Tasty & Healthy Baby Food From Petit Bowl


Frozen meals from Petit Bowl in my freezer

I mentioned in my previous post about purchasing frozen baby food online from Petit Bowl and i'm so glad that baby J has been enjoying his Petit Bowl meals. I'm so happy that he has also started to enjoy eating beef which he hates in the past. The beef dishes from Petit Bowl are really delicious unlike the bottled beef baby food i fed baby J. I have been feeding baby J a lot of Petit Bowl meals while we are out visiting this Chinese New Year as it is so convenient to prepare and bring it out. 

Happy and satisfied baby J after enjoying his Petit Bowl meals :)

My baby will be 1 year old next month and he has been showing a lot of interest in the food we are having and i have been hoping to find the time to prepare more variety of food for him as he eats fish or chicken porridge with vegetables daily. However he has developed separation anxiety recently and sticks closely to me at times and refused to play on his own and i have difficulty spending too much time preparing his meals for him. I wanted to introduce other meat dishes like beef, pasta to his daily meals and I was so happy to have discovered Petit Bowl from reading past issues of Young Parents Magazines. 


Hidden Vegetable Pasta

Blueberry Yogurt

I decided to order from Petit Bowl as i love that their meals contains no salt, sugar, MSG and their delivery services have been really prompt and i usually receives my orders within 2 days of ordering online. Baby J's top favorites are their Blueberry Yogurt, Braised Beef & Barley Pot, Hidden Vegetable Pasta and Sole Fish Casserole with rice and he finishes everything up which makes his daddy and mummy very happy :) I'm so glad and thankful that my boy is a little foodie like his mummy.


Its really easy and convenient to prepare the meals and i just steam the food for about 20 minutes and add some milk or water to his casserole with rice so that its like porridge and not too dry. The meals from Petit Bowl smells really good and hubby could not resist eating some too. I have just received my 3rd order of another 2 weeks worth of meals for baby J today. However some of baby J's favorite dishes like the hidden vegetable pasta and braised beef & barley pot were sold out and hopefully there will be new stocks soon and i can order more for him.

Chinese Drama 兰陵王 Prince of Lan Ling OST - 手掌心MV (Della丁噹)


I have been watching this 2013 Chinese period drama "兰陵王 Prince of Lan Ling" and its a really entertaining and touching romance drama. I love the beautiful love story between Ariel Lin's character (Yang Xue Wu) and Feng Shao Feng (Prince Lan Ling). Daniel Chan's portrayal of Yuwen Yong, King of Northern Zhou was really good and i could not help liking his character more than the main character, the Prince of Lan Ling. He did a great job in acting out the evil and human side of Yuwen Yong making viewers fond of his character even though he is supposed to be one of the baddies in the show.



The ending theme song by Della Ding Dang is really nice and i just purchased the song from iTunes store. You can check out the song MV below and watch the drama online at (http://sugoideas.com/idol-dramas/2013drama/prince-of-lanling-蘭陵王/).
