Sweet Home Affairs

I don't know how to describe the kind of satisfaction I get when I successfully bake for my loves. And when they compliment that it was yummy. Now I understand why baking or even cooking are addictive for some!

FANS!

 this week we replaced two fans.. after moving in for 2-3 years into our love nest, we threw away total of 3 fans? sounds like a waste of money. 1 fan each year. Finally we concluded that. we shall only buy KDK (the best brand for fans) or second best if we must. Cheap fans cannot last long! 
First, we change to a wall fan for our room. Save space and thus neater, most importantly, the fan is powerful.
Secondly we changed our fan in the study room. Okay the fan we previously had ain't  faulty, and it ain't cheap either! cost us almost $200, but because it was a low fan and it takes up some much space in our tiny room. soooo, now we changed to ceiling fan instead. Yeah! i find it so much pretty now. don't you think so?? 
 I realized how observant Kieran can be, he stepped into the study room and he looked up the ceiling, stared for awhile and point it to me saying,"eh!" he know it's newly installed! 

It feels good and warm whenever we revamp our love nest. Love the feeling.
