Yummy Saturday

Last night I went to the NTUC at Bishan with my friend. She has to
buy some grocery for a BBQ the next day. Later I met up with Hubby
to eat Sushi for dinner. I also manage to pickup my photos from
standard photos.

It was dinner time and there is quite a queue outside Sake Sushi.
We waited for about 10mins before we got into it. I think we have
quite a few red plates this round.. I ate this Soft shell crab crepe,
Hubby had kajiki sashimi and salmon sashimi, we also have some
amaebi sushi and Ika Teriyaki . I never like anything raw but i tried
the Ika teriyaki and found it to be nice. I will definitely eat it next time.

Today I went for my medicure and pedicure in the afternoon. I had my
lunch at the Sim Lim food court before my medicure. I had my
favourite 汤包 and hubby had his favourite Chicken chop fried rice.
The medicure session was a breeze today cos i have 2 gals to work on
my nails. Later I went to OG for some window shopping to wait for
hubby to pick me up. I fell in love with a pair of heels but it was too
expensive.

We went to his house to have dinner with my father,mother-in-law..
Dinner was quite a spread. We have smoked chicken, crispy fish,
Gigantic prawns and fried vegetable. YUM!..

Mum-in-law newest toy : I-gallop from OSIM. Tried for a while.
It was quite fun but a word of caution: Do not use it after dinner .
You might just Puke!! haha..

Went home after watching this show called 台湾妙妙妙!
Talks about fengshui taboos by a fengshui master. In the program
they will visit someone's house and help them to avert disaster by
advising them on the fengshui of their house. Some of these
bad effects of fengshui is quite scary. I am a great believer of
fengShui and i will definately hire a fengshui master to see my
house before i do any renovation works!

I think fengshui is a great wisdom and alot of common sense.
It has been around for many thousand years proves that it is
not merely some superstitious myths. When you read and
learn fengshui, you will understand that it is alot of common
sense. I will practice it to keep the family cohesive and healthy.

There are alot of harmless little acts such as having a clean and
clutter free house is good fengshui. I think anyone with clean and
clutter free house will be very comfortable living in it. See it is
very much common sense. So DO keep thoes clutter away okie.

88 now!

Goodies from THE FACE SHOP

Last night I went to THE FACE SHOP at Wisma with a friend.

Someone recommended her some products from the shop and
she is going to get it. So she jio me to go together. One of my
friend previously recommended the Sleeping Mask from the shop.
She mention that the results were great after using, therefore
I wanted to see it for myself.

So we went immediately after work. Okie to our dissapointment,
the water mask is Out of stock for a VERY VERY long time and
the sales person say that it may be discontinued. It is said that the
water mask is work wonders at hydrating the skin. So i check out the
Sleeping mask which is made from Raspberry Roots. I was told
to use it after toner before going to bed. It is suppose to make the
skin smooth and hydrated.

I wanted something for my Combination skin so the sales lady
recommend me the calendula silky essense. To apply after toner,
before Moisteriser. It is said to balance out the Combination skin
problem.

In total i bought the Raspberry Root Sleeping Mask, the calendula Silky
essense, 3 paper masks and 2 cream eye shadow sticks. One in olive
green and the other in blue.

My frend bought more, she also bought the Raspberry Root Sleeping
Mask, I remember she also bought a Toner, a Eye makeup Remover,
a Eye cream and a Hand Cream. Sorry I didn't really notice from what
range.. haha

I spent about $80+ and I became a member of the shop haha..
My friend naturally became a member since she bought more then me.

I immediately put the products to use last night and i really
wake up with smoother skins!! Thumbs up for the sleeping mask!

The reason why i "only" spend so "little" ... I just bought a range of
products from Origins. I Spent able a total of $250 a few weeks ago on :

Checks and Balance Facial Wash, Make a difference Moisteriser,
10 min drink up mask, Perfect World white Tea skin guardian,
Modern Friction Facial Scrub, No Puffery eye mask. Some of these
comes free after I spent enough to be a member.

Anyway I am going to be very poor this month so i better
check thoes spendings!

The Gathering on Good Friday

Oh yes, I do know that Good Friday is a day that Jesus was crucified
on the cross and that Easter is the resurrection of Christ.

But to many of us, it is just a long weekend ahead . YEAH.
And we thank God for it ( I really Do)

Although I am not a Christian or a catholic, I do believe in Christ.
Okie enough of those religious staffs..

On the day before Good Friday, we gals, guys and animals
gather in my friends apartment for Mahjong!!

Before you start to think that we are some sort of gamblers
that gamble every weekend, you are wrong.
The last time that I gamble was during Chinese New Year.
So it is about 2 months ago..right?

okie.. so me , my husband and 2 of my kakies played mahjong from
11.30pm to 3.30am. We actually wanted to play thru the night but
we are meeting some friends for lunch the next day. And we still
have the next day to play. So we rested for the night

One of my friend tempted hubby with his favourite Ba Ku teh
for breakfast .. therefore we all need to wake up at 8 to go to this
Erm.. jurong .. some hawker center to eat Ba Ku Teh. Sorry
I truly forgot that place.. But I do remember it is near a swimming
pool..

We reached there about 9am. But to our dissappointment,
they have already ran out of the first Batch of Pork RIBS
Ba Ku Teh.. So my Hubby and my gal friend got to stick to
the "normal" Ba Ku.. But I think my Hubby is already quite
happy with it.

As i am on a strict diet, I could only watch and eat some yucky
Fish porriage. Anyway, I never liked Ba Ku Teh, I was more
interested in my friend's Wonton Mee!! Slurp :P~~~

There are some interesting SUN FLOWERS! yes.. sun flowers
are planted in the vicinity of the hawker center and i took a shot
of it using my handphone camera.




Okie my Hubby tabao some Tau Huay and we head back to
the apartment for an half hour mahjong before meeting our other
friends at the rail mall pizza place.. along the upper bukit timah road.

We ordered one of the 16inch Pizza to share and I ordered a pasta
to share with hubby. The pasta is very nice, but I think it is too rich
for me and i have problem digesting it later. The pizza is quite
fantastic. I recommend it.

Hubby was tired after the late night mahjong so he went home to
catch up on sleep after sending us back to the apartment. The
rest of us, went back for a brief song presentation of my new song
and later we started our mahjong game again.

Some of the gals are not interested in the game and watched VCDs
while we play. There is one particular vcd.. about some French
Choir boys that is very interesting. I am going to borrow that later.

One of my friend brought her baby ger and we have lots of fun playing
with her. She is such an angle. Bubbly and cute.

We ended our game at 7. And Hubby came to pick us up to go to
a Family Jap resturant . The prices are abit on the Higher end but
the food is nice. And my darling is a jap food lover. I am sure we
will be back there again!

We left for home after a good dinner.

清明扫墓记

我记得那天是 3 月 31 号。。

前一天晚上我刚刚从台北回来。。
那天早上我 五点半就起床。。
我那袋脏衣服还没洗。。行李也来不及整理, 就匆匆的梳洗
跟着爸爸妈妈一起出发了。。

我们首先去接大姨。。然后就到那蔡厝港 华人坟场。。
先去拜拜外婆。。 差点找不到坟墓。。 哈哈。。

之后我们就去拜拜婆婆。。 也葬在附近。。
在婆婆坟前等叔叔阿姨到齐才开始拜拜。。

那天是。。 星期五。。 我的一些堂弟堂妹都要上课
所以都没能来。。 我曾经说过。。 我很喜欢去扫墓。。
因为一家人又可以团聚。。 平时大家只在新年或者婚宴上才能
见上一面。。所以我非常喜欢这个传统节日。

虽然我不是一个非常 "family oriented" 的一个人。。
可我就是享受着这种难得的相聚。。

有时我会惊见。。 堂弟突然长得比我高了。。
堂妹越来越漂亮了。。 叔叔越来越像阿公了。。哈哈。。
爸爸和叔叔怎么越老越像。。 呵呵。。

妈妈和婶婶说着有趣的家常话。。
谁谁谁。。 考试又第一名了。。谁谁谁又胖了。!!
在说我啦!!!

当那些银纸。。都灰飞烟灭时。。 也是我们启程的时候。。

等等! 还没完呢! 我们还要到普绝寺!!
我们在那里安置了 太公,太婆,公公,外公,还有舅舅的骨灰。
拜拜过后。。 我们就到附近的咖啡店吃早餐。。那时应该是
早上10点多吧。。

哦。。 那摊我很喜欢吃的鸭粥。。偷工减料。。不好吃了!
气死人了!

我过后搭了叔叔的顺风车到三巴旺那里的一间兽医那
替狗狗买干料。。 我的狗狗肠胃敏感。。只能吃特别的干料。。
唯有兽医可以卖!! 好麻烦啊!!

买了我就搭计程车回家。。

我赶快把那袋脏衣服洗了。。就倒头大睡。。
太累了。。 就这样睡到晚饭时间!!
