The weather was fantastic last Sunday, so we joined some friends on the beach. Felt like i was getting sunburnt despite lathering on layers and layers of sunblock, yet the water was still too cold for a swim. and just when i thought that warmer weather has arrived, temperatures dipped again on monday and we're back to gloomy and rather cold temperatures. how do you predict the unpredictable? ah... statisticians seem to think they can predict things up to a certain degree of accuracy (perhaps 3 decimal places). astrologers seem to think so too. just like the soothsayers, witches, wizards, fortune-tellers, etc.
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...
