A baby-boomer and SAHM from sunny Malaysia, I'm the proud mother of 2 very active boys. I love John Steinbeck, ramen and am terrified of mice, hence the blog title! I find blogging therapeutic; it allows me to express my thoughts (no matter how dark or silly) and connect with bloggers across the world. My blog is a mixed bag of random thoughts, muses, gripes, quotes, interesting finds, handy housekeeping tips, food, etc . A dabbler of sorts, my latest obsession is participating in paid surveys. Do visit my other blog at http://surveyscroll.blogspot.com/ Welcome to my world!

These photos were taken at the beach near my in-laws' place. Pantai Bersih in Malay translates as 'clean beach' but the beach hardly lives up to its name!
It's not exactly the kinda beach you wanna take a dip in - the water is icky, mushy and smelly, caused by the mudflats that are exposed at low tide.
Itty-bitty crabs emerge from their muddy burrows to forage and court when the tide goes out
There is one spectacle grander than the sea, that is the sky; there is one spectacle grander than the sky, that is the interior of the soul.
