the eat-out continues...
26 Dec
had to work after X'mas too. such booboo-ness.
Poppy said he had craving for Island Cremery (i rarely hear guys having cravings. or am i just swakoo?), so he sent us there after picking me up from office.
though the mall was really quiet, the crowd in the cremery was mad (as usual).
i wanted to try Brandied Cherries this time but they seemed to have ran out of that, so we went for Very Berry and Apple Pie. the latter was really creamy with huge chunks of strawberries whilst the former had a nice almond-ish taste together with bits of pie crusts and apple. yumz.
Poppy insisted that we head back to Tampines afterwards, then i realize my cousins and aunt have come to visit. my bro brought them out to town for movie and dinner so Poppy and i went to meet Mommy at my aunt's place for dinner instead. while Poppy and my aunts played mahjong after the meal, i dozed off on the sofa. i didn't even know when my cousins came home.
most unglam. yikes.
27 Dec
headed home in the morning after breakfast at Mommy's.
somewhat still confused on which i should type as "home". like Mommy's home is also my home, and Clementi most definitely also my home. aargh.
wrapped the pressies at the last minute, packed up a little, then lazed around a little till Yongmei & Wei came over with Clarice.
Poppy experimented with Chawanmushi-making (unfortunately, his "skills" weren't too great to boot) then we gave up and headed off to Sakae Sushi for lunch instead.
haw-haw.
more lazing around, while Clarice took her nap, then prepared to set off to Jurong to fetch Lihan for our movie, "Avatar". like many it's our second time.
i'm not really a sucker for graphics, but the storyline really attracted me.
had a brief supper with Alex and Michelle after the show, then back at home for the well-deserved rest.
28 Dec
while Poppy was away at work, i spent the rest of the time experimenting on making a photo/movie montage for our wedding. tried my hands on a new software for the first time, the effects appeared better than Movie Maker but i still can't fully grasp it at the first go.
finally decided yesterday that i should have a jab at cross-using both softwares. but first i need fresh ideas on the text and motions to use!
*paces up and down the room 1000x*
anyhoos, we grabbed a quick dinner at the neighborhood coffeeshop and caught Jay Chou's "Treasure Hunter" before meeting Alex and Michelle for supper in JB. she had a craving for Lok-Lok, and so off we went!
Poppy was exhausted by the time we arrived home near 1am. poor thing.
29 Dec
laundered our bedsheet and quilt cover, and followed on my Taiwanese drama online before Miss Teo came by for our art-and-craft session. the first after many many many manyyyyy years.
time whizzed past. we cut, pasted, got stuck sometimes, frowned and laughed it off afterwards. mighty good fun, better if we could do away with the stiff necks and backs.
cleared up the leftovers and mess, then went to pick Mary up at her office before meeting Miss L and Shanny at AMK. 'twas the long-awaited CRAB treat from Mary!
despite having made our reservations a week before, we still had to wait for our table (approx. 30 minutes) and another hour for our food to arrive. our tubby tummies rumbled as we caught whiffs of other tables' food. *gulp*.
and then, viola!
first came the deep fried buns 饅頭, then the crispy beancurd, then baby kailan 芥蘭 (almost mis-typed as a friend's name "Kai Lian". oops.), followed by chili crabs and crab bee hoon.
Miss L and i LOVE the crab bee hoon!
it's moist, and black pepper-ishly fragrant. *double slurp*.
we vant moar!
let's do it again soon, alright?
collected my share of imported accessories and bags before the girls left (yes, i spree-d again) and Poppy came by to fetch me coz he happened to be in the area.
i'm a very satisfied and happy cat this week.
