New Year. New Resolutions.

The New Year spells the need for new resolutions.
A gentle reminder for myself to work towards fulfilling them all, like I did for last year!


1. A trip to Seoul, Korea
Unfortunately, I'll be missing the chance to join Shan in February.
Because it's my first official lunar new year as the "Missus", Poppy thinks it's a bad idea to be travelling during the festive. A little disappointed, but I love CNY too much to miss it anyway.

So hopefully, I'll have a chance to bring Mommy there in Spring or Autumn in 2011!
Also, my annual target of 4 trips per year, as with previous years, may be reduced it to just 2 or 3, if I do get to go for a long one in Korea.


2. A new member in the home
After rounds of discussion (...and disagreement) since the wedding. We have finally concluded that, yes, we should have a new member in the house. Of coz, we're gonna let nature take it's course and nothing much's being done yet since we've got conflicting schedules for most parts, so hopefully the new year will be kinder on us and grant more time to fulfill our parental duties.

Lemming to go for a month or two of long leave to rest up and Poppy seems agreeable on that. Hee. And yes, we think it'll be nice to have another kitty at home too =))


3. More, more, more Moolah
As with every other year, this item is a permanent resident on my list.
Definitely not one to pray for striking lottery, simply by my own hard work, I want to set and attain a reasonable amount to save in the new year. Only starting to grow my savings back since the wedding-and-honeymoon, so extra efforts are in order for 2011!


Now that you've seen mine, what's your resolution(s) for the new year?

New Year. New Hair.

I want a new style for new year!

Love the current length, which is easy to manage, but it's getting a little untidy although I've already trimmed it once in October. Told Shan and Mich sometime back that I'm lemming to perm it again, but very much afraid I will look auntie-ish. Mich is totally regretting her cut and is against my idea, of coz.

Anyhoos, here's a couple of ideas I got online...

About the same as my current length. A little unkempt but more natural.
Suits my lazy a$$ best =D

Slightly shorter and neater. I gather much effort has to be put it to keep it this tidy.

About the same as current length too (after perm). Tighter curls and cuter.
Would look pretty when tied up too, I think!

Shucks. I need suggestions.

New Year. New Resolutions. - The Review

A review on the resolutions I made at the beginning of 2010:

1. cut down on sprees
relatively hard now that i've found my way to buy stuff not just from US, UK but also Korea at the comfort of my home. ok, skip this.

Check. I still make one or two bulk purchases once in a while *sheepish*, but definitely not as much as I did in the first half of the year.


1. continue to buck up on my exercise regime
2009 was a good start.
now that i've moved in with Poppy, let's hope he''ll continue to keep me motivated


Check. Back on the exercise routine. With a little objective of completing a half-marathon under 2 hours, hopefully it'll keep me going on in the months to come.


2. i will attempt (at least a little) DIY for my wedding
i resolve to add some personal touches (or at the least attempt to do so).
on side note, i was (or still am?) infamously known in the family for my 三分钟热度 lit. short-lived enthusiasm. i need some whipping from my bridesmaids.

Zilch. Turns out the wedding was too big an affair for me to handle myself. Glad things turned out ok afterwards, anyway.


3. increase my moolah
alright, i figured i probably won't be able to save much because of my terrible shopping habits. since i can't save more, i shall earn more then! more OT!

Check. Fairly successful, I gather. Despite the huge drain on my bank accounts in 2009/2010 due to the wedding and honeymoon, still managed to meet my target for 2010, recover my losses and start growing my savings again.

PS: Eating out much more than before this year, and that's burning a considerable hole in my pocket. Baaaadd.


Feeling a little itchy though, from our abstinence from traveling abroad.
Still, we got to visit Bangkok in January, USA for 2 weeks in July, Hong Kong in September and random Malaysia trips (just one more trip and I would've met my once-a-quarter trip objective too. I'm just greedy.)

Just 5 more days to a brand new year. New resolutions are in order!

Week 51

The past weeks have been work, work.. and a lot of work.

17.12.10 Friday
We did manage to visit Megatex at Singapore Expo, after my night shift, and we finally bought Poppy his Dyson vacuum. Had steamboat buffet for dinner at Sunset, just by ourselves the same evening, and visited Alex at his place to collect his early X'mas pressie for us - a set of Pioneer Home Theatre System. Yays.


18.12.10 Saturday
Went to fetch Loh Wei in the afternoon, and met up with Derrick and his wife at Ubi. Then we headed off to meet Foong for lunchie and their "fishy" business. Of coz, I took the opportunity to grab some cakes from Pine Garden! Yummo!

The boys moved all the equipment and tank to our place, set up, chit chat, snacked, finished up and another of his colleague, Stanley, came by to join for dinner. Much as anyone can guess, Poppy introduced them to his fave 咸蛋排骨 at Sunset.


Work, work over the next few days with random visits to the aquarium and our regular jogs.


22.12.10 Wednesday
Finally off!
Took my well-deserved sleep after work.

Since Poppy wasn't hungry when I woke up in the evening, we went for a jog together before washing up and having our dinner at Sakae sushi at City Vibes (at almost 9pm). Dropped by aquarium again, then went home to fix up my own feesh-tank. Took a short drive out to West Coast park afterwards and back home again to continue fixing feesh-tank. Sheesh.

PS: Poppy was a sweetie and bought me some more Pine Garden cakes when he was in the area a few days back!


23.12.10 Thursday
JB day.
Terrible traffic jam. Only managed to reach Jusco after an hour of being stuck in the traffic.
Can't remember if we had lunch or we headed straight for KTV. Only recall having noodles at Ah Biao's before engaging in another hour of jam or so. Blah.

Met Vincent for snackie and popped by his place to see his or-gui (tortoise) and new tank.
Poppy had to work the next day, so we headed home shortly after.


24.12.10 Friday
Off to Changi for some business in the morning. Then caught up with Shan over lunchie. It's been such a long long time since I last saw her! We always have endless to talk about! =)
Brief shopping at City Plaza after Mee-hoon Kuey meal. Then we headed home separately.

Poppy returned home after attending his colleague's funeral, then we slacked around at home for a bit. Before deciding to have a light dinner - our fave Teochew Porridge at Lim Joo Hin Eating H ouse off Beo Crescent. Turned out to be not-so-light for me after I devoured two bowls of porridge together with a plate of bak chor (minced meat); sweet and sour pork ribs; tow pok (dried beancurd); and half a salted egg. Poppy strictly adhered to just a bowl of porridge, but had to help me finish a few mouthfuls after I was thoroughly stuffed. Hehe.

Bored as we were. We agreed to go to Sea View aquarium in Jalan Kayu to take a look. Picked up Foong on the way too. Browsed and bought some miscellaneous items. Sent Foong home, then off to meet Khiam at Dempsey for ice cream at Ben & Jerry's (with compliments from my dear brother)!

Chitter-chatter for a bit, and off home again.
On the drive home, told Poppy that all I want for X'mas-es, New Years or Valentine's... is to have a simple meal, go watch feesh (although it's not really my kinda hobby, but it's nice to understand what Poppy enjoys doing and we can have a common topic) and have a peaceful day. =))


25.12.10 Saturday
So here it was, X'mas day - just like any other days. No special celebration and no church visit this time 'round since I'm working in the evening.

Got up around 10, prepared and drove over to Alex's. Poppy went for his swim with Khiam and I went for my jog in the gym. Off to West Coast for yummy duck rice after washing-up. Grabbed some groceries at Sheng Siong afterwards because Poppy was in the mood (again) for making Ngoh Hiang.

So while I was taking my pre-work nap, the fragrance from his cooking filled the whole house and Custard was making funny hungry sounds. Ok, maybe she's just pissed that she has to stay in the cage while Poppy mopped the floor and cleaned up the kitchen after cooking. Packed some of the yummo meat rolls together with my pasta, fruits and pastries, then Poppy sent me to work.

That marks the end of my monotonous festive.

Well, I was supposed to have prepared a pressie for Poppy but there was a little crop-up.
Anyway, I really racked my brains X 1000 to think of a suitable and practical gift since we already got the Dyson vacuum earlier last week.

Ruled out:
(1) adidas miCoach since I managed to find a pretty useful (but slightly cranky) Runkeeper App available for both iPhone and Android OS (for free!);
(2) Bicycle - As someone who doesn't cycle, I've got no clue what brand/type he would prefer
(3) iPhone 4. Apparently, he's not very tech-savvy and I have to jailbreak/restore/manage his current iPhone 3GS. Can't imagine what I have to do if he gets iPhone 4 in his hands. Brrr.
(4) iPad. Same as point 3. Plus it's redundant have 2 Apple OS gadgets.. might as well get Galaxy Tab, but he probably doesn't need either.
(5) Definitely, not a watch because he only wore the last cK watch I got for him less than twice! Bad Poppy!

Shit. What's left?
He's always been really thrifty and never indulged much in his hobbies, especially if they're expensive. So finally decided to get him...

A picture to make up it first (only if he reads this in time). Hee.

Did some comparison against the D90 also from Nikon & EOS50D / 40D from Canon. And still prefer Nikon. I'm just biased. Ha!

Hopefully, things iron out and I can get my hands on this baby during my sole off day next week.
S$6K poorer by then, but worth every cent =)

December 12, 2010

Week 49

02.12.10 Thursday
Met Poppy at Jurong Point after work, bought a cake for LiHan from Icing Room.
Pity Mingkai couldn't make it at the last minute, so we decided to meet at Vivocity instead. Had our dinners at Marché, then off to Coffeebean to cut the cake and have a cuppa.

Coffee & Cream. Yum.

Headed home after sending LiHan home.
Long day ahead.


03.12.10 Friday
Set off for company's D&D at Klapsons in Tanjong Pagar. Ultra tired, especially after an entire day's work.
There were giveaways including a pair of air tickets, a Royal Caribbean cruise and about 10 iPads but I only managed to win myself vouchers (AGAIN). Ok, at least it's better than Eric's prize (last year) of rice cooker. LOL.

Part of the team during the D&D


04.12.10 Saturday
Collected my parcel from the post office, had breakfast at the central, then grocery shopping at NTUC in the morning. Fetched Kenn and his family, then headed to Turf City to see cars again. Spent half the day there and he decided on a Lancer Ex in black. We then rushed off for Gong Gong's birthday dinner with the rest of the family at Bukit Timah. They were almost finished and we went to clear the leftovers. Haha.

Sent Godmum and her family home, then we stopped by Ochado in Chong Pang. My brother recommended me to this brand, but it's oh-so-faraway so I've never tried it till today. Poppy got his usual Hazelnut Milk Tea but with Coffee Jelly and I got the Roasted Tea with Azuki Beans and Pearls. He's was just ok but mine was really good. Price is about the same as Koi, but pity it's simply too far away for me though.


05.12.10 Sunday
Had our late breakfasts at MacDonald's, West Coast. Went for a stroll in the park afterwards, and since we had no program so we headed home. We were feeling game for some badminton, but all the courts in the sports complexes nearby were all fully booked, so we called up Kenn and met at his house to play instead.

Worked up a good amount of sweat, showered quickly and met Alex & Mich at their place. Then all 6 of us were off to Nex! Darned crowded. All we could see were many heads. =S
Anyhoos, we had some sweets and headed off for dinner at Foodpark, Sunset.

Home to Zzz after dindin.


Work as usual on Monday and Tuesday. And it's my turn for night shift for the rest of the month. Boring.
It's high time for a job switch, I think. Sigh.


08.12.10 Wednesday
Home to sleep in the morning after work. Poppy came home in the evening and we were off to JB for dindin at Taman Sentosa. Returned home and popped by Bengawan Solo to buy some snacks (because of night shift, I become extremely hungry at night).

Attempted to sleep but ended up watching HK Drama and forcing myself to bed at 3am. Then woke up at 8am when Poppy prepared to go to work. Night shifts sucks balls.


09.12.10 Thursday
Random nothingness throughout the day. Took my nap then met sis-in-law to go to Sunset together for FIL's birthday dinner. Stopped by Balmoral Bakery, as recommended by Lady Iron Chef, to grab some confectionery. Pity, the custard buns were already sold out. Almost bought the entire shop home but decided to just buy enough for the next day's breakfast.

2 X Napoleons (mille feuille), cake with cream centre, cream horn, curry puff (not in picture)

Dinner was humdrum, considering we've eaten at the same place for like 4 - 5 times in the past few weeks. Every dish on the table was ok, until MIL decided to order crabs. Yucks. Cooked crab swimming in diluted sweet-and-sour chili sauce. Bad choice.

Poppy sent them all home afterwards, and I took a walk back home via my favorite scenic route.


10.12.10 Friday
Slept late in the wee hours again. Then went to Peace Centre in the afternoon before heading to Raffles City shopping centre to do some x'mas shopping. Bought many much snacks (Yum!) - Honey Roasted Whiltshire Ham Crisps, 3 X Fruits Jelly Puffs and an assortment of cookies and chocolates. *drool*

Walked over to Suntec City to meet Poppy for dindin. Had a Salmon with Soba set meal and skipped dessert coz we'll be having popcorn and nachos later. Browsing in Carrefour for a bit then got to the cinema for Narnia 3.

I never watched Part 1 and 2 of this movie, and after the show it's not difficult to figure out why I never caught the prequels. Guess I probably didn't miss much anyway.


Anyway, we headed home straight after the movie since Poppy's working the next day and needed to rest early.
And I managed to get myself to sleep by 1am too.

Haven't gotten my dose of jog/run or any exercise the whole week. Feeling awkward all over. Not like night shifts at all =(

December 02, 2010

Week 48

27.11.10 Saturday
Work as usual. Met Alex & Mich after work, fetched Kenn & Lynn and headed off to JB. Had Bah Kut Teh at a random shop because 2 of our favorites were both closed. Drove back to Taman Sentosa after dinner for a car wash, then supper of Lok-Lok and Ice-Jelly. Noms. We ate SOOO much within the span of a few hours.
'twas almost 2am by the time we sent Kenn & Lynn back, and got home ourselves.


28.11.10 Sunday
Supposed to get up early for our jog, but we were too tired from the late night before. We did manage to grab ourselves brekkie at MacDonald's though. Then we drove over to 舅舅's place to visit Popo & Gong Gong. Stayed there through to the evening, sent them home and headed home for our evening jog.

Alex called up and asked if we wanted to meet for dinner. So off we went to Causeway Point for Ichiban Sushi. Still the same long queue even at the other end of the island. They ran out of the custard roll, so we had dessert at Swensen's instead. Ate super full (AGAIN).
All that run gone to waste. Tsk Tsk.
Home, wash-up and Zzz.


Monday & Tuesday was just work, work and work. Our new shoe cabinet has arrived and we don't have to stack our footwear like a mountain beneath the window anymore. And my Forever21 shipment is also delivered. Yippee X 2!


01.12.10 Wednesday
Wednesday was my sleep day. Slept till noon, woke up for some cereals and a variety show, then back to sleep again till 6pm, when Bro knocked on my door. He brought me many Ben & Jerry's vouchers. Yay.
Poppy came home slightly after 6pm then it was dinner time!
Had Salted Egg Pork Ribs again at Foodpark in Sunset. Friendly to our taste-buds and pockets. We like!

Sent Bro back to hall, headed home to wash up, then Poppy said to meet Mingkai at Botak Jones downstairs.
Random chit-chat over a drink. And I finally realize who was Poppy's Ping-Pong kaki. It's so out of this world, I thought only my dad plays Ping-Pong. LOL.

Anyhoos, decided we'll meet again this evening for LiHan's belated birthday dinner.
Then there's the company D&D at Klapsons tomorrow evening.


So sleepsie. 1 off-day is barely enough for me to sleep. Wish I don't have to work tomorrow.
Oh well...

November 26, 2010

Random

An entire day of nua-ness at home.

Woke up at 5am, thinking it's time to go work, only to realize it's my off day.
Played Angry Birds on my phone till Poppy came home from work around 7am.

Slept all the way till noon, got up to do laundry and fix Custard's meal of boiled chicken fillet.
Back to nua again before heading off to Jurong East.
Had my first (and only) meal of the day, loitered around a bit and finally bought our new shoe rack. Yay.

Headed home, changed and had our jog to Sunset and back. Washed up and ready to sleep now.

Bye bye lazy Friday off.
Back to work tomorrow.

Fruitful Week.

2010.11.09 Tuesday
My shipment from Korea finally arrived.
Fixed up Custard's new scratch post and she totally digs it!



2010.11.12 Friday
Audris choped me today for a girls' afternoon.
Met her at the MRT station, bought our lunches and headed home to play with Custard.


Had dinner at Neo Garden Restaurant with the rest after stopping by BBDC to book my Final Theory Test. Ah yes, passed my BTT just the day before, on 11 November. Went home to book the test online only to realize I've insufficient credits. Bummer.

The guys had their dose of billiard at West Coast Recreation Centre and we headed home separately.

******

Can't really remember what happened for the rest of the week.
But I did bring Custard to the vet on Saturday to get her eye checked. Fortunately, nothing serious. I did get seriously traumatized by a Golden Retriever at the clinic though =S

The other worth mentioning is visiting Victor's Kitchen for Dim Sum (which I will elaborate later). Checked out a couple of condominiums over that weekend too. One was too pricey, the other has no suitable units left. Blah.

The rest are most likely something unexciting and monotonous.

******

2010.11.17 Wednesday
Slept in till the afternoon coz we were off to JB the previous late night.
Prepared to work on our Home Improvement Program (HIP).

Performed a 乾坤大挪移 and shifted our TV plus console to another side of the door. Of course, we had to move the sofa as well, together with the bench and coffee table. Derrick & Leah came by to pass Poppy the cutter and Yao-Yao helped out with the trunking.

Shoo-ed them off for their appointment then finished up the touch-ups and cleaning.
By then we were famished! Only had some home-cooked pasta since morning =( Met up with Alex & Mich for din-din at Ikea, then browsed for shoe cabinets. No luck though.

Alex wanted to come by and 參觀 our new setting. LOL.
So we popped by Fong Seng Nasi Lemak, near bro's school, to grab a dozen of wings before heading home. By our 3rd wing, we were stuffed to the brim. *burpppp*


2010.11.19 Friday
Again, we got up pretty late.
Couldn't decide on where to eat, so we walked over to the newly re-opened Clementi Market & Food Centre. Poppy got his fix of Chee Cheong Fun and I had economical rice. Then it was KTV time! It's been quite a while huh.

Caught up with Loh Wei and Baby Clarice for dinner in Jurong afterwards.
Then set off to meet Derrick and Leah at Sunset Grill.

Wings, nachos, beers and ribs

The deep-fried wings were pretty disappointing, nachos was good for me but Poppy felt otherwise.
Chillax a little over some beer, then we drove by Derrick's soon-to-be-ready flat in Sengkang.
'twas almost 11 by then. took a slow drive back home via Serangoon.


2010.11.20 Saturday
Had to wake up early coz we promised to send MIL and aunt to the airport for their flight to KL. Turned out we had to fetch all 3 aunts, so Popo & Gong Gong had to wait for us a bit. Grabbed breakfast at Mac then they proceeded to check-in. And it started to pour. We were totally caught off our guards and without brollies. Ran all the way to the carpark and one side of my slippers flew off. Nenepok. Anyhoos, we still went over to the Expo to collect our SCMS Race Pack amid the rain.

Dropped by Mommy's for a chat and since Poppy's been lemming to try out the Honda Airwave and check out the prices, we drove over to Turf City's car dealers for a look. Then stopped for a bit at Autobacs as well.

Since Alex (Hong) was still in JB fixing his car, so we called the other Alex (Ong). LOL. Met him, Penelope and their 2 chubby tubbies for dinner at ABC Market. My fave Koo Kee Yong Tau Foo was replaced by another stall. Sian. Ordered Kuey Chap instead. Had an additional serving of Rojak to share as well. Noms.

The bubbies had to take their milk, so the pair hurried back home.
So we did too.


2010.11.21 Sunday
Much awaited Sunday is finally here!
Alex & Mich parked their car at our place and we took Poppy's ride to town. The place was packed as usual. Yes, it's none other than Victor's Kitchen at Sunshine Plaza.

Since our trip here last week, I've found the closest competitor to Hong Kong's dim sum. Love (X 1000) their Egg Yolk Lava Bun (流沙包). We agreed it's not as good as HK's but close enough than most others.

We ordered another handful of munchies including the Siew Mai; Quail Egg Siew Mai; Glutinous Rice wrapped in Lotus Leaf; Chicken Roll; Beancurd Roll; and Mango Pomelo Sago (dessert) and Summer Ice Tea (beverage).

SO DAMNED GOOD.

Hot Favorite - Lava Bun


Siew Mai


Summer Ice Tea
(Sitting in an ice-bowl)


Mango Pomelo Sago
(almost as good as Ah Chew's!)

*slurp slurp*

Satiated, we went over to Tang's to collect my 3rd & 4th hamper from Clarins. Gave Mich one of them coz I simply have to many already. And I don't dare to play the game anymore or else Poppy will chop my head off the next time I ask him to send me there to pick up another hamper =S

We then jalan-ed in FEP for a bit. Bought a pair of sandals to replace my fly-away slippers. And another pair of shorts - matchie matchie with Mich. We have identical shoes, skirt, dress and now, a pair of shorts as well. Must make sure we don't end up wearing them on the same day.

The boys were mad bored by then, so we took off and headed back to Sunset Grill.
Had the Cheesie Fries and Buffalo Wings this time 'round... but being scaredy cats, we tried the Level 1 only.

Forgot to take picture, so here's one from Mich

Not bad. We will be back for an upgrade soon.

Took off quickly coz we were surrounded by flies and all sorts of insects.
Left for Sungei Kadut. Alex wanted to check out the side-tables and we wanted to see shoe cabinet. But after 2 hours' tour in an assortment of stores/warehouses, we still returned empty-handed.

Dropped the duo at our place, then Poppy went off to meet his friend, Nelson for a bit. I stayed to pack the house and wash up. And we were both having mild flu, so popped a pill each and headed off to bed.

... and today I woke up with a sore eye - got it from Mich yesterday. Shibby.

Speculation and Trading vs. Gambling

Mental note to self.
Chants: "I AM NOT A GAMBLER. I AM NOT A GAMBLER."

Excerpt taken off FJ's blog.

When does trading become gambling? There is a very thin line. I maintain that most traders ARE gamblers. They use markets as a substitute for a casino. Here are some of the sign posts that you have crossed the line. I love Jeff Foxworthy so I will steal his "you just might be a redneck."

1. IF you enter trades without a clear trading plan, you just might be a gambler.
2. IF you trade just to be trading, you just might be a gambler.
3. IF your bored and enter a trade, you just might be a gambler.
4. IF you look at potential profit before assessing potential loses, you just might be a gambler.
5. IF you have no impulse control, you just might be a gambler.
6. IF you have no methodology, you just might be a gambler.
7. IF you rely on others for your trading decisions, you just might be a gambler.
8. IF you do not take full responsibility for your trading outcomes, you just might be a gambler.
9. IF you increase your risk due to losses, you just might be a gambler.
10. IF you do not use stop losses or do not adhere to them, you just might be a gambler.
And my all time favorite
11. IF you get an adrenaline rush when your entering trades, you just might be a gambler.

In summation I would like to say that I do enjoy casino gambling as a form of entertainment. I strive to over come the house's edge when I do gamble. Gambling is entertainment and trading is a business and should be approached as a business enterprise. IF your using the markets as a gambling outlet, be my guest. Traders that approach trading with a positive expectancy WILL take all your money. They will send you stumbling out into the night, cross-eyed and mumbling to yourself. Be smart. You can either feed the trading gods or feed your head. Do the work and get educated before risking one thin dime. Employ laser like focus in your trading and use iron discipline. The end result can be well beyond your wildest expectation.

LWE

Another picture-heavy post ahead.
Too busy these days to write too much.

2010.11.05 Friday
A long day for us.
First stop: Fetch MIL; then went to 舅舅's place, picked up some foodstuff and brought it over to the chalet, where Pei Si and VIctor were already checked-in. Had some hot food while waiting for the rest, then the usual jabber session for me and mahjong session for Poppy.

Then we were off to meet Alex & Mich for Megamind! Awesome show!
Had our suppers at Pioneer and back home for Zzz.


2010.11.06 Saturday
Met up with Angie, Zen, Vincent and QL for JB day trip.
Pity Alex had to attend a wedding dinner, otherwise it'll be so fun with Mich around.

Anyhoos, we caught some random movie - Adèle: Rise of the Mummy. Afterwhich, we walked over to the CIQ building to apply for the MACS pass (yes, we are such frequent visitors, so it'll really help reduce the waiting time.)

Then it was dinner time at Kim Gary. Yum.

American A-mix set
(consists of chicken chop, pork chop, bacon, sausages, chips and salad)


Poppy and his yummy Ice-blended Yam drink.

The boys.

Headed home after a little shopping + petrol.
No car wash since it was raining madly.


2010.11.07 Sunday
Had a good sleep till late morning =)
Bro came by in the morning, and we went to fetch Mommy, and off to JB we went. Told you we're such frequent visitors. Hah.

Popped by aunt's place, hanged around a bit and set off for the supermarket for groceries.
Took a good long time to shop around, drove over to Sutera Mall and shopped some more. Poppy even had his haircut while we shopped.

Dinner was at an ultra-ulu location which came highly recommended by my aunt.
Our objective for the day: CRABS!

Coussie, Mommy, Bro - waiting for the food to be served


Deep-fried Crabs with Salted-Egg
(so irresistible, I almost forgot to snap a picture, because I was busy giap-ing a piece for myself)

Everyone was singing praises for the crabs and Nonya-style fish (not pictured) after dinner.
Of course, we'd love to patronize them again, but I guess we just gotta give my aunt another treat so that she'll bring us there. Hehe.

Ahh, it's been THAT long since Poppy allowed me to have any crabs because of my darned lipid levels.
I must invite Mommy to our dinner more often to enjoy that once-in-a-blue-moon treat.
*Hiak hiak hiak*
