Happy Easter!

Busy Easter weekend! Got my screening report from the doctors on Thursday, I have to cut down on sugars, oily food and carbs.... uhoh, nothing about the lumps so i'm grateful. Marc Jacobs bag arrived in the evening, woohoo!   Good Friday was spent in Church and shopping at Sim Lim Square for Hao-e's new PC. Pilates on Saturday morning after a week's break, super out of shape.  think i should probably start doing some exercises at home and maybe go for swim downstairs when i get a chance. Chewy had a good scrubbing session at noon then off to watch Le Noir at Sands Theatre on Saturday afternoon, fun! Cousin-in-law's wedding dinner at Conrad on Saturday evening, no shark's fin which was a bummer. Easter mass on Sunday morning followed by Qingming thingamie at Mt Vernon. Sunday brunch at York Hotel's Penang Hawker Buffet, yum! Watched 1.5 movies too - GI Joe (meh) and SVFV (vulgar).  SVFV was the movie that  was banned and made the h...

dinner at swizzle inn

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...

I'm down with flu

am at home today, trying to recover quickly from this flu that's causing this ache in my back. shite. supposed to try this new class called Step Blitz last evening, but i just couldn't make it... doc gave some sleep-inducing medicine, which made me so drowsy i fell asleep at 9pm and missed desperate housewives. sigh. about the weekend, spent sunday with hao-e at sim lim. couldn't understand a word of the gibberish they were spouting there. what gigs and rams and bytes etc. the first i thought was a performance, the second an animal and the last would be the things mosquites do to humans. went hunting around level 4 for a flat LCD screen. walked to and fro 3 locations before he was finally happy with his purchase. poor other salesman, he looked a bit worn out after that. so now we are going to have 2 PCs at home, so that poor me can surf the net when i feel like it. (don't need to pester him to get off the chair for once...) today's the day of the dental a...
