We got dolled up for the gala night of A Doll’s

We got dolled up for the gala night of A Doll’s House Part 2 by @pangdemoniumtheatre, starring the lovable legends @neosweelin and @limkaysiu, as well as the brilliant @jokukathas & captivating @rebeccaaed. 🎭.

This was a wonderful way to celebrate International Women’s Day, with a play that is as relevant today as it was when it debuted in Broadway on 2017, as it did when Henrik Ibsen wrote it in 1879…. Which means we still have a long way to go! 👊🏼

It discusses and highlights the struggles and challenges women trapped by societal expectations face and what happens when she abandons herself for her family, or vice versa as was the case for the lead character Nora.

Aaah such thought-provoking thoughts 😂 after a night out at the theatre! 🥂🧠

Also so nice to see so many familiar faces! #MattTheHubsters had to take the day off as official plus one so I could take @helcroz as my girldate. 🩷

Go watch it now before it ends 23 March at the gorgeous Victoria Theatre!

[💥SAVE THIS RECIPE💥] Diversity is the spice

[💥SAVE THIS RECIPE💥] Diversity is the spice of life. Here’s my nutritional twist on this high protein lentil dish usually served over hot rice. I top it with raw shredded cabbage, roasted cherry tomatoes, air fried broccoli and a drizzle of homemade mustard curry leaf oil (recipe coming soon). Don’t be afraid to be inclusive and mix everything all in.

This is a powerhouse dish for easing #perimenopausal symptoms and inflammation like gout. Nutritional info in comments!

Productive enough for you, Elon? 🙄

Watching the news coming out of the US lately feels like a horror movie—except it’s real, and the zombies are willingly buying into the biggest scam of the century.

It’s exhausting, but life goes on. So stay joyful, keep your humor intact, and don’t neglect your self-care—sleep, gym, nutrition, and of course, beeswax-coconut candles from @thesmittencollection.

Most importantly, don’t let this blip in history steal your peace. Lightbearers have work to do—now more than ever—to restore sanity and civility.

Stay vigilant, keep the faith, and keep shining. ✨ Meanwhile, what 5 awesome things did you accomplish last week? Let’s celebrate life with a purpose-filled #productivityreport.

Valentine’s Day is not just for celebrating roma

Valentine’s Day is not just for celebrating romantic love but for supporting your single friends too!! ♥️♥️♥️

@robhargreaves1979 I absolutely loved our heart-to-heart conversations over cocktails while devouring incredible modern middle eastern food with an Indian twist at @aniba.sg on #ValentinesDay eve. 🥰

Thanks for listening to me ramble on about both my stresses and progress with my many business endeavors under @milesnixonmedia & @thesmittencollection!! 😅

Looking forward to our next #foodieadventure together!

Meanwhile you guys need to check out this gorgeous restaurant, secretly tucked away along Bonheim Street facing the Singapore River. It is a #CherylCertified!! Look for Dinesh!! He is the sweetest! 😍

My top picks:
🔸CONE - omg the trout tartare with creamy quail’s egg yolk is so insanely amazing you will be lost for words
🔸CAULIFLOWER - so smokey and savory you will forget this crispy kale and cauliflower concoction is #vegan
🔸BEETROOT - juicy blood orange meld delightfully with earthy, sweet beetroot… so refreshing
🔸TABULEH - who cares if the fresh herbs get stuck in your teeth… this bulgur wheat, yellowtail ceviche concoction dripped with yogurt sauce will keep you coming back for more!
🔸 FISH KEBAB - charred fish paste on lemongrass sticks served with crispy makluba rice with a side of curry-tomato cream was just out of this world
🔸 CUCUMBER - i loved all the cocktails but this one was my fave!

Be sure to come hungry and leave space for dessert!! So many tantalizing dishes on the menu to tempt you with i wish I could list them all! 😝

BONUS: This restaurant is perfect for vegan/#vegetarian and #pescatarian friends!!!!

Marry the man who gives you a diamond cross ✝️

Marry the man who gives you a diamond cross ✝️ for #valentinesday instead of sexy lingerie!!👙Because when someone is attracted to your soul rather than your physical appearance, you know he’s a keeper!

Also did you know that St Valentine is the patron saint of marriage, love and bees 🐝 (how apt because @thesmittencollection uses beeswax in our candles!)? #stvalentinesday #stvalentine

So don’t fret if you are single today or bemoaning a recent breakup. Today is a celebration of love - NOT loss - and of all the possibilities that lie ahead. And as long as you remember that, you’ll find that person who is perfect for you. Take it from this old bride!

Today also marks not just our 8th #valentines together but the anniversary of hard-launching #MattTheHubsters, then just a shy boy i met on a dating app 4 months before. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 He finally became #socialmediaofficial!

Swipe ⬅️ to see us then at a fancy restaurant at our first Valentine’s Day in 2017 vs now celebrating on our couch - our fave place. 🥰 #throwback #thenandnow

Happy Valentine’s Day, lovers! 🌹♥️💋

“I am big. It’s the pictures that got small.” ~ Norma Desmond, Sunset Boulevard 🎥🎬⭐️

This award-winning musical was a magical experience for me for three reasons:
✨ it marks Sarah Brightman’s triumphant return to the stage after 30 years— i have loved her since she first played Christine in Phantom of the Opera!
🎶 The lush, cinematic score by Andrew Lloyd Webber is always such a joy to the ear & the soul… lyrically my fave was “Eternal Youth is Worth a Little Suffering” 🤣
✨it’s a reminder of the dangers of living in the past and how important it is when faced with change to find new paths and “New Ways To Dream”. Constant reinvention and transformation have been how i have survived the entertainment & media industry & this production really hit home as I embrace my own evolution before i turn the #big50!

Based on the classic 1950 film, Sunset Boulevard tells the haunting story of a faded silent movie star clinging to the dream of a comeback & how her delusion results in heart wrenching tragedy!

The lavish set, delightful choreography, flawless singing, dapper costumes & the use of multi-media really transport you to the glory days of 1950s Hollywood. The cherry on top is always bumping into familiar faces who still greet me with warmth. ♥️

An absolutely unforgettable night at the theatre with my #girldate @pamelapung. Catch it before it ends 23 February at Sands Theatre!! You really can’t miss Sarah Brightman! 🤩🤩🤩

[💥SAVE THIS RECIPE💥] Steak Stroganoff Pasta 🥩🍝is my one-pot take on this Russian dish made popular in the US in the 1930s. I keep it traditional with a few twists.

First run in 4 years… and it felt like freedom.

First run in 4 years… and it felt like freedom. 🏃‍♀️✨ I wasn’t fast, and I wasn’t trying to be.

I walked, I ran, and I took it all in—nature, the breeze, and even a little wildlife moment with a random rooster and later, a mother hen crossing the road. 🐓🐣😂

Sometimes, returning to something you once loved—but stopped due to injury or fear—isn’t about proving anything to anyone. It’s about reclaiming a part of yourself.

Here’s to every opportunity we have to begin again… even when it’s not for the first time. 💛

[💥SAVE THIS RECIPE💥] Inspired by Vietnamese

[💥SAVE THIS RECIPE💥] Inspired by Vietnamese Grilled Fish (Cha Ca), this easy airfryer version is made in just 10 minutes & is packed with flavour. The portion below feeds 4-6. #foodforthought

FOR THE FISH
about 800g red snapper/threadfin fish, or 6 fillets
few dashes of rice vinegar
2 tsp turmeric powder
1 tsp salt, or as desired
1 tsp dried dill
1 tsp each ginger, garlic and onion powder
1 tsp ground lemongrass
½ teaspoon white pepper
½ teaspoon black pepper
small drizzle of olive oil

GARNISH
10 spring onions, cut into 2-inch long pieces
1 bunch of coriander
mint leaves
fresh dill
salted peanuts, crushed

SERVE WITH:
2-3 tablespoons of sauerkraut
Brown rice
raw carrots, cherry tomatoes & arugula (or other vegetables of choice)
a dash or two of fish sauce, if desired

INSTRUCTIONS:
Pat each piece of fish with paper towels to remove any moisture. Sprinkle a few dashes of rice vinegar & some salt. In a small dish, spoon out all the seasonings, stir & then coat each fish with the mixture. Drizzle some olive oil (please refrain from using peanut, canola or vegetable oil as these are highly inflammatory. I only use olive, avocado & coconut oil for cooking). Airfry for 6min at 205ºC/400ºF skin side up, flip over & airfry for an additional 4 min. Serve with sauerkraut, brown rice, spring onions, coriander, peanuts & a side of raw vegetables.
