So, after a whole month of birthdays in September, then came my baby girl's birthday! Well, not so baby anymore now...
Isabelle turned 4 on 9th October. This year, I decided to have her birthday celebrated in school given this would be her first time plus since I have some time now to make goodies for her friends. Isabelle has grown from loving "Baby TV" to Mickey Mouse and now to princesses! Right after Mei Mei's birthday which was way back in April, she kept on reminding me that she wanted a princess cake for her birthday. Honestly, I don't remember anything about princesses when I was 4 years old. But for this girl, she would go all out for any kind of princesses. So yes, we got her a princess cake - 2 in fact! It was coincidental that Ting got her another one. So the jelly princess cake which Po po bought was brought to school whilst the other was left to celebrate at home. And then, there were the party packs for her friends. Every month, Isabelle would bring home party packs from her friends' birthday and it would be filled with lollies, chocolates and all other sort of unhealthy snacks. I'm sorry to say but these usually end up in the bin or given to the helper. So, I've decided to come up with something good and healthy. At first, it was just suppose to be some organic tomatoes and raisins. But somehow, I must admit, I've lost control on a buying and making spree. Hehehehe....

Not impressed with the princess cake anymore =.=| Just like the father, the birthday girl was under the weather. Probably all worn out after a long day too. |

Lai Yee bought me some very special organic tomatoes all the way from Cameron Highlands. These are really fine tomatoes and I was told, it was a special "breed". Indeed they are succulent sweet & crunchy |
