kudos to myself! i got a free meal from the lady boss! haha....
muthus curry @ suntec city.
unfortunately, im not a big fan of indian food, so really, im jus a companion.
high class tissue.it is supposed to be a treat from sabrina. but guess, as a student, she wasn't really very financially ready to fork out hundred over dollars for a meal....so when the boss was ordering, i caught her calling SOS!! haha....
 poor thing, guess she didnt really enjoy her food, must hv been too anxious to noe if the rest will make her pay for the meal... :)the 3 ladies under the same office.
and the 2 men....
let's tucked in!!
1st, the appetiser....
then, my fav....i think it is free flow... heh heh.... i ate no rice. Nann is enuf for me, garlic, cheese and butter, yum yum....
 this chicken is very nice!
 choose the curry of ur choice! chicken or fish!
 the blurish group foto.....and look how happy she became when she realised that she dun hv to pay at all! haha....
we had some really big masala prawns ($36!!!), some fish and some vege.....total damage was $130.went to MacDonald's for drinks, and at the same time, we tried the shaker fries.
 not to my liking though....i prefer the original fries. :)doreen calls for a order of machiato.for $2.10, this is the portion she gets, hot from the coffee maker machine.
steady pom pee pee.....but its nice. :)Labels: Dinner, Food, Merry, quality time, Surprise

Many weeks ago, peggy suggested watching "A Midsummer Night's Dream":
a shakespear's play.
Im not a fan of him. but since it is an outdoor play, a picnic somemore, im game for it. :)
but hor, peggy ended up in Macau instead.... hahaha....so, the person who suggested it missed it totally.
We were then discussing who to prepare what food, who to bring what items.
and since we have a vegan in the group that nite, i volunteered to make inari sushi, and baked chicken wing.
this is so uber-easy to make!! jus prepare the rice and push it in!! wah lau, so simple..... haha....
i like it!!
cheers!
So, it was held at:
  livingstone and I were late.... so sorry guys!!got our chops, (look at the contrast color on our skin tone!, and make guess, which is ah siang's and which is mine!)
 the outdoor play infrastructure revealed.
 thanks to jody! who pre-taught us which position is the best! and it was really good.....and thanks to dennis, felin and desmond for reaching there early to q up and chop the grass!the sushi, the wings, the chips, the cold pasta and the drinks (oops, not in the picture though)!
 livingstone and me. with ah siang.  and the group that was there.
 Now, dun ask me if the play is nice. i told u i m not a fan. So, seriously, i dun really noe what they are talking abt, haha....im literature illiterate. la la la la la la la.but it was a good concept for a play.(the answer is ah siang is the fairest lo. im tanner then him...)Labels: baking, cooking, Dinner, Food, Japan Hour, Merry, movie, nature, picnic, quality time

....F.L.U.S.H.E.D....
ya, i had it all flushed.
last monday, 4am, i woke up with a tummy ache. then wat else but, diarrheo.
....follow by super nausea feeling.
(before ur imagination runs wild, plsssss, its jus a normal symptom for food poisoning, i noe wat u are thinking....)
i went back to bed, tried to sleep....nah, it didn't happen that way.i tossed, and turned. pressed my stomach hard, and covered myself with thick thick blanket.nah, it still didn't work. and i didnt wake livingstone.it was soon 8am, (and if u would still like to imagine, why not imagine how i drag the the longest 4hrs in my entire life!heh heh....)livingstone woke up. hmmmmm.....there was a better comfort feeling. at least, i got him to get me the diarrheo pills.i slept. and he stayed to bring me to the clinic after a while.doctor vincent said i had serious food poisoning, .... bloody hell....i was poisoned!he asked me what i had the nites before....scroll down to find out, i think i had jap food, singapore food, and then thai food....nah, i think its jus me la. so many pple eat the same thing, only i got poisoned.anyway, it was quite a good detoxification process for me.i passed out (in liquid) any solid food i ate.so, save the trouble, dun eat.i slept in from 1.30pm, to 8pm. steady pom pee pee....let's jus say this is the 1st time i slept that long, in broad daylight.i kid u not. amazing how the posion works on me.
and that's the many pills i have to take for that single day, per session.livingstone has been most caring for the day.... :)and i was down on MC for 48hrs.

----------------------------------------
First of all, me and my sister went to Holland Village to visit Pantry Magic.
It is a new store, selling anything u need for cooking and baking, something(s) u need in a kitchen.
 Nice Ang Mor Store, colorful pans, quality product, innovative tools. :)at Chip Bee Garden.
And i bought something there. heh heh...didnt expect them to wrap a simple thing, and even gave this kind of carrier. steady.
heh heh, i bought an industrialised ice-cream scoop.yeah yeah, better then i buy those plastic wans la.....
brought my mom to this buddisht temple in St. Michael.Very impressive structure.this sleeping buddha sleeps in a totally transparent glass, if u go at nite, this place is brightly lit up. like a fish tank.
 we went to Sticky Rice for dinner.My mom is a typical chinese who only enjoys chinese food (and it has to be Hup Choon).i noe she wouldn't like thai food anyway,but we jus thought we shld jus chg our menu tonite. heh heh.....
not forgetting my sista, who is also a mother.....tonite is my treat.
