I Married My One Night Stand… Now We Have 2 Kids 😂

Kitchen Catchups

Show Notes

Welcome back to Kitchen Catchups ☕️🍴

Today I’m joined by my husband, Alfred! We’re going all the way back to how we first met, what dating was like in the early days, getting married, working together, becoming parents and what marriage actually looks like after kids.

We chat about how our relationship has changed over the years, navigating parenthood together, balancing work and family life, the things we’ve learned about each other since getting married and all the little behind-the-scenes moments you don’t usually see online.

Basically, this is a very overdue husband-and-wife catch-up about love, marriage, work, parenthood and everything that happens in between.

Grab a coffee and come hang with us 🤍

We are back for a proper catch up🤍 In this episode, we’re talking about our very different childhoods, growing up with immigrant parents, how becoming parents has changed our perspective, raising our own kids, moving from Australia to Singapore and eventually Vietnam, and what it’s really been like working together as a couple for almost a decade.

Things are getting WEIRD in the kitchen today! 😂 From the time we accidentally hired a topless cleaner (yes, really!) to creepy sleep paralysis stories, dreams that came true, manifestation and some wild conspiracy theories.
