Although Singapore’s default weather is warm and humid on most days, there’s no denying that these few weeks have been sweltering!

Both Wayne and Laurent are extremely “sensitive” to the heat and sweat very easily so whenever I propose to leave the balcony door open for some fresh air in the evenings instead of having the aircon on, I get 2 sweaty and slightly irritable boys on my hands.

“I told him there is no more popsicles.

He was the one who finished them.”

Hope you guys will enjoy the healthy fruity popsicles as much as erm… Laurent did!
