10 Practical Tips for Mums without Helpers

March 17, 2020 By: Mehroo2 Comments

Growing up in Mumbai in India (where labour is easily affordable), we were always surrounded by helpers. And while we had one full-time helper, we had many other part-time “specialists” who would come to perform specific duties. One would come for sweeping and mopping the floor, another to clean the bathrooms, yet another for dish-washing… {Read More}

Leaving the nest – are you ready?

June 7, 2015 By: Mehroo7 Comments

It’s 5 pm on a weekday and I am roaming around the busy street markets of Central. I still have another two hours to go before I need to pickup my younger son from his play date. I keep looking at my watch from time to time, certainly not used to having these kind of… {Read More}

From MBA to SAHM

September 11, 2014 By: Mehroocomment

I wake up this morning with a sense of purpose. ‘I have to clean out the kitchen cabinet today,’ I think out loud. Besides I have an early lunch appointment with a dear friend this afternoon so I must hurry up, I tell myself. I march out of the bedroom with a sense of purpose, all… {Read More}

A stay-at-home mum to mumtrepreneur … find your passion!

February 9, 2014 By: Mehroocomment

It’s been more than four weeks since my previous blog post and I am feeling kind of restless, as if something is missing. That feeling is instantly replaced by a sense of accomplishment once I write a post and publish it. So I ask myself, is writing my passion? Can I pursue this hobby and convert… {Read More}

I am a housewife

November 28, 2013 By: Mehroocomment

Name: Mehroo Turel Age: 38 years Occupation: Housewife I still remember my hesitation when I had to fill out the ‘Occupation’ field for a passport renewal form, two years after marriage. Housewife! How much more old fashioned and passé it could get! I tried searching for ‘Home maker’ or ‘Stay at home mum”, or ‘Family… {Read More}

ME time

June 15, 2013 By: Mehroocomment

I am so tired! I wake up early each morning, more determined than the last to finish off all my pending chores and to plan my day better so as to get some quality time for myself. My kitchen door is decorated with bits and pieces of my attempts at getting organised. The school time… {Read More}

A coffee a day

February 20, 2013 By: Mehroocomment

Coffee cures….coffee nourishes …..coffee heals…..I can’t remember exactly when I started drinking coffee on regular basis, maybe in London, that was less than 3 years ago, and now coffee has become an integral part of my day. After my morning routine of dropping off the kids to school and jogging, I look forward to to… {Read More}

Home is where the Helper is?

February 12, 2013 By: Mehroo13 Comments

“What? You don’t have a helper?”    Ever since I have moved back to Hong Kong, I have been asked this question umpteen number of times, accompanied by raised eyebrows and shocked faces. I am a stay-at-home mum, have two growing boys, a house and a husband to look after, so where is the excuse for not… {Read More}

The ‘joys’ of ironing

September 29, 2012 By: Mehroocomment

Yes I am talking about one of the most common household chore – ironing. Not that I have any childhood or adolescent memories to share on this topic as I only took up this task 5 years ago, just after we moved out of India. Living in Hong Kong, I did miss all our local… {Read More}

Leaving the corporate world – the biggest role change

September 19, 2012 By: Mehroocomment

Once upon a time I used to be a career girl. After doing my business management from a reputed institution in Mumbai, I embarked upon a new life, a life filled with strangers, strangers who later became friends, filled with meetings, felt very important sitting for my very first one, making presentations, meeting targets and… {Read More}
