My niece was the first batch to go for the National Training, and all of us was really worried at that time, as she was sent to Sabah! Luckily she enjoyed herself so much with lots of activities, and said that it ended too soon! Don't worry, they are allowed to call home during the weekends. :)<br />Your porridge looks good. I seldom cook with gingko nuts, as my kids do not like them.<br />Hope you have a lovely Sunday!kitchen flavourshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13556865191279476910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6697284035771884381.post-4114532398923956432014-04-10T12:03:52.127+08:002014-04-10T12:03:52.127+08:00Wishing your daughter all the best!

I would be kicking and screaming if my daughter had to go at such a young age. I know it is probably better in the long run for them to learn independence and the way of the world but children grow up quick enough I don't think I could be as brave as you OR your daughter:) Wishing your daughter a safe and rewarding experience:)<br /><br />You proably remember that I have never had Congee before. Nor have I ever had Ginkgo Nuts. Boy, I must live under a carpet or something. I can only know how delightful it must be to have this meal because of all the ingredients and love you have put into preparing it. Someday Ivy:) Thank you so much for sharing...enjoy your short time off:) <br /><br />~~louise~~https://www.blogger.com/profile/07335196139849995706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6697284035771884381.post-5443523719237755452014-04-08T21:44:10.531+08:002014-04-08T21:44:10.531+08:00All the best to your girl!

The one in black-T is my eldest girl and she is the one going for National Service whereas in white is my youngest girl. The rest of the girls in other pics are my girl's good friends. You are right, Elisabeth. It's a good training for youths to be independent and at the same to buildl self-confidence in them.<br /><br />Elisabeth, thank for your sweet compliments. Yes, the porridge is very refreshing and healthy at the same time. And the cake is yummy too.<br />You have a fabulous week and warmest regards, Hugs :)Ivy Sewhttp://simplybeautifulhealthyliving.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6697284035771884381.post-32066152993670342042014-04-08T14:30:36.847+08:002014-04-08T14:30:36.847+08:00Hi Inger, nice to hear that you got yourself a kit...Hi Inger, nice to hear that you got yourself a kitten as your companion.

Already told my small girl that if she is not selected (3 years time), I would apply for her even though have to pay for it! Oh, thanks for your sweet compliments, Shane. <br /><br />Re ginkgo congee, it's very refreshing and healthy too. At times I do also cook what you called Simpang Empat porridge too! Love it too especially with salted fish and salted eggs!. Give this ginkgo congee a try and I won't be surprised if you and your wife would give this 4 thumbs up!<br /><br />Till then, be seeing you after my holidays. You stay healthy and happy always :)Ivy Sewhttp://simplybeautifulhealthyliving.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com
