Mummies, please read this....

Recently, while at work, I saw this:

A mummy opened up my restaurants' menu and place it on the dining table, she then place her baby (Probably between 3-6 months old) on the menu, and started to change the diaper for the baby. :O

A strange 'aroma' slowly lingers in the air, customers siting nearby started to search for this strange 'aroma'.

I'm a new mother and I think this is ridiculous. Why doesn't she go to the baby nursing room?

A restaurant is a place to dine and not a TOILET!!!

Why didn't she bring a changing mat?

Do you know that a restaurant's menu contains as much bacterial as the toilet floor?
Want to know why?

I do ask my staffs to wipe the menus on a daily basis, but please understand, during the weekends when it is so busy, we may not be able to wipe them at the end of the day. So normally on fridays & saturdays, we only wipe menus that are dirty = dirt that can be seen!!

I also seen ridiculous customers who uses the menu on the floor to stabilize a shaking table. Why don't they just ask the servers to help them.

Some toddlers like to sit on the floor to play, so some parents will open up the menu, put them on the ground and place their kids to sit on the menu to play.

These are only some cases I've seen, there are more. Children vomiting onto the menu, kid's stepping on the menu with their shoes, customers accidentally drop some food onto the menu, and much more. Sometimes, if I see customers doing that, I asked for the menu back nicely and get my staff to clean up the menu. But how about days when I'm not around?

There are also some inconsiderate customers who drop some sauce onto one of the pages in the menu, did not wipe the sauce off, but close the menu and return back to us. So when another customer request for the menu, and we passed them the dirty one. Sooo..... How would you feel?

Let's go back to the first scenario, if I did not see the mother changing diaper for the baby, and she return me the menu, and just nice, YOU asked for a menu, and I passed the menu to you... Eeww...

So after hearing this, will you still let your babies 'play' with the menu or to use the menu as a changing mat?

For me, I won't!

XOXO,
Annette

Reviews: Orbis Aqua Peeling Gel

I've never been a fan of peeling gel. I've tried a few brands before, but somehow, I don't think that it works. It's not that it doesn't clear the dead skin, but rather, I can use the peeling gel continuously 3 times on the same place and still, there are lots of dead skin. So it's either the peeling gel doesn't work or I've got too much dead skin.... I got this sample months back when I shopped at the Pop-Up store at Ion. I tot I should try this out since I've been enjoying some of their products. It's a clear gel, turns watery upon application. I like the fact that the dead skins clumps together instead of the usual when they will drop everywhere in the bathroom. I did a second 'test' right after the first usage on the same area. Guess what? Orbis Aqua Peeling Gel is really up to my expectations.... The first application had removed quite a bit of the dead skin on my hands, and during th...

Mummy And Baby: Hospital Checklist

It is never too early to prepare your bags for delivery. You wouldn't want to run around the house packing your bag after your water bag burst. It is good to make sure your hospital bag is ready at least 2 weeks before your EDD, or even earlier. And it must be place somewhere where it is easy to access in case of emergency. Make sure your family members, siblings and husband know where the bag is, so in case you really forgot, they can help you to bring over to the hospital. So what should we pack in the bag? I will list them out in 4 different parts. 1. Documentation For Admission: 1. Mother's IC 2. Admission Form For Baby's Birth Registration 1. Mother's IC 2. Father's IC 3.
