Lunch with Colleagues

Seems like this whole week will be a 'Eating' week, whole week booked for lunch & dinner...How to slim down like that...: {

Barbara is in town again so together wit other PAs we decided to bring her out for lunch. Went to T3 since there's shuttle bus today. Barbara has been to S'pore many times, but this is the 1st time we have lunch with her. A very nice & pleasant lady. Took this pic while we're in the sky train to T3

The extreme in our company, the tallest & the shortest.. hahaha...
we only have 1 1/2hrs to lunch & chit chat before we rushed back to office by the shuttle bus, so quick quick find a restn & settled in.

2nd I got my job re-designated, hehee ofcoz with some gd $$$ kekekee....yippee yippee.. thanks to a understanding Boss, after all he recognised my hard work.

And my amazing Lord, so must share the story of 'Footprints'

Footprints Also Known As "I Had a Dream"

One night I dreamed a dream.I was walking along the beach with my Lord. Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life. For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand, one belonging to me and one to my Lord.

When the last scene of my life shot before me I looked back at the footprints in the sand. There was only one set of footprints. I realized that this was at the lowest and saddest times of my life. This always bothered me and I questioned the Lord about my dilemma.

"Lord, You told me when I decided to follow You, You would walk and talk with me all the way. But I'm aware that during the most troublesome times of my life there is only one set of footprints. I just don't understand why, when I need You most, You leave me."

He whispered, "My precious child, I love you and will never leave you, never, ever, during your trials and testings. When you saw only one set of footprints, It was then that I carried you."

Margaret Fishback Powers, 1964

Prayer for the Day

Dear Heavenly Father, We are grateful that we can call on You for the grace we need when others trespass against us. Help us to maintain a loving attitude when we are faced with ill will. You said, 'Blessed are the peacemakers,' so help me to be one who tries to maintain peace among my acquaintances. Lord, help me to deal with those who are trouble-makers in the proper Biblical manner, so as to see them delivered. I ask You to help me refrain from anger, resentment, and rejection and to deal with them in love and wisdom. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

Dinner

Suddenly craving for soupy meals : p so ask Dar to bring me out for the 'Pork Kidney Mee Suay"

at Bedok North Blk 511 hawker center. This Hawker stall is here for many yrs, used to patronage when I was a teens. I luvee the herbal soup & ofcoz the 'Pork Kidney Mee Suay"/"Yeo Chi Mee Suay" best : )

The portion is rather small for guys, but sure you will go for a 2nd bowl if you like the herbal taste. S$3 per bowl, worth it.
Steam Fish also available in the stall, I find it a bit over priced for this small slice of fish - S$8. But the gravy & the freshness of fish, stopped me from being a nag : p
There's many varieties too, if you dun fancy Pork Kidney. They have Pork Liver or mix Pork, many many more but all come in the herbal soup with Mee suay or rice. The stall is open from 5pm to 2am.

Pizza

What to eat on a Sunday night? SIck of outside food, how about some home cooked : }

Saw Missy Ho did some mini pizza last week, so maybe I can try to make some together with the kids. It has been a yr since I last bake for CNY cookies, so now it's time to get some heat back to the toaster ; }

Decided to do a BIGGER version instead of the MINI's. And Princess Nic helping me to do the toppings... so here we go...

baking in process : } see the cheese melting..it's so irresistible... i m a cheese lover..so can imagine how much cheese I put on top : D

DENG... DENG ..!!! WELL DONE : D

Not only enjoyed the food but also the process of baking with the Princesses..... Thkz !!! : }

Tattooing...

Air Force stickers??? Sis got it from the Airforce, she's giving it to the kids. Then we realised it's those 'tattoo' stickers : }

do some testing on Princess Clara's hand : } we put some water & paste it on her little hand. Then it's our Prince turn..he refused to let me take a pic of him...hahhaha he is so cute.. he think by covering his eyes & nobody can see him : D

hehhee... i still get him secretly.. : p See his nice 'tattoo' on his arm.. some more trying to act cool : D

Moon Cake/Lantern Festival

Moon cake Festival, a season to spend time with family members. Countries like China, Taiwan & HK will declared a public holiday during this season, except for S'pore : ( we have to work as usual. But this year it fall on a Sunday so everyone has no excuse not to come : } As usual we will celebrate on the eve & have the kids come over to have fun.

Tea & Pomelo, a must for digestion after we took the mooncake ; p

Boxes of mooncakes ready for us : p We always received gifts from relatives & frenz so no need to buy ..hehee.. this year we have Mooncake from Ritz Carlton, Shangri-la, and Lavender.

This is my fav. brand Lavender, Branch at Malaysia. Only started to sell in S'pore for the past few yrs, last time I have to ask frenz to get it from JB, this yr Dar bought it for me : } tkz tkz . I like the taste, it's not so sweet & it's very well baked.

the packaging also very presentable.

& the egg yokes... yummy.. I love traditional mooncake, white lotus paste with egg yokes hehehe..

Got mooncake, tea & pomelo sure must have the highlight of the day.. THE LANTERN.. hhaaa I tot my sis-in-law already bought lantern for our Prince, but was surprised that she din... guess she must have tot that we will get 1 for him. Anyway went to few place at last min & managed to find some traditional paper lanterns..hengz..if not the boy will be very upset. My sis, more luck, she found some at Bugis street : ) the Spider man.. and a fish..

definitely Princess Clara will wan the fish...

but kids ...hmmm fickle minded... after awhile she preferred the traditional one

and the Prince saw it also follow suit....

my mum & sis busy lighting up the lanterns : )

beside all the stuff mentioned above, there's 1 more hilarious stuff to introduce... the drum. For what? : D .. don't know whose idea to bring over this drum, & the kids started to hit on it.

Throw aside the lantern & they turned to hit the drum instead....

Last but not least.... the final catch... THE LION DANCE... *faint*....
