Bf with granny at Tanglin Halt FC. Specially brought her here for the raw sliced fish but it's already sold out. Can see her disappointment in her eyes. In the end, she only shared a bowl of porridge with Aunt.


Mixed Pork Porridge. Their fried pig intestines are crispy and very tasty. Not many places served this.



Next we went to Sitex Computer Fair at Expo. Choosed between HP, Epson and Canon printer and in the end bought a Epson all in one printer, scanner and copier. Quite a good deal cause the package include another set of ink amounting to $100+. Was quite tempted to buy a Video Player which can play RMVB and Real format (the most popular format for China and and HK website) for Mil but was quite worried that she might not know how to operate and so in the end shelf of the ideal.



Lunch at Fengshan FC located at Bedok.

Beef Noodle
Handmade Beef Ball


Dumpling with minced meat noodle

Ah Balling


Finally bought a washing machine at Audio House (Electrolux Front Load 8 kg). Quite a good buy as the orginal price was $1300+ but we got to trade in our old washer and in the end only paid $1k. Hope it's a good buy as we heard that Electrolux is quite a reputable brand.

Walked to Boat Quay to buy the Rat a Tat Cat from Minds Cafe. Very tired after shopping the whole day and was quite temperimental. Everyone seems to get into my way. Feel so bad after that.

Dinner with Karin and Ken at Novena famous chicken rice. The place was super packed and the food sucks. Kids stayed overnight at Karin's place as she's bringing them to Downtown East tmr.


Christmas Tree again. This one look so funny.

Videl with her new spectacle. She look cuter in it right? & she look more like small Raymond now.



Kids went for their piano lesson while we went searching for washing machine at Jurong Pt. It's really time to change a new washing machine as our current washing machine is making our clothes dirty instead of cleaning them. Very confused with the many brands in the market and also not very sure whether to buy Top load or Front load. Having mix reviews on these 2 types. All I need is just 1 that can wash clothes but Kennie very mai fan, always want branded stuff.

Dinner at Cheong Chin Nam (Opposite Beauty World Bukit Timah). There's a OldTown white coffee, which is the same as one at Big Splash. Not sure if it's also owned by Mark Lee. anyway, the food here is not as good as Big Splash's.




Their signature dish. Nasi Lemak. Their rice is just like plain rice. So u know how good it is lah.

Curry Chicken Mee. I ordered wrongly. Actually wanted to try their Assam Mee.

Ipoh Hor Fun. Pathetic serving. A bit of Hor Fun with a few slices of chicken only.

Another of their signature dish. Ice Fire Polo Bun. Why ice? Why fire? Well, the fire is representing the hot polo bun, and the ice represents the freezing cold thick layer of milky butter. It's a perfect combination.

Fetched the kids back from school after their camping. They looked so shack and dirty. Was horrific when the kids told us that there are bedbugs at the bunk area. So we faster went back to wash their clothes and sun their bag, sleeping bag etc or risk getting the whole house infected with bedbugs.

Lunch at Bt Timah FC again. Nothing much for the afternoon, just slack at home.


Fried Spaghetti in olive oil with mushroom and bacon. First time trying the dried version spaghetti. Thumbs up.


Fried Kway Teow with cockles. My version: Less dark sauce more chilli cause I don't like it to be sweet as it can really spoil my appetite.

Dinner with Mum and Sis at the Steamboat shop at Jalan Besar. The food will be served to us unlike those that we take ourselves from the buffet counter. It's quite budget as it's less than $20 and beside the normal steamboat food, there are cooked stuff like their signature fried chicken wings, stir fried chicken and beef, and muai chee for dessert. It's always good to dine with Sis cause they are always the one footing the bill. Hehe.

Kids were at the Girls Brigade camping since Fri and will only be back on Sun. Miss miss them but Kennie and I got to have some personal time together. Brunch at Chatterbox Meritus Mandarin. Really very expensive as a set of chicken rice cost around $30. Not expensive for a meal but expensive for chicken rice. Lucky thing there's a 1 for 1 promotion using the coupon from some woman's magazine. Or I don't think we would ever have the chance to eat there. Anyway, it's really not worth the price and imo, the chicken rice at Margaret Drive definitely tasted better. Don't think we will have patronise them again.




Went shopping for Christmas present at Orchard and Taka. Ended buying nothing as we couldn't find anything to our liking.

Dinner at Purvis Street. Another Hock Lam Beef Noodle Stall? So which is the original one? Anyway this stall is nothing comparable to the stall at China Sq. It's ex, portion is small and the meat is super hard and it's operated by M.I.C.


We went to look for the kids at the camping site as there's a campfire tonight and all parents were invited. A lucky thing that we took Karin's car there as the whole stretch of road is covered by potholes. It would definitely be an obstacle for my car to drive past all the potholes.

We were quite disappointed with the security as there's no one manning the gate. Any tom, dick can just come in. Imagine MSK or any bad guys coming in to do some bad things.

The kids were all sweat and sticky and had just taken their dinner(maggi mee). Beside the kids from GB and BB from GRPS, there are also Sec students from Outram Sec Sch. They act as mentors to the Pri students.

Usual stuff for campfire, singing, dancing and performance by the kids. Definitely not enjoyable for the adults but our main motive is to look for the kids and keep them Co.

Time to bid the kids farewell. Bye Bye Bao Bei. See you all tmr.
