My Protein Breakfast

Not consuming enough protein can lead to several health issues, especially for women over 50. Some common signs of insufficient protein intake include fatigue and weakness, muscle loss and decreased strength, brittle hair and nails, excessive hair fall, dry and thinning skin, and a weakened immune system.

That is why it’s important to include enough protein in our daily diet, whether from plant-based sources or lean animal protein.

I try to include protein in every meal. My morning usually starts with a glass of water, followed by walnuts and roasted black beans, an orange, and a cup of decaf coffee with flaxseed meal and milk.

For my mid-morning breakfast, I usually have 2 eggs, sourdough or sprouted wheat bread with black sesame spread, a cup of sugar-free hot cocoa, and some groundnuts (the kind with shells), pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds.

I have been following a high-protein, low-carb diet since the year 2000, after being diagnosed with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), now officially known as Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS). It is an insulin resistance and metabolic disorder that can also contribute to infertility.

A low-carb, high-protein diet can help manage PCOS by stabilizing blood sugar levels, reducing insulin resistance, supporting weight management, and improving hormonal balance.

A Teacher’s Legacy: 62 Years of Friendship

This morning, one of my mum’s former students gave us a tub of homemade bubur cha cha. What makes this extra special is that my mum taught her when Mum was just 18 years old (in MGS Ipoh), and the student was only 10. Fast forward 62 years later, and they are still keeping in touch. They’ve even travelled to Indonesia together and still meet up for gatherings from time to time.

She isn’t the only former student who still keeps in contact with my mum either. Over the years, many of Mum’s students have remained connected with her through Facebook, and some still make it a point to visit her whenever they return to Malaysia. It’s quite rare these days, but honestly very heartwarming to see the lasting bonds a teacher can build over a lifetime.

And the bubur cha cha? SO good. It was filled with purple and yellow sweet potatoes, corn, sago, evaporated milk, and rich coconut milk. Absolutely yummy! 

First Experience at a Government Clinic in Ipoh — And It Was Surprisingly Efficient

For the first time in my life, I visited a Klinik Kesihatan (KK) in Ipoh this morning for a blood test. The clinic is in Kg Simee, just about a 5-minute drive from my house. I had gone there once last month to register and get an appointment date.

For the past 35 years while living in KL, I’ve always done my blood tests and medical checkups at private clinics or hospitals. So honestly, I never really considered going to a government clinic before.

My elderly parents encouraged me to try KK for routine blood tests and medication since it’s free. But I always imagined government clinics would be extremely crowded, with patients waiting half a day just for their turn. That impression probably came from my past experience bringing Cass, my youngest daughter, to HKL for her Urology and Nephrology consultations, where we usually spent at least half a day — sometimes almost the whole day there, and at times, even spilled over to another day.

This morning, I arrived at KK Kg Simee at 7.40am and received queue number 97. Seeing that number made me think, “That’s it, I’ll probably be here for the next three hours.” But surprisingly, the whole process was very efficient. Within just two hours, I was completely done — blood drawn and all. Even my parents were surprised at how fast it was.

Thankfully, I trusted my instincts about the parking situation and decided to take Grab instead. Good decision! The parking area was absolutely packed. I noticed many other patients were arriving by Grab too.

Today was only for the blood test. I’ll be returning in two weeks for a doctor’s consultation, so I’ll see how long the waiting time is for that. Most likely, I’ll take Grab again and spare myself the stress of hunting for parking.

Overall, I’m pretty satisfied with my first experience having a blood test done at a government facility. And honestly, the best part? It was completely FOC yo! 😆

Why I Pay More Attention to Protein Intake After 50

As we grow older, getting enough protein becomes increasingly important for maintaining muscle strength, energy levels, and overall health. Most adults generally need between 0.8 to 1.6 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight daily, depending on age, activity level, and health condition. Since I weigh about 42kg, I try to aim for around 42 grams of protein a day to make things simple.

For breakfast, I usually eat two medium-sized eggs, which provide approximately 12 to 12.6 grams of protein. I also enjoy a small handful of walnuts — around 8 to 10 whole walnuts — together with one tablespoon of roasted black beans and another tablespoon of pumpkin and sunflower seeds for extra nutrients and healthy fats.

Lunch is usually something simple but protein-rich, such as roast chicken breast, boiled chickpeas, or lean pork. For dinner, my dad often prepares steamed fish or chicken, which adds even more quality protein to my meals. Besides that, I also include milk, yogurt, flaxseed meal, and soaked chia seeds in my daily diet. Altogether, my protein intake likely reaches around 40 grams a day, or sometimes even more.

Protein plays a vital role in human health. It helps build and repair muscles, supports healthy bones, strengthens the immune system, and keeps the body functioning properly. As we age, adequate protein intake becomes even more important because muscle mass naturally declines over time. Eating enough protein can help support strength, mobility, recovery, and healthy ageing.

Strength Training with My 80-Year-Old Mum – Session 4 & 5

There is something very motivating about learning and growing stronger together with my 80-year-old mum. In our recent strength training sessions, our personal trainer, Sharon, introduced us to a variety of exercises designed to strengthen our upper body, lower body, and core muscles.

Every session feels different and exciting. We get to try various equipment and training methods — from weight machines and dumbbells to kettlebells and resistance bands. The elastic band exercises may look simple, but they are surprisingly challenging and really work our legs, arms, hands, and core muscles.

The first few sets are usually the toughest. Our muscles feel tired quickly, and sometimes we wonder how many more repetitions we can manage. But interestingly, after a while, the movements begin to feel smoother and lighter, almost as if the body is slowly adapting and becoming stronger.

Strength training is definitely hard work, especially at our age differences, but it is also very rewarding. Day by day, we can feel improvements in our strength, balance, and endurance. It is not just about lifting weights — it is about building confidence, staying active, and taking care of our health together.

Most importantly, these training sessions have become precious bonding moments for my mum and me. Growing stronger together is truly a wonderful journey.

Shirudo Disposable Nitrile Gloves

I used to hate washing dishes. Definitely one of my least favourite household chores… right up there with ironing

But weirdly, disposable nitrile gloves changed that for me. I started using them a few years ago and now I can’t imagine doing kitchen work without them. Compared to those thick reusable rubber gloves, disposable nitrile gloves are much thinner, more comfortable, and the grip is so much better. Washing oily containers and slippery dishes feels less annoying somehow.

I’ve been using Top Glove for the longest time, but recently tried Shirudo and honestly… surprisingly very good too. I like the pink and orange ones. Quality feels very similar and the price is a bit cheaper. I usually wear one pair throughout the day as long as I don’t accidentally get water inside

Nowadays I always keep a few boxes at home together with my lemon kitchen wipes and disposable electrostatic papers. My OCD side feels calmer when everything stays clean and less “icky”

For those asking, this is the one I got recently:

These disposable nitrile gloves are very durable and don't tear easily.

Mother's Day 2026 Dinner

On Mother’s Day, I told my parents that I wanted to bring them out for a nice meal and treat them to something special. But my dad was reluctant and insisted on cooking instead. His reason? He had bought tofu on Saturday and said it had to be cooked soon before it went bad. 😄

So mum and I happily let him take over the kitchen. I suggested something simple — braised chicken in the pressure cooker. Mum started googling for an easy recipe, but dad confidently said, “Aiya, this one easy peasy lah,” and insisted he already knew all the ingredients without needing any recipe.

And honestly, he was absolutely right. The braised chicken, pressure-cooked with soy sauce, Chinese cooking wine, ginger, mushrooms, star anise, cardamom, and garlic, turned out so delicious and comforting. He also made braised tofu with salted fish bones, which was incredibly flavourful and paired perfectly with the meal. On top of that, he double-boiled a radish soup, blanched lettuce, and steamed black rice for mum and himself.

In the end, it wasn’t a fancy restaurant celebration, but it became a simple, nourishing, and heartwarming home-cooked Mother’s Day dinner — the kind that feels extra special because it was made with love. ❤️

How did you celebrate Mother’s Day this year?

Mothers' Day 2026

This morning, my mum made a rich and delicious chocolate mug cake using the microwave oven. Preparation took only about 15 minutes, and the baking time was just 90 seconds. It turned out so moist, chocolaty, and incredibly good. That was her little Mother’s Day gift to me. 🥰

Later at around 2pm, Alycia, who is currently holidaying in Ho Chi Minh, surprised us by ordering some of our favourite desserts from Doubā through GrabFood. Such a thoughtful treat from afar. ❤️

Two weeks ago, when my younger brother was back in Ipoh, we had an early Mother’s Day celebration. We went to Durbar at FMS for a sumptuous dinner before heading to Secret Recipe the following day for cake-cutting. My dad, who is 83 this year, still prefers the old-school style cakes over the modern fancy ones. We tried the kunafa pistachio brownie and chocolate fudge cake, which were really good. One thing about Secret Recipe — their cakes never disappoint. 🍰

To all the mothers reading this post, Happy Mother’s Day to you. ❤️

Motherhood is not easy. There are days filled with frustration, exhaustion, worries, and moments when you feel like giving up. But through it all, you kept going, loving, sacrificing, and doing your very best for your children. That alone makes you an amazing mum.

Even if your efforts are not always seen or appreciated now, your children will understand one day. So today, take a moment to celebrate yourself too. You deserve the love, appreciation, and happiness. 🌸

Life Lately: A Quick Update On My Daughters

It suddenly struck me that I haven’t shared much about my 3 girls lately. Some of you may also be getting a little bored of my gym and strength training videos with my mum 😄 So here’s a little life update on my daughters.

Alycia, my eldest, flew off to Ho Chi Minh City today with a group of friends. This is already her third trip to Vietnam! She has always loved travelling since she was young and is constantly planning her next adventure.

Sherilyn, my middle child, is busy as usual with a new university semester, dance classes, and part-time jobs to help fund her multiple dance lessons. I honestly wonder where she gets all that energy from sometimes!

As for Cass, my youngest baby, she has just completed a month of shadow coaching for figure skating. Starting next week, she’ll officially be teaching beginner skating classes, and parents have already started texting her about lessons. On top of that, she is now waiting for her official offer letter from Universiti Malaya (UM) for the Foundation in Social Sciences programme. I’m truly thankful and proud that she got into Malaysia’s top university, and even happier that it’s close to home in KL.

That’s all for this little update on my girls for now ❤️

As for me, I’ll be busy with writing assignments over the next week and hoping to finish everything before heading to KL next Saturday for Cass’s SPM award ceremony.

Here's a pic of me taken at the gym today. Video to follow soon on my Facebook page😜

When Your Dad Treats Cockroaches Like Nothing Happened

I have a confession to make. At 53, I still have katsaridaphobia — yes, a full-on fear of cockroaches.

I will scream the moment I see one… even in front of my daughters. No shame, no control, just pure panic 😅

Just now after we came back from dinner, I walked into the kitchen and there it was — right in the middle, staring at me like it owned the place.

Dad was around, so I shouted for help.

Dad, being his usual nonchalant self, just said, “Never mind lah, let it be, k*ll it for what.”

I immediately replied, “NO. Just k*ll it!”

He calmly walked over, picked up his kitchen slipper, and smacked it.

And then—this is the part that nearly ended me—he used his fingers to pick the smashed thing up and threw it into the bin.

I almost fainted on the spot.

Then, as if nothing happened, he wore the same slipper again and casually walked around the kitchen.

I was still recovering from trauma.

The moment he went into the bathroom, I went full cleaning mode—sprayed antibacterial spray everywhere, scrubbed his slippers, and sprayed the kitchen again for good measure.

For someone with OCD and cockroach phobia… this is basically my worst nightmare combo.

So tell me honestly… who’s also a real cockroach phobic here? 😂

Strength Training With a Personal Trainer - Session #2 | My 80-Year-Old Mum & Me (53)

 Our second strength training session with Sharon, our personal trainer, was both fun and very rewarding 💪

This time, we focused on strengthening both our lower and upper body using different weight machines. Sharon patiently guided us step by step, making sure we used the correct posture and technique to avoid injury and get the most out of each movement.

We also learned how to do squats using dumbbells—something that looks simple but actually requires proper form and balance. It was a great exercise for building leg strength and stability, especially important as we age.

One of the most valuable things Sharon emphasized again was proper breathing during weight training. Knowing when to inhale and exhale may seem like a small detail, but it plays a big role in improving performance, maintaining control, and ensuring safety during each exercise.

What I really appreciate is how the training is tailored to suit both Mum and me, taking into account her age and condition while still allowing us to progress at our own pace.

We’re both enjoying this journey so much, and it’s really encouraging to see Mum staying active and committed. Can’t wait for our next session (even if it comes with a little muscle soreness 😄)

Muzi Matcha Cafe @ Tambun, Ipoh

Tucked away in the peaceful neighbourhood of Tambun, Ipoh, Muzi Matcha Café is a hidden gem that feels like stepping into a serene Japanese retreat. Housed in a charming bungalow, this café has quickly gained popularity for its Instagram-worthy aesthetics, calming ambiance, and of course—its dedication to all things matcha.

From the moment we stepped in, the atmosphere was soothing and inviting. The minimalist Japanese-inspired design, combined with soft natural lighting and greenery, made it the perfect spot to unwind after a meal. It’s the kind of place where time slows down, and you just want to sit back and savour every sip and bite.

We visited the café after lunch, looking for somewhere cozy to enjoy some light desserts and drinks—and Muzi did not disappoint.

🍵 What We Tried

Being a family of matcha lovers we couldn’t resist sampling a variety of their signature items.

• Matcha Cheesecake – Rich, creamy, and beautifully balanced. It reminded me very much of the ones from The Tokyo Restaurant at Lot 10 in KL—definitely a compliment!
• Strawberry Daifuku (Mochi) – A clear favourite among my girls. Soft, chewy, and filled with a delightful combination of fresh strawberry and sweet filling.
• Matcha Latte & Green Tea – As someone who is quite particular about matcha, I must say I was genuinely impressed. The green tea was smooth, fragrant, and incredibly satisfying.

In fact, I loved their green tea so much that I was tempted to buy some home. Unfortunately, they don’t sell their green tea bags —but they do offer Muzi matcha powder (RM88 for 50g), which I already happen to have at home (thanks to a thoughtful birthday gift from Alycia’s friend).

💚 The Verdict

Muzi Matcha Café is more than just a place to eat—it’s an experience. Whether you’re a matcha enthusiast or simply looking for a peaceful café to relax in, this spot ticks all the boxes.

The desserts are thoughtfully crafted, the drinks are top-notch, and the ambiance makes you want to linger just a little longer.

We truly enjoyed our time there and are already looking forward to our next visit—especially when my girls are back in Ipoh again to visit me.

Strength Training At 53

Today, my 80-year-old mum and I attended our very first strength training session with a personal trainer 💪

Before we even started, our trainer Sharon (IFC Gym, Ipoh) —such a warm and friendly lady—sat down with us to understand our health conditions, daily habits, and diet. I really appreciated this part, because it made the session feel very personalised and thoughtful, rather than just a “one size fits all” workout. She also shared some simple nutrition tips to support our training.

One of the most important things she taught us was proper breathing technique—when to inhale and exhale during each exercise, whether we were using weights or not. It sounds basic, but it actually makes a big difference in how effectively and safely we exercise.

We were then guided step by step on how to use the different weight machines correctly (no more guessing at the gym 😄), followed by a short floor exercise session.

Since Mum has been dealing with sciatica, Sharon also showed us specific exercises to help relieve the pain and loosen tight muscles. It was very reassuring to know that these movements can be done safely and consistently to improve her condition over time.

Overall, it was such a positive and encouraging experience. Mum and I really enjoyed the session, and more importantly, we feel confident and motivated to continue.

Can’t wait for our next class… even if it means a bit more muscle soreness tomorrow 😆

Sam Poh Tong Temple Visit With Cass

When Cass was in Ipoh early this month, we visited Sam Poh Tong Temple, a beautiful limestone cave temple nestled in Gunung Rapat, Ipoh. It wasn't our first visit - many times for me, and second time for Cass. She visited this place moons ago when she was a tiny little girl and has little recollection of it😊

Carved within a majestic limestone hill, this unique temple blends nature and spirituality in the most peaceful way. As you step inside, you’re greeted by a cool, tranquil cave setting, along with a charming garden and a pond filled with tortoises, surrounded by stunning limestone formations.

We made our way up to the highest level inside the cave, curious to see what was waiting for us… and at the top, we found serene Buddha statues quietly watching over the space.

The best part? There’s no entrance fee. It’s a wonderful place for Buddhists to pray, and for non-Buddhists like us, it’s a lovely spot to explore and admire the natural beauty of a limestone cave.

Just outside the cave, there’s also a beautifully landscaped garden with a fish pond — perfect for a relaxing stroll and some photography.

Stronger Together: Mum and I Start Our Strength Training Journey

Yesterday, Mum and I attended a strength training workshop at IFC Gym—currently the only gym in Ipoh that offers specialised programmes for senior citizens.

We first heard about it through Mum’s 88-year-old friend, who has been training there and has seen noticeable improvements in her mobility. That was encouraging, especially since Mum has been dealing with persistent joint and limb pain every morning. She was advised that strength training could help improve her mobility and potentially ease those aches by strengthening both muscles and bones.

We attended the theory session last month, and this time, it was all about hands-on practice.

The workshop was divided into three parts: lower body strength training, upper body strength training, and bodyweight exercises using free weights and resistance bands. There was also a complimentary antioxidant test, which measured our body’s antioxidant levels—quite an interesting addition to the session.

Having lived in a condo with gym facilities for 17 years, I have to admit I barely used most of the equipment beyond the treadmill, air walker, and rowing machine. It felt a little ironic that we are now paying to properly learn how to use these machines—but honestly, it’s worth it. The personal trainers were incredibly patient, friendly, and attentive, guiding us step by step.

Most participants were senior citizens, and I think I was among the youngest there—which made the experience even more heartwarming.

The antioxidant test results were a pleasant surprise. Mine came back very high (in a good way!), and I suspect my daily matcha, green tea, and “an orange a day” habit might have something to do with it.

By the end of the workshop, Mum and I were so convinced that we signed up for a personal training package (10 sessions) along with a gym membership. As a bonus, the lifetime membership fee was waived since we signed up on the spot.

We genuinely enjoyed the session and are looking forward to our first personal training class.

The only “downside”—or maybe a good sign—is that my arms were aching throughout the night, similar to that post-vaccine soreness. But I can already feel my muscles waking up… even the little flab under my arms is starting to feel firmer 😄

Stadium Food Court, Ipoh

Whenever I’m back in Ipoh, one place I must visit is Stadium Food Court — or simply “Stadium” as the locals call it. It’s my favourite spot because you can find almost everything here: famous Ipoh nga choi kai (bean sprout chicken), char koay teow, popiah, sotong kangkung, fruit rojak, pasembur, claypot noodles, claypot chicken rice, hor hee, Indian rice, Malay rice, porridge, Hong Kong CCF, fried fish head noodles, ice kacang, cendol, the famous Ipoh tau foo far and so much more! 😋

Now that I’m back in Ipoh permanently, we come here even more often — especially when my daughters return from KL. It’s truly a place filled with good food and family memories ❤️

Cowan Street Ayam Tauge & Koitiau Restaurant, Ipoh

Whenever people talk about Ipoh’s famous nga choi gai (bean sprout chicken), a few well-known names always come up, such as Lou Wong and Onn Kee. But for many Ipohites—especially those who grew up here decades ago—one name quietly stands above the rest:

Cowan Street Ayam Tauge & Koitiau Restaurant.

Recently, we made a return visit to this legendary stall that has been serving its signature bean sprout chicken for more than 50 years. The owner himself is now around 70 to 80 years old, yet the taste that built its reputation is still very much alive.

This visit brought back many memories.

When we were still pre-teens, Dad used to bring us here to eat. Back then, there wasn’t even a proper shop yet—the stall operated as a humble open-air hawker setup. We sat under the evening sky, enjoying bowls of steaming hot hor fun and tender poached chicken.

Fast forward more than 40 years later, and here we were again—returning to the same place, tasting the same flavours that shaped our childhood.

These days, we hardly come to this part of Ipoh anymore. The area has become quite touristy, parking can be very difficult, and the crowd is often overwhelming. But this time, we made the trip because a visitor from KL specifically wanted to try one of Ipoh’s most popular nga choi gai spots—and Cowan Street was the obvious choice.

What Makes Cowan Street Different?

Across Ipoh, many shops serve bean sprout chicken that looks quite similar at first glance.

You get:

smooth poached chicken

crunchy, juicy Ipoh bean sprouts

silky hor fun

But what truly sets Cowan Street apart is something else entirely—their secret sauce (in my opinion as an Ipoh girl who has tasted their competitors' offerings).

The sauce here is incredibly addictive. It adds a deep layer of umami that transforms the chicken and bean sprouts from something simple into something memorable. It’s the kind of flavour that makes you keep reaching back for “just one more bite”… until suddenly the plate is empty.

And then there’s the soup.

Personally, what I love most about Cowan Street’s bean sprout chicken is the chicken soup served with hor fun. It’s rich, hearty, and comforting—the kind of soup that warms you from the inside out. Combined with their signature smooth hor fun, it’s easily one of the highlights of the meal.

Don’t Miss the Braised Chicken Feet

If you enjoy chicken feet, their braised chicken feet is another must-try.They are slowly braised in a fragrant broth of soy sauce, herbs, and spices until tender and flavourful. Every bite is infused with savoury richness that makes it hard to stop at just one piece.

Definitely worth ordering alongside the classic bean sprout chicken.

Worth the Queue:

Yes, the parking is still challenging.

Yes, the crowds can still be intense.

And yes, you may need to wait.

But once that bowl of hot chicken soup arrives, together with silky hor fun, smooth poached chicken, crunchy bean sprouts, and that unforgettable sauce—you’ll understand why generations of Ipoh families keep coming back.

If you’ve never tried Cowan Street’s nga choi gai before, it’s absolutely worth making the trip.

Some flavours don’t just fill your stomach—they bring you home again. ❤️

Mum's Health Scare

Earlier this week, my mum gave us quite a health scare.

It started with her having a tummy ache that lasted for more than two weeks. Late last week, she went to the clinic for a checkup and had her stool tested. On Monday, she returned to see the doctor and the results showed there was blood in her stool.

Naturally, we were very worried. Dad quickly brought her to see her usual surgeon to arrange for a colonoscopy the very next day.

On Tuesday, the three of us went together for her procedure. It was a very anxious wait for all of us, because blood in the stool is never something to take lightly.

Thank God, after more than an hour of waiting, the doctor reassured us that the colonoscopy showed no signs of malignancy. We even got to see the video of her colon — it was clean and clear, with no lumps or obstruction. We were so relieved and thankful.

After the procedure, we went for a simple meal together. Mum had fish porridge, while Dad and I shared roast duck and roast pork wantan mee. Somehow, food always tastes extra comforting after a scare like this.

Moments like these remind us not to take our health for granted. I’m truly grateful for this piece of good news, and I pray we won’t have to go through another scare like this again — for my parents or for myself. 🙏
