Whether you only have a few hours, or want to explore Singapore in 3 days, you can build an awesome itinerary and hit all the top things to do. Here are my must-see recommendations!
Our absolutely favorite thing this year is Zucchini Jam. If anyone has ever gifted you with Christmas Jam or Strawberry Surprise Jam you might have already tried it and not even known. See, it's made with zucchini and crushed pineapple. Then you add whatever flavor of Jello you like to stand in for the fruit. It's spectacular and such a chameleon. It tastes like the real thing... or better! Here's how I make it. Most recipes I see on line use a ton more sugar (at least six cups) and much less lemon juice (as little as 2TBL) so I think the sweetness and tartness is a matter of taste. This jam is plenty sweet enough, IMHO. Also I've seen cook times vary all the way from three hours to ten minutes. This set of times has worked great for us. Please bear in mind that we live at 6050ft above sea level and I have no idea how that effects jam. I just know that this works. Awesomely! Pick Your Flavor Zucchini Jam Ingredients: 6 cups of grated Zucchini/Courgette (peel it if you don't like the skin to show. I love the skin bits, so pretty) 1/2 cup water 4 cups sugar 3/4 cup lemon juice 1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple in juice 1 (6 ounce) box raspberry Jell-O (you can use any flavor, strawberry is AMAZING!) 1 (2 ounce) box surejell fruit pectin or equivalent - I currently use 6 TBL of a powdered pectin. Directions: 1. Place nine clean glass half-pint jars ( or 5 pint jars... or whatever you have on hand) with hot/boiling water in them on a cookie sheet in the oven at 200 degrees. Put the matching lids and rings in a pan with hot water on the stove at a simmer. Do this first as the cooking times really fly by and you want them to get good and hot! (I usually put a dishtowel under the jars so they don't slide around. Forgot this time and it was tricky to get them in and out of the oven) 2. Bring 1/2 cup water and 6 cups of zucchini to a boil thel let simmer for 6 minutes. 3. Add the sugar, lemon juice, and pineapple (juice and all) and let boil for 6 minutes. 4. Mix in the Jello and boil 2 minutes. 5. Add Surejell and boil for 1 minute. Bonus Step: I don't like texture at all. *shudder* So I use my immersion blender at this point to mulch up all the pineapple and zucchini bits. If you like 'fruit pieces' in your jam then it's great as is. I could never handle that so I blend it. The zucchini skin gives the impression of seeds, and is very pretty, but doesn't have any discernible presence in your mouth. Be sure to take appropriate safety measures when blending molten jam. Burns hurt. Note: I added the jello and Sure-Jell, blended it and then boiled it. Sort of out of order but it seemed fine. Also I got some foam... this has never happened before so I skimmed it off. 6. Turn off heat and move pot to the counter where you'll be filling the jars (easier to clean than the stove). Take the jars out of the oven and carefully pour out the water. Ladle jam into the hot jars. I leave some headroom - not sure the proper amount but I live 1/2 - 3/4 inch. 7. Wipe rims with a damp cloth, put lids and rings on to finger tight and then turn jars upside down for 5 minutes. 8. Flip them back over and keep an eye on them. Once the lids all 'pop' they're ready to store, it can take up to 24 hours. I usually refrigerate mine for a bit after a few hours so they gel up faster but I'm a little weird. NOTE: this jam looks very runny, but after cools it sets up quite firm. I know how solid your jam is can be regional thing and/or a matter of personal preference. If you want it runnier I'd skip the Sure jell. My dog loses his mind for a taste of jam and homemade bread.

Boys like bugs. This I know is true. When my oldest son was in preschool, I discovered the book Bugtown Boogie at our local library. After renewing it that first time, and checking it multiple times thereafter, I finally broke down and bought it. (I was starting to feel guilty that we were denying other kids the joy of reading this amazing book!) The story is about a boy who stumbles on a bug’s dance club. It describes a myriad of insects and how they shake it to the buggy-wuggy beat. The book’s rhyming text is lyrical and after a few readings, we started to sing the “chorus.” The book starts: I was strollin’ on home through the woods the other night, When I saw something a-flashin’ – it was shinin’ mighty bright! It was blinkin’ and a-winkin’ near the bottom of the tree, So I scurried on over just to see what I could see. To say that Warren Hanson’s masterpiece is one my most favorite children’s books is an understatement. It’s the kind of book you give as a gift, you are glad your child asks you to read over and over, and reminds you how magical the world seemed when you were young. When I pulled it out to read with this activity, my son was thrilled (he hasn't tired of this book even after two years)! We also read a great non-fiction book from The Cat in the Hat Learning Library – On Beyond Bugs by Tish Rabe. It’s cleverly written and filled with fun facts about all kinds of insects. After we’d finished reading, I gave my son a die and two pages of bug body parts. Download a 2-page PDF of bug bodies and parts here. First I had him pick the bug body of his choice, cut it out, and glue it to another piece of paper. Then he rolled the die to determine what he’d add to the picture. If he rolled a three, he could add a leg. I left it up to him whether his creation was an insect or spider (i.e. 6 or 8 legs). Every time he rolled a four, he added more spots, a two meant he had to keep building his bug’s habitat (first, he added clouds, then a tree – his bug was flying!). He used examples from the sheet I made to help him know what to draw and how many of each (the number of body parts is noted above the die on the ‘parts’ page). My son’s buggy creation may be the very first winged spider! I love his creativity!
