[thank you MOM] #LoveOverBias High Tea event

Together with Jasmine, we were invited to P&G’s annual 'Thank You, Mom' campaign for the fifth consecutive year. This is a partnership program with NTUC FairPrice, under the theme of #LoveOverBias. This event was to highlight the key roles and unconditional love/support of mothers to their children who have special needs, and on overcoming the different challenges and biases mother and child faces daily.






The event started off with a welcome speech by the special guest, Ms. Low Yen Ling, Senior Parliamentary Secretary of the Ministry of Education and Ministry of Manpower. She paid tribute to Special Olympics Singapore athletes and their mothers. 


During the event, we were treated to a sumptuous high tea at Blu Meze, Dempsey Hill. We were delighted to indulge in a special dish by Celebrity Chef Forest Leong. The Roasted Lemongrass Chicken Roulade with Mixed Mushrooms was delectable, and was easily the highlight of the day.


Apart from the special creation by Chef Leong, we also got to enjoy some other delicacies.


Sandwiches: Tuna, Chicken, Cheese


Mojo Dumplings



Spinach Pie with Phyllo Pastry



Meatballs


Dakos with Feta


Zucchini Party with Yoghurt Sauce


Assorted Scones with Marmalade Spread


Choux Puffs


Vegan Raspberry & Coconut Cheesecake with Dates and Honey


Apricot Jam Tarts


Chocolate Mousse


I took a photo with one of the participants, Joshua who has a huge passion for photography, and he took a pic of RKM using his polaroid camera.


After the high tea, the live sharing session was conducted, and I was impressed by the mothers as they put in a lot of their time and effort to give the best for their children who have special needs. I want to take this opportunity to appreciate the strength and sacrifices mothers make, as they are the heartbeat of each family. They bind the bond of the family together, and create a firm, secure foundation for growth and potential development.


The event was a success, and it culminated in a cheque presentation of SGD20,000 to Special Olympics Singapore on behalf of P&G and NTUC FairPrice.


Thanks for having us, and we were happy to be part of this meaningful event!

KUNDAL o ffers natural hair/bodycare products that have the perfect blend of plant extracts.

What I love about the  KUNDAL HONEY & MACADAMIA  range is  that they use honey and macadamia extracts as their main ingredients. They are also infused with a specific scent - such as Pink Grapefruit, White Musk or Cherry Blossom, or the most popular floral scent, Baby Powder.

Thanks for introducing COCOnCO from Korea which has helped me to achieve pleasant results from my beauty regime.   COCOnCO First Essence Toner  is a fermented facial essence, and it soothes wrinkles, tones, moisturizes and nourishes the skin, enhances blood circulation and metabolic processes at the cellular level, evens out complexion, brightens the skin, reduces the secretion of sebaceous glands and fights rashes. If you have pale, tired skin with sagging and fine lines, these can be miraculously transformed with regular use of the essence! It is suggested to be used as the first step in daily skin care. Apply it to cleansed skin first before applying the lotion, emulsion/serum and cream.  It is recommended for the product to be used twice a day - Once in the morning, and once in the evening.
