming the dim sum. Pretty soon...a try of freshly steamed dim sum came.

 Just point and choose which ever we want.

I had porridge and siew mai.

 

Papa and Mamarazzi choose these. 

After makan(eat), Papa ask wanna tapau Char Siew Pau for my class teacher or not. I said can also. Can bodek her so that she won't scold me give her a nice surprise.

After class, Papa and Mamarazzi came and pick up me up. Went and eat mixed rice. But after eating mixed rice I was still hungry. Lucky Mamarazzi have saved a burger for me ....I wanna eat the burger ah...but my eyes cannot open liao leh.........

Ahem...so back to "review" ...if you happens to be around Subang Airport area and looking for dimsum to eat, you can try out this  Restaurant Kong Mah. The address is No 15G, (Jln Dinar B U/3B), Tmn Subang Perdana,Selangor. Opens daily from dunno what time in the morning till 2-3pm in the afternoon. Their rest day falls on every Tuesday.

Printing Calendar with Photobook Malaysia

Nah! trimmed my hair already...short enough? Hahaha. Next month Christmas liao. Year end coming liao. I guess many businesses and companies will be printing Calender for own use or to be given out to customers.Usually this is also the time of year where Mamarazzi will ask her friend in the Bank whether they have extra calendar or not.

This year we are very lucky. We have got our Calender already. Wanna hear the whole story? Well...do you remember our post about "Scanning Old Treasures into Photobook"?

It seems that someone from Photobook Malaysia saw our post and is very happy about it. Guess we won't know who will be reading our blog posts out there ya? Could be nice people and could even be  psycho there *may God heal them*.

Anyway, surprise surprise....Photobook people wrote to us and thanked us for the unsolicited post *blush* . To show their  appreciation, they invited us to try out their newly launched product. It's a Personalised Calender that would be great for home, office and even would be the perfect thing as a gift.

Mamarazzi  was pretty excited. Turn on the Photobook Designer Software in her computer and looked for the Calender printing option.. Hmm....where is it ah? Tarak.

Adoi! Piak her head. People already said "New Product" of course la old version Photobook Designer don't have that option. The next day. she guai-guai went and downloaded the software again.

Fuiyo....now Photobook Malaysia not only offer printing photobooks only but also Canvas. Stationeries and Calendars too. 

There are wall calendar and desk calendar. The one Mamarazzi made was the 11x5 Desk Calendar.

Seems like pretty much the same method as making photobook 

Many page style to choose from. If don't like the page style, can always select a blank page and design it according to own preference.

 

Mamarazzi was satisfied with the page arrangement so she did not change or modify them much. She just add some background to the existing  backgrounds; using the photos she snapped.

She further typed in the holidays and important dates into the dates boxes. Everything done, just click the cart. paid for the shipping. upload the calendar online and wait for our calendar to arrive.

As usual, she received various updates from Photobook about status of the payment, printing and tracking of the arrival of the photobook. Love this service. 

Two days later, came back from school...our calendar was waiting for us. Ah....the one and only Cosmos plant ...Lovely bloom but tong tong chiang liao when we balik kampung last round amd it got attacked. Haiz...at least have a nice photo of it as a remembrance.

This is how it look like standing up. I can scribble in the relevant boxes if there is anything to add later on.

Alamak....school starts so soon ah......

 What Mamarazzi did for our Calender was this... she slotted in my photos which was taken in year 2014 to the respective months in 2015.

For example, February sees Papa and me celebrating out birthday together.

 Then in October, my first SCKLM Kids Dash due to influence by Auntie Lina and me getting mystery gift from The School in JayaOne.

At the very last page, Mamarazzi put in the photo of her strange Japanese Rose bloom. Weird....come out two colors. That was the one and only bloom with this strange mixed color. The rest of the time it was either red or yellow.

Oh...there was another odd incident too where it blooms different colors from the same stalk but Mamarazzi did not put into the calendar coz the quality of the photo was not sharp.

That is the good thing about photobook designer software. It will warn us if the photo quality uploaded is not good enough and that it will result in poor printing quality. Hence, we can choose whether to take the risk or just choose another photo.

Again....we like to thank Photobook Malaysia for giving us this unexpected gift. Thank you.

Jom to The School in JayaOne this School Holidays.

You know why I love to bodek Papa to bring me to The School in JayaOne every Sunday? Not solely for the Sun Day Out Indoors Cycling which happens on every Sunday from 10am to 3pm but also because there are loads of surprises every weekend.

I love the surprises each weekends. Sometimes it's a Flea market. sometimes it health talks. sometimes it's photo exhibition. Actually Mamarazzi can find out what activities they are having from their Facebook but you know Mamarazzi la....    

Last weekend was fun. The School had  Art & Crafts Weekend . There were : 

- BuildtoExpress Lego by The Gamesworks

 

- Paramotor & Hydromax

 

 - ClayTime

and

- Sun Day Out (kids' indoor cycling) 

 - Storytelling by Learning Fresh
- Yo-Yo performance by 28spin

- Rainbow Loom get-together (The Tree)

 Spotted also some really cool photos displayed in front of Doi Chaang Coffee which feature hard to find candid snap of some lovely spots around Malaysia which normally tourists did not think of visiting.

Spotted this too....  come the with the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' themed magic show at The School. Suitable for the whole family. Date  :  20 - 30 November 2014 .

What's great about is is that the purchase of each ticket will also sponsor an underprivileged child from Yayasan Chow Kit admission to one show. However, ones may also purchase it for own admission. 

Mamarazzi managed to get tickets for us to the show . Yipppeee! 

If you are interested, just hop over to there facebook VIVAS Magic Pirate of Carribean Magic Show for ticket price and show time. 
 

Heard over the grapevines that Sprouts will be opening in The School. JayaOne too.

Sprout is Malaysia’s latest unique childcare and development centre designed with the priorities of children in mind. Heard it's gonna occupy 3 floors and  Sprouts caters to all of children’s needs, from paediatricians, to pharmacists, and everything in between like books and toys!

Omigosh! Sprout even have two play areas, children to enjoy themselves which people like Mamarazzi and Papa goes exploring.

Looks like this school holidays must really sharpen my "bodek-ing" power and get them to bring me to The School. Surely this is not the only activities to be had there. Sure there will be a lot more. Just have to keep track of their Facebook.

Ahem ahem....by the way..this is not a paid post though may sound so. It's just that there are so many fun and educational things for me to do there. Sharing is caring , right? Just sharing information lah..
