I finally dug out my aerolatte last week after procuring some instant coffee. To be perfectly honest, i've been trying to stop my caffeine addiction since april, but I HAVE FINALLY SUCCUMBED!!! The instant coffee was to make tiramisu, or so i told myself when picking it out of the shelf at the supermarket. but i immediately made myself this frothy latte when i got home, instead of tiramisu. YIKES!!! BUT, i've been trying to keep it at 1 latte every other day. let's see how long i can keep it at bay.
i miss hanging out at 'starbucks', 'coffee club', 'tcc' and 'coffee bean and tea leaf' outlets. now i have 'bermy home-made' version. doesn't taste all that bad either!
last night we had a most scrumptious bbq dinner at the original swizzle inn . much much much better than the dinner we had some days back with O and K at the branch in warwick. woo.... i had the char-grilled prime rib and the much famed rum swizzle, while hao-e had the margarita shrimp and strawberry daiquiri. blogging about it brings back nice memories. heh. Oh! C and i found some fresh watercress at the marketplace yesterday. so today's lunch we had watercress soup. i've been yearning for some light clear vegetable soup for some time... especially after a discussion with HL about the lack of vege variety here, and how she spotted kailan on the island! KAILAN !!! how did they manage to get their hands on kailan ?! i was joking with HL that one of the chefs must have secretly brought over some seeds and planted some in his back garden. or else why doesn't kailan appear in the vege aisle of the marketplace as well?! oh, and i bought some canned longan, jackfrui...
