See you soon.

Dear Lucas,

I went to visit you in the hospital today together with boyfriend but the nurse says we can't see you at the time. Aww~ I really wanted to see your cute little face. It's okay, there's always another time. =)

Hope you like your little bunny jumper, shoes and rattle that I bought for you!


Love,
Aunt YL

Hello, little one!

You will always live in our hearts.
We will never forget you.

Eat: Potato Depot

21 August 2011

Received this image from boyfriend in the morning! Heh. =P




Bought two new bottles of OPI - The "IT" Color and Skull n' Glossbones. Lovely, aren't they?




Today is Singapore's unofficial curry day due to this. I didn't cook my own pot of curry, does eating curry vegetables count?




We saw this Skinny Guinea Pig while shopping around City Hall, it really looks like a pig! Aww~ One of the cutest skinny guinea pig, I've ever seen.




As Boyfriend and I weren't really hungry, we looked around for something light around Raffles City and we decided on Potato Depot. Some comfort food would be for the stomach.




We ordered two potatoes, their signatures - P.D Original ($5.90) and Happy Salmon ($8.90). I chose the P.D Original as I just wanted to taste something more traditional with the usual sour cream and bacon bits, served with some chives on top of it.




I was glad that the sour cream does not have a strong milky smell, it does go well with the fluffy potato. It would have tasted better if the bacon bits are a little more crispy, rather than chewy but I must say they are quite generous with the toppings.

My potato was however, not served hot, it was kind of cold which is disappointing. I love my baked potatoes hot. =(

Happy Salmon has smoked salmon with sour cream and capers. I tried capers for the first time, it was very salty, so you have got to take it together with the potato.




Pay an additional $3 to make your choice of baked potato to a meal that comes with a soup, salad and a soft drink. The soup was made with instant powdered soup, I could feel the powdery texture. The salad was good though with fresh lettuce, carrots, cherry tomatoes and raisins with a sweet and sour dressing.




I eat potatoes with its skin on, it just tastes better but when we were having the leftover potato skin of Happy Salmon, we bit on bits of sand which makes me wonder if the staffs washed the potatoes clean enough.

I got Baozi to get ready to welcome boyfriend when he gets home tomorrow.




Then off I go to NEX to meet Mama for lunch at Ichiban Boshi, I thought I was suppose to be alone with Mama but Papa and brother was there too, as they were looking around to buy new televisions for the home.




Sushis.






Fried Salmon Skin.




Oyaku Zosui, $5.00, a Japanese style risotto with chicken meat, mushrooms, carrots, and egg.




Yaki Niku Zosui, $5.00, a Japanese style risotto with beef.

19 August 2011

The ingredients all ready.




Stir-frying in progress.






It just doesn't taste like Pad Thai. Oh well, I better find the recipe myself and try it again. It still tastes not bad though.


Press release.

16 August 2011

After many days of preparations work, the press releases are finally ready to be send out!


Ecuador Roses.




Wrapped and tied with a string.




Put it in.




Tied and tagged.




All ready!




Sorry boyfriend, I messed up your table while working on the press release. =P

Keeping busy.

14 August 2011

Since boyfriend is away due to his reservist, it means that I need to keep myself a little more occupied every alternate day for two weeks because he will only need to book in on alternate days.

Out shopping with my sister, we went to book for a scrap-booking class at Laine's Papeterie. Then for a simple and cheap lunch.


Milk teas at only $1 each.




Shared a Choco Wassant and a Japanese curry pizza from Provence Cafe.






And a Creme Brulee McFlurry!

Bring the summertime back.

13 August 2011

I packed Braised Duck Hor Fun for lunch from Mei Ling Food Centre's Shi Hui Yuan, since I was around that area to submit a form for my FYP. So yummy that even this pixelated image is able to work it's magic to make me feel hungry now. Boyfriend's mama likes it too. =)




Boyfriend was craving for stewed pork rice for dinner and after doing some research, we decided on 4 Seasons Taiwanese Cuisine, it looks too promising to disappoint us.




Where's my food?!




Boyfriend is snapping...




This picture! Cool eh?




Bubble Red Tea, $4.20 and Chrysanthemum with Wolfberries Tea, $3.80, could have tasted nicer with more wolfberries.




Garlic Century Tofu with Meat Floss, $4.80, anything with meat floss is yummy!




Minced Pork Rice, I still like the one from Xin Wang though.







With choice of Taiwanese (stewed meat sauce rice, sweet potato porridge or house special ramen) or Japanese (curry rice, udon soup or ramen soup).




Fried Chee Cheong Fun with XO Sauce, $6.80. Not bad, would be better if it has more sauce to go together with the chee cheong fun.

Preparation in progress. Ah~ So busy!

Sticky, Gooey, Thick!

10 August 2011

Since boyfriend is having reservist which would mean that I have to have lunch myself, I decided to go to You n' Mee, a noodle shop tucked in a small corner of United Square.

I ordered the Pek Lor Mee which has seafood instead of the usual braised pork slices and ngoh hiang.




They have different kinds of seasonings and chilli to go together with your noodle. The Bango sauce, labeled '7' is a interesting one, sweet sauce with a unique taste. I wonder where I can get it.
