I'm a lil more bloggy now in the wee hours of the morning. maybe things are moving on la...so got mood back. blogging is all about mood i think. but while i was taking a break from here many things still happened. and i cooked quite a bit these few days from after cny till last week. i usually try something new when someone comes over to eat...and so far i have varying degrees of success. oh whell..it's all experimental i say.

but one of the reasons i'm putting on weight (2kg liao!! :S ) is because i've been eating..and enjoying my eating. and my lunch buddy & I are like looking for new places to eat always..though we settle for normal stuff sometimes. wed we're going to this Café Divine

i read at chubbyhubby...so gonna check it out..then..my last free&easy lunch with my ol' buddy.

previously we went to Ecleactic Attic at plaza sing where she treated me for lunch (as a bday gift) so we devoured our food before i could take them. but it's fun and has all the pretty china plates and quaint setting that wants me to have a corner of my house like that. i only took the dessert. really small but good things comes in small portions so u don't overeat.

and another attempt to go back to Cafe DelMar to watch the sunset backfired cos it was too cloudy to see decent sun..so we settled for Marche at Vivo instead..and the first time i'm eating this Pork Knuckle!! huge! so we shared it...it's not cheap anyway...around $18 for that block of meat.

by the time we shaved off all the meat we were hungry enough to gobble it up.

and we shared fruit smoothie with a tiramisu at Pacific Cafe...now u know why i'm gaining weight...

more food when i tried to cook for MM's GOTS...and i think this one made it well (i'll try it again next time) cos tomato is so appetizing. baked rice! (not so for the potato tortilla tho..took too long too cook)




i helped out with my first ever church wedding deco and found that it isn't easy to do such deco at all!! and we thought one afternoon and evening is enough...but we did till 11pm. (ok better than when they did my wedding deco...they did till 1230pm...cos of the pink cross but it was really beautiful).

we changed plans a few times because what we thought worked didn't look nice when we really did it. so instead of doing the ribbons streaming down we clumped the ribbons together..but i didn't take photos of those.
so u have the cala lilies (these are from taiwan..costs abt $8 for 5 stalks)

and my attempt at, according to ck, very grace, thing to do...this.


while i almost want to swear off doing any church deco (just like what ck who did my wedding deco said last last year)..there's another coming oct..but thank goodness i'm not gonna mastermind it..helping is not as stressful. oh but this is gonna be interesting..because we have a day to get the thing done and put it up in 1/2 hr on the wedding day. a wedding on a sunday, after church service.

whell..doing beautiful things is nice...like those things in martha stewart, real simple, donna hay...u know those things. look pretty, nice good things...and food.

better sleep..i've got a house to clean and mountain of clothes to send to wash
