Hubby went for his 1st outstation this week, travelling by flight within Sarawak only.
After he got back, we went to have this ais kantong. It’s my 1st time having this, I love it, but it can be a bit dangerous for someone who loves ice like me, I almost injured my lips, maybe due to ice burn.
Our fur babies are 15 weeks old now. They are super active and naughty.
So our office is back the old normal working hour. And I had migraine attack on my 1st full day back to office. What a day!
Other than that, the only thing that I look forward during this RMCO is balik kampung. Had to wait until Saturday before I can go back. So happy to be home. I feel that both my parents age so much during this 3 months. Kesian tengok diorang, sakit-sakit sendi semua.
Ohh another great things this week was the share market were very active. Managed to sell some of my share at a bery good price. Boleh la cover more than of of my robot vacuum-mop.
This is my 2nd robot vacuum set. My 1st set was purchased exactly 10 years ago, the PicaBot eVo2. Used it for a few years before it breaks down. That time we started having a cleaning lady coming over during weekend. So I don’t see the need to purchase a new robot vacuum.
The problem starts again when we begin the MCO. Arghh, all those sweeping and mopping, it’s like never ending story! I started browsing on robot vacuum again. 10 years different, now there are so many options available, from as cheap as below RM100 to a few thousand ringgit.
2 of my must have criteria:
1. Global version
2. Vacuum with mop function, and must able to function at the same time. (Sekali jalan gitu)
Hence, my best option is Xiaomi Robot Vacuum-Mop Mijia 1C.
Before I finally got my hands on the set, I went through a series of drama. I messaged 2 of the so-called official Mi Store on Shopee. Both of them never reply to me. I messaged them a few times within 1 week. Of cause, in the end, I file in a report to Shopee.
I also messaged Kuching’s one and only Mi official store, through their FB account, the admin reply saying that they have the stock in Kuching. So, on the last day of CMCO, I went to their store. How disappointed I was when the staff said they don’t have any. It was my 1st going to a Mall just to get this and you said you don’t have any!!! I don’t want to urgent, social distancing what, I try to project my unhappiness through my small eye, not sure if they get the message or not.
So last Friday evening, when I saw the Kuching store posted on FB, saying they have new arrival, I straight away give them a call, to confirm of the vacuum-mop, and to inform them that I will go and get it the next morning. The next morning, I reach the store before they even opened their door. Not kaisu ok, I just want to beat the crowd. I still try to avoid people as much as I can.
Payment and check out took less than 15min, and we were out of the mall with my new robot vacuum. Happy? Yes, but I can save about RM150 if I buy it from Shopee, during offer. Still some regrets there. What would you do, if the Shopee store never reply you, will you still purchase from them? I only message them for item cost more than RM500.
After using the robot for 2 days. I am so happy with its performance, I don't mind the price. Thank goodness for all these technologies.
For Mopping function, you can set the water level from low, medium or high. I am lovin' it.
This weekend is a busy one. I promote my snake plants online, and was sold out within 24 hours. There will be 2nd batch next week, will be getting more from my mum’s house. Selling at a low price, definitely lower than nursery’s price. Just letting go and make way for other new plants.
Besides potted plants, I am also planted some new veggies at the backyard. I only clear a small area, can’t take care too much.
Pumpkin, ash gourd, ladies finger, bayam, and onion.
I also order some kek lapis this week, wanted to order for Gawai but mostly aold out last week. This week only got new stock.
Here’s some of what we had this week.
Pork ribs and burger from Howdy.
1st time cooking my mum’s classic recipe, Bamboo shots with salted fish. Yummy.
Here’s some of what my mum said pack for me from kampung. Banana and her specialty, pulut sambal. Sedap. Rindu mak, hope can balik kampung soon.
Nota kaki: Today we finished up the 2nd bag of rice since the start of MCO.
My hometown is less than an hour drive from Kuching. But since we are not in the same district. We don’t want to take the risk. Just #stayathome this time. However, we did had our small bbq gathering at my sister’s house on Gawai eve. At least 2 of my sisters are in Kuching too.
Gawai eve dinner.
This year, I did not make any cookies, but I made my very 1st kek lapis. I love it. It taste great, just that the tray I use was too big.
Last week I mentioned that I went to Aeon but I did not get the Corelle set. Guess what! I just can’t stop thinking about it and I went back on the next day. Hehe, so here there are, my 3rd Corelle purchase.
Let’s see what I had in my kitchen this week.
And also some of the things that I bought from Shopee.
