Bottle It Up

Blessed Father’s Day, Pa! Thank you for your many years of hard work, love and dedication as the head of our family. Thank you for your constant care and daily calls, including nagging us to make sure our doors are closed and locked, and to remember to drink more water and sleep early. 😆 Looking forward to going back home soon to spend time with you and Mummy! I love you, Pa ❤️ Here’s wishing all who are playing a fatherly figure role, Happy Father’s Day! Thank you for being a hero! https://www.instagram.com/p/CBrisw2Fdhw-vcGebwJR0HdK4Sm6RU_FaUdzUU0/?igshid=1v11kqu5moeha

I will always remember how gentle and kind you were, and never failing to make me laugh with your humour. Thank you for your love and care especially when we were staying in JB and whenever we were back visiting. You have been such a great blessing to us. One of my favourite memories will always be our frequent meals together in Schumann and how we could just hang out together and kacau one another like family. Not forgetting our annual CNY meet-ups in Prt Jawa. We miss you dearly but I know we will meet again someday. For now, I will cherish our many happy memories and rejoice that you are in our Saviour’s loving arms forever. ❤️ https://www.instagram.com/p/CBE6W40FSFzHTAMJhPTd8l_M8HhkoF79jNGvE00/?igshid=g9rte96fb2uw

Looking forward to the day where I can be out exploring again...😍 #canvasprint https://www.instagram.com/p/CA9YiWclY1thGq9HNA3vNQQ5a46BJLQshDKNyY0/?igshid=46l4kayd395x

This 13-episode drama on @mewatch.mediacorp is so heart-warming! 😭😍 Totally inspired by the main character who is such a strong and resilient woman! And I love how the script celebrated the art of the chinese opera and emphasized on the ever important value of putting our family first! 👍👍 Must-watch! 🤩 https://www.instagram.com/p/CAkBh-tF8zZ9UWWCVBy1jMYJ90qcubyZcYYloc0/?igshid=1qybbcjfukkqs

Time for another post of some of my better looking experiments! It’s been 66 days of lockdown for me. Thank God that I’m comfortable, healthy and still happily cooking! 😊🥳 https://www.instagram.com/p/CAU9qdmlRQ-EpvtWPOy-aJJEsQxPkOjv-zX-c00/?igshid=1lsa86lhbc68w

This movie reminded and encouraged me to keep trusting that God is good and He loves us no matter what our circumstances may be. I’m incredibly touched by this true story of the Beam family. 😭😍 Not everyone’s gonna believe, but I hope and pray that you do. ❤️ https://www.instagram.com/p/CAPfKLvl4FMJreTMkJWuWOoYmhNHSomT2r0U7Q0/?igshid=yxkshpm3228z

Mummyyyyyyyy! Thank you for being a consistently admirable and God-fearing role model throughout my life. I appreciate our morning and evening calls every day during this unprecedented times where you have been guiding me to cook and encouraging me to keep trying, laughing about silly things and being in awe of my little experiments haha I’m now finally putting into practice all that I’ve observed you doing in the kitchen! 😆 I realized that it’s really tiring to cook especially after a hard day’s work and I‘m so touched and grateful that you did that for us almost every day while we were younger to make sure we had the best home-cooked food even though you had a full time job. Thank you, Mummy! 😭🥰 I can’t wait to head back home as soon as the situation permits, hopefully real soon! I pray that God will continue to bless you with the best of health and joy each day. I love you, Mummy. ❤️ Wishing a blessed Mother’s Day to my mum and all mothers - you are all superb in your own ways! 😘 https://www.instagram.com/p/B__TN6HF7qoRUDDSSIkd_o5JiwO5W-DaHO-C-80/?igshid=1tp2e29xd1zl9

This MCO has definitely got me cooking my own meals properly which I never thought was possible😆 Been watching my mom cook all my life but I’ve never really done much of the cooking myself. One thing’s for sure - ai is cooking now! 👩🏻‍🍳 Thank God I’ve not had any tummy ache so far 😉 Anyway, these are some of the nicer tasting/looking ones, definitely need more practice on seasoning! #everyonecancook #stayhome #thankYou (at Penang Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-00PKtFWrGGTQgxHmEBYAnEc_gdenRLtMGgNE0/?igshid=1kj6avh8x0ney

Made my own pork balls! I’m posting this because they actually taste really yummy! 😆😋 Best of all, it’s air-fried! 👍👍 https://www.instagram.com/p/B-jE-lylCpYTrDSoU4XhdMFtpef7h2tm4NFVQw0/?igshid=13ji5fbl2ddk8

Got a call early this morning from the pork seller whom I bought some pork from earlier this week saying that she was reaching my place in a few minutes to pass me this tray of eggs and bread. Gotta be one of the most incredible mornings I’ve ever had especially during this MCO period! I’ve only met her once and texted her on whatsapp for the pork purchase, but she went all out to help me as she knew I needed them. The topic came up because she was giving me suggestions on how to cook the pork which I bought from her. 😆 Truly thank God for sending me angels like her during this time and I pray that she will continue to be safe and well while doing her bit for the community amidst making a living. ❤️ #thankYou (at Penang Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-YjQBWlB-ZNA2vF6AhCrG7uHFSezJaJ79ulHA0/?igshid=ak6obr84t7ul

And so our weekly family altar continues via whatsapp videocall with singing, sharing, prayer, holy communion and photo-taking! ❤️ https://www.instagram.com/p/B-Ug_lyFv4b8qE-WZuDCTRIDYjsAQF8g4a0bO40/?igshid=h9433gtg3b58

Malaysia, Singapore, Germany and France reunited on zoom! 🥳 https://www.instagram.com/p/B-Cl8omFOcY479GuKDFo5QMQBtc5YoKma_IXC80/?igshid=bwa96bpy39r7

Thankful for technology which allows online streaming of church services during this interesting period of time! Definitely blessed and edified by the worship and preaching through God’s faithful servants. Stay safe and have a blessed Sunday, everyone! 🤩 https://www.instagram.com/p/B-BgfiiF8l5unVwqlBsLedZ693veafRvPdftec0/?igshid=k5290l3o0qkv

Gotta have these videocalls to keep myself sane from staying at home alone 24/7! #thebareminimum #wewillsurvive https://www.instagram.com/p/B9zJCpGF0ao7MKgxOd_oPrSFYsXGh3eHkW4MXQ0/?igshid=qi58vm4kq3cb
