Thailand has recently proposed a bill for all ONE YEAR OLD infant to carry an ID as reported in this article here.
I think it’s insane and completely unnecessary. I would think the MPs here would have better things to do than come up with such useless policies. Where and how would a one-year old child keep the ID on him/her if ever stopped by the coppers?
If they do approve the bill, I certainly do hope it will be applicable to Thais only and that they don’t expect the foreigners to be carrying an ID for their one-year old child all the time. One wonders if the infants are also required to complete the registration-forms themselves…
So comical. Only in Thailand!

Cooking and baking are something I miss doing of late. It has been at least 2 months since I baked or experiment with new recipes to cook for dinner. Having the time to cook is such luxury nowadays. And, at the moment, I can’t really spare any time for baking as yet…which is a bummer!
With what little time I had for a home-cooked meal, I decided to whip up a Spaghetti Arrabiata with meatballs. Takes all but 20 minutes of my time. Just perfect!
Here’s the recipe, of which I have modified a little:

I have a confession to make.
I have a thing for men who carry their babies in those cool baby-carriers. Okay, well…I don’t mean the men per se. It’s not like I’m gonna stalk every men out there that fit my description and have their wives hating me for being a husband snatcher, thank you very much! But rather, I meant the image of Dads who walk around wearing their babies so proudly on their backs or attached to their chest
Me-thinks there certainly is something about that image.Very endearing. Sexy even. I truly heart the sight of men who wear their babies!
Here’s Silver Bullet wearing my
Mei-Tai; which essentially is just another type of baby-carrier. Ain’t that just the most endearing sight!
For some reason though, we managed to pull in a lot of stares and a small crowd formed (mostly females) as they intently watched us while I was helping Silver Bullet don on the Mei-Tai for Spud. As soon as Silver Bullet was done, these girls just melted away and broke a few smiles and giggles.
Ahhh! I guess my husband just became a chick magnet. 😀
