Bah Kut-ed

Dear had to work this weekend. So Renee and I got to play at Chalet 125 in the morning. Special thanks to my parents for helping.

I finally ate 陈顺美豆花 from Serangoon Garden hawker for lunch! Yummy!!!

We fetched Renee home and she played and played and played until 5pm... When We were almost packed and ready to go for dinner!

Sleep is v important... So dear endured his hunger and waited patiently for Renee to finish her nap...

6pm, we finally set off!! Changi Business Park!! For food fair at Expo? For concert at Expo? No no... It's for Soon Fa Bah Kut Teh!!

Followed by a fun supermarketing at the mega NTUC Fairprice store just next to the eatery... WuhOO!!

BTW, Renee seemed to have too much fun that she resisted sleep in the night... She only fell asleep at around 11pm... After 1hr of saga... T__T (I think she might Hav lost her voice again... After singing the dolphin scream)

Happy Good Friday!

It's 29th Mar, Good Friday 2013. Also the 148th month of dear dear and I being together...

Sis treated all of us to buffet lunch at Pan Pacific Hotel, The Edge, for about $65 per adult... (She had did it again, since her first treat at MBS The Rise which costs around $80+ per adult... 你疯了吗？)

Thanks, sis, for your generosity! WuhOO!!

In return, we decided to give her a ride to the West Mall to run an errand...followed by TOTT, a place she had always wanted to go...

Although she didn't get anything for herself from both stops... Well, Renee, myself and my Bro got something!!

A pair of Le Sucre bunnies as Wedding gift for my bro... (I know this is early but it's not easy to find)

A supersized XL LS bunny for Renee... Bigger than her!!! Renee, this is the last one for u... No more LS bunny...

Some bakery tools for myself from TOTT... Which dear kept asking "u mean we will have to eat ya cake again?" WTDoot...

Nevertheless, a happy and fruitful day for me! Muahahaha ^,^

Coconut-ed

After baking pandan cake for the second time, with better coconut milk (not coconut cream)... I googled for ways to utilize the remaining coconut milk and found the recipe for kaya...

Verdict: knowing the ingredients and steps doesn't mean we are capable of making yummy food... It also takes skills to make everything work...

Old old friends...

It's been so long since I last met up with this wonderful group of old old friends!

A casual group chat in WA wishing one of the old cows (Ermm... I meant old pal) triggered an invite for a dinner tonight!

So many backlog to catch up... Specially happy for the good news that's approaching for a pretty lady, finally!

Had some good laughs over a not-so-pleasant topic but anyway... Hope that talking abt it help this old cow heal his wound... The best I could do is to offer a listening ear...

My second visit to Prego @Fairmount. The first time to foot my own bill... Ouch! But it's worth the few hours of nice ambience with good food and great companion!

A memorable dinner when the restaurant supported the Earth hour by turning off lights and air-conditional for an hour... The place was lit by white classic candles of all sizes... Absolutely romantic!!

Renee had behaved herself pretty well most of the time and enjoyed every bit of Italiano biscuit and bread served... Love to see her smiley face (meow meow face) when she's content with the munches!!

Oops! Just realized that I didn't take too many photos of the food or the group as we were chatting away and it was pretty dark. Luckily we have a group photo from HS camera... Hohoho ^,^

Special thanks to my sis for joining and help taking care of Renee when she's bored... Wahahaha ~,~

Weekend outing!

Picnic picnic picnic... I had been bugging dear to bring us to one someday...

He bought a picnic mat and a kite couple of weeks back... But we did not go for any picnic...

This morning... Everyone woke up at 8am... It was sunny with blue sky... Almost windless and Pretty warm... Nevertheless, we grabbed the picnic mat, kite and bubble soap... Just in case!

Well, we shelved the initial idea of going to the Marina barrage due to the very warm weather... However, we dropped by the Yishun dam... @lower Seletar reservoir... There, we had our very first family picnic (without food)... Just a sit-down enjoy the no-breeze and fighting hard to open our eyes against the scorching rays...

Renee's dad was frantically running along the narrow pavement without a single soul at such weather and trying all he could to bring the kite up... Renee watched excitedly when she sat on the non-waterproof $2 mat under the bit of shade... The kite went up! Because Renee's dad is tall after all... But it came down more quickly than it went up since there's hardly any breeze... Not even the leaves were moving... Not so good day for kite flying... Haa!! Nevertheless, we had fun trying I get a bit of fresh air and outdoor tan...

Look forward to a real and pleasant family picnic soon... Pray for an excellent weather!! Cheers \(^,^)/

One little dot dot

First little mole spotted on Renee's right arm... 3/22 (Fri)

Team lunch finally

Well, don't get me wrong... Each quarter, my colleague tried their best to plan for a get together... However, it usually fell on some day when I was on leave or simply unavailable...

So, instead of attending the team bonding 4 times a year.. I barely made it once or twice annually...

The first one held this year was smooth and steady... It's a small group of us with almost 90% attendance checked! A sumptuous meal at baliThai @NEX, followed by wonderful sharing from a guest from Vienna!

It's really great to catch up with the folks to find out what's up lately!

Cheerios ^,^

有朋自远方来

不亦乐乎！

在本地的好友我约了几回；都无缘相见。有的甚至不闻不问。。。我便将所有的时间和精力都投入于家人和工作中。

不知不觉，一晃也有几年的时间都没有在周日的'放工时间'后于朋友相约畅谈近况。

昨日，我破天荒有了这么难得的机会，能够赴约，好会一会这位来自邻国的姐姐。真的是不亦乐乎呀！

我们这伙人认识了12年，每隔几年我们都会见面吃顿饭。偶尔也会在网上联系互相慰问。每次见面联络感情都会学到一些有的没的。。。啼笑皆非！

昨日金典，让这位老友用三言两语来描述到过的旅游国家。于是。。。

美国 - 「好山好水好无聊」
台湾 - 「又脏又乱又好玩」

真是个不做Sales会超浪费的爱说话女人！哈哈！有她在总不冷场。

听见大家都在事业上打拼得不错，我也为他们高兴。希望下次见面无须等上4年那么久。。。

祝大家幸福、安康！

Family Day!!

After 1 week of ICT... Dear missed her girl badly and wanted to bring her out for good food.. And get her educational toy... So we did something outside of the Sunday routine... And tried to spend some time by ourselves...

We started our beautiful Sunday with bkf at BK nearby... A staff played with Renee and gave her a tiara... !! BTW, Renee enjoyed sipping the milo from the straw...

Rested at home during the noon and Orchard-ed in the evening!! Dear finally found the toy from ToysR'Us @The Forum...

Off we went for our fabulous dinner at the P.S. cafe! The giant king prawn aglio alio was indeed gigantic... fish and chip is all time fav... we had the fudgy brownie... Which is extremely sweet and sinful... Renee enjoyed her digestive biscuit and fat fries...

Before we asked for bill, some crew came by and we saw celebrity having photoshoot outside of the cafe... we might appear on their background on next I-weeky magazine, maybe? Hahaha...
