diy-tattoo-tights-stockings-tutorial | Themed Cafes in Taipei Hello Kitty Sweets

diy-tattoo-tights-stockings-tutorial

Themed Cafes seem to be in the trend in Taiwan these days. Been to two of them during my recent trip to Taipei and Hello Kitty Sweets Cafe being one of them; a must-visit if you are a Kitty fan! Or even for non Kitty fans like myself, Im sure you will find the place and foods there instagram-worthy. ; )

From far away, Mom & I quickly spotted the pink little cafe.

As we entered the cafe, we were greeted by a display of cakes & pastries.

Kitty-faced cake. *Meow*

Kitty Egg Tart.

If youre a fan and if your birthday is around the corner, come by and throw a small celebration with their mini HK whole cakes. Pretty!

On the left, the dimly lit space seems good for a first date.

Passing through to the staircase leading to the second floor, was the kitchen & service area. Pink & Kitty-fied!

On the upper floor you will find these cutesy pink bow sofa seats which are oh-so Kawaii. Space is alot brighter upstairs and better for photo-taking.

It was a weekday noon and we got there slightly earlier than lunch time, there was no waiting time... But be sure to arrive early otherwise youd have to end up queing.

After Mom & I were brought to our booth seats, we were presented with Hello Kitty menus.

A peek at the pasta selection.

Hello Kitty place mat, napkin, and coaster.

We each ordered a main course set meal. Each set meal came with a soup & bread, beverage, and a small slice of cake. Look at the Kitty-stamped bread, ha! 

My Moms Order - Beef Baked Cheesy Rice. I would give this a moderate rating as it tasted just like any other baked rice, only some extra points for the cute presentation. And in case if youre wondering what that square Kitty food is, its egg. And by the way, the egg is yummy hor. Its really soft and fragrant, kinda like the texture of an omelette. Try and youd know what I mean.

And mine - Beef Patty & Stew Rice. This is Deli! The beef meat was tender to chew and there was melted cheese in the middle of the fat & juicy looking beef patty. Definitely something I woundt mind ordering again. I finished the whole plate wo the rice and was super full. Portion size was rather generous. *burps* : O

Had a great time taking pictures, so did my Mom. Hah! : D

Say cheese...... Oh yea, by the way theres free wifi provided at the cafe.

About this.... My Mom kept asking me to take photos of the Kitty-shaped carrots. Haha.. I guess this could be a way to make your kids take their veggies?

We were entitled to one beverage for every set meal, but of course was only applicable to basic drinks that did not have any Kitty decor on them. I topped up a little for a shake with some toppings just to snap photos to show you guys.

This is what you do when you have a pretty drink - Selfie!

The basic drink vs an upgraded drink. They both tasted almost similar. Obviously you are paying more just for the toppings.

And this was the little cake that came with our set meal. Nothing fantastic. I really wanted to order at least a cake/dessert to share, so I could take photos and show you guys, but was really too full after the meal & drink. Maybe next time then. : (

Paid a visit to the washroom before heading off.

And found this pink lounge sofa in the corner.

Look at the Huge Kitty print on the mirror!

Kitty printed toilet bowl. Lol.

And even the taps were Kitty printed.
I think this is a place true heaven Hello Kitty fans. : P

Our total bill came up to approx NT$1300 (equivalent to SGD$58). It was pricey compared to local food there, but almost like those cafes in Singapore. So for a one-time visit to try out, I think its pretty worth it.

Hello Kitty Sweets Cafe is located nearest to Zhongxiao Fuxing Station (if you would like to travel by train there), and is 5-10 minutes walked away. Not difficult to locate, I merely asked for directions and we got there quickly.

Heres the address:

diy locker tattoo locker uptodown | Baby Preparation Hospital Packing List

diy locker tattoo locker uptodown

All first time parents would have surely wondered what needs to be prepared for the arrival of the little one and all mummies would have at some point asked around to find out what needs to be prepared for the D day. I guess like me, most first time moms would have gone online to Google for both the lists.

To be honest, Im a very budget type of mom who likes to prepare only the necessities. I very much dislike to have excessive number of things and end up not utilizing them; waste of money and space!

So heres a list of things to prepare for the arrival of your baby as well as a list of items to pack for your hospital stay. And as I mentioned before, my list mainly comprises only of the necessity items than the pampering/splurge items. : ) P.S. Im not saying I have only the following, surely Ive more than that cuz the rest were given as gifts, but the list are items of all you need. 

Baby Prep List:

Clothing (for me, based on washing every 3 days)

3 long sleeved tops/rompers for night use (optional since baby will be mostly swaddled, I personally only used short sleeved tops for baby)

8 simple short sleeved tops, preferable with buttons/tie-type for easy wearing (for home use; day & night)

6-8 long pants with footings, if no footings can wear socks but its more hassle (for initial months use and night use after)

5 shorts (for day use, after first month)

3-5 rompers (optional)

8 pairs of mittens

4 pairs of socks (also depends on whether you bought pants with footings)

2 hats (optional; I have many hats that came in clothing sets but so far only used once for baby full month)

1 cardigan (optional)

2-3 swaddles (I attended parentcraft course from TMC and was given 2 large swaddles, have been using these 2, super useful!)

1 bottle baby clothing detergent

1 bottle baby clothing softener

SG50 Jubilee Baby Gift Set

Includes a few sets of clothing of different sizes.

Bedding

1 Cot/playpen

1 Cot mattress

1-2 Cot mattress sheet

1 Cot mattress waterproof protector

1 Cot bumper (optional)

1 Baby pillow (optional)

1-2 Baby pillow case (only if pillow is used)

1 Cot mobile (optional)

1 bean pillow (to place on babys chest while sleeping for a sense of security)

Bath

1 bathtub

1 anti-slip mat (to attach to bottom of tub)

1 shower foam

1 shampoo (usually shower & shampoo are 2-in-1, see picture below)

1 rubber mat (to place under baby before & after bath, while dressing & undressing)

1 small pail (to wipe babys face)

3-5 small face cloths (for wiping babys face and body during bath)

3 bath towels

1 face moisturizer (I am using California Babys Calendula cream, it helped to clear my babys tiny pimples/bumps on face during first month, picture below)

1 body lotion (California Baby; purchased as a set with shower foam and face cream)

1 nappy cream (I used the one given by TMC, its really good! Heard it can be bought from pharmacy at TMC)

1 bottle Ruyi oil (must have! to rid wind!)

1 baby powder (optional to use baby powder holder & puff)

1 comb/hairbrush

1 pack of thin cotton buds (to clear babys booger aka "nose sh*t")

1 pack cotton balls (optional for cleaning babys eyes, or you can use face cloth)

1 movable 2/3-tier storage trolley (to keep all the necessities in place and organized, mines plastic and was purchased from qoo10.sg, you can also find metal ones from IKEA)

1 pack NB sized diapers (I only used one pack then moved on to S size after finishing initial pack)

1 pack wet tissue (stock up more if youd like)

1 pack dry tissues

1 bottle hand sanitizer (I bought from hospital pharmacy)

California Baby Shampoo & Body Wash - gentle & mild.

I used this cream for my girls face when she had the pimples/red bumps on her face during her first month.

This was how bad at one point the red bumps got, after using California Babys Calendula Cream the bumps all went away. Babys skin is now smooth & soft (shes 2 months+ now) ; )

Feeding

1 breast pump (for mummies who intend to breastfeed longterm)

1 pack of BM storage bags

1 cooler bag (if you pump outdoors and need a cooler bag to transport BM home)

1 box nursing pad

2-3 pairs nursing bras

2-4 nursing clothing (for convenient nursing in public)

1 nursing shawl/cover (optional)

1 nipple cream (I bought Avent nipple gel but ended up using the free one from TMC, its good)

2-4 feeding bottles 

1 extra set of teats (can prepare one size up)

1 bottle sterilizer

1 bottle warmer (optional)
1-2 pacifier (optional; I prepared a pair but only used after 2 months when I stopped breastfeeding, as a help for the transition)

1 formula container (to pack FM when heading out)

1-2 baby spoon (I used them to feed baby warm water)

1 bottle of baby accessories washing liquid

1 small shallow pail (I use the pail to collect all the bottles and wash at a go, so that the bottles do not touch the sink in case theres dirt or oil)

1 bottle brush (for washing feeding bottles)

Travel

1 stroller/pram (I have two strollers, one Combi stroller & one EasyWalker MINI Buggy. Blogged about it previously, link here: http://vannytelly.blogspot.tw/2015/10/product-review-easywalker-mini-buggy.html)

1 car seat (if driving, also blogged about it in the link above)

1 diaper bag (personally using the free bag from Nestle, picture below)

1 diaper changing mat (I find this important cuz I dont want to place my baby on the public changing station when so many other babies have laid on it before)

1 bag organizer/pouch (to stash diapers, sanitizers, wet tissue, etc)

1 wet bag (to store soiled clothing)

1 plastic bag (in case to throw dirty diapers if you do not have access to nursing rooms)

1 small fan (optional to attach to stroller)

1 baby sling (best to use sling in the initial months, can change to carrier after that. Picture of me using Baba Sling below)

(Picture taken from: https://sg.carousell.com/p/28115396/)

First time when I brought Baby Fayth out in her Baba Sling to visit her PD.

When I had to pacify her at home... solution? The Baba Sling! Haha.
(pardon me I look like a mad woman here)

First family day to the supermarket in her fav Baba Sling!

Hospital Bag Packing List:

P.S. this list of mine is based on hospital stay at TMC. Try not to bring too much things cuz you will have to carry alot of stuff home esp since its SG50, there will be lots of freebies!!

- shawl/cardigan (optional; for me I stayed in bed most times and adjusted aircon to high temp so was not that cold, but that was because I stayed in a suite so I could adjust the temp settings)

- nursing sleepwear (optional since you can wear hospital gown)

- nursing bra or any comfortable non-wired bra

- clothing to wear on discharge

- maternity pad (yes, important since you will bleed!)

- disposable cotton panties (wore this for the first month during confinement since I didnt want my nanny to wash my panties)

- personal toiletries (TMC provided basic necessities like shower foam, shampoo, and toothbrush, etc, I brought my own like facial wash and cream)

- socks (keep feet warm)

- a set of baby clothes to wear on discharge (optional since TMC provided new clothing for baby, but we brought our own since MIL says its pantang to wear passed down babys clothes so baby will be obedient)

- phone charger

- snacks (optional)

- magazines/ipad (optional entertainment. I personally did not bring any cuz I was on iphone or watched TV in my suite)

- marriage cert to make babys BC (TMc had a counter to do that so we brought our marriage cert)

- IC & admission letter

Thats about all for my list, do feel free to leave a comment below for any questions on the topic. May all expecting mummies have a smooth delivery and daddies stay loving & strong! ; )
