Damage Control Day
The truth is I offended my mom, and so I labelled a Damage Control Day on my calendar, asked her out for lunch, and spent some quality time with her out in town.
Lunch was supposed to be at YUM CHA, but it was drizzling when I reached ChinatownMRT station, and with bbTara in tow, and without a rain cover for the stroller, it was impossible.
So I suggested taking the train to Raffles City instead.
And we promptly decided on Ding Tai Feng. It was donkey years back since I last dine in this restaurant. And it was becos I didnt find the food fantastic at all, despite the queues we see everytime we passed by the Tampines Mall branch.
we ordered the xiao long bao, and one of it came 'punctured', the server confessed to us, and made up for another one...
besides this, we had the steam shrimp dumpling, hot and sour soup and yam bao.
my comments are still the same. Only the xiao long bao is eat-able.
When we fill up our tummy, it was bbTara's turn. As usual, I brought her to the baby room on the 4th level, where she can quietly enjoy her milk.
After which, I decided to choose a set of cutlery for her as we shld be able to start her on semi solid food next mth!
I just picked up all the spoons and bowls I saw, and placed them all in front of her!
Now, she has the liberty to choose her own. =)
she usually falls asleep when we were shopping.....awesome!
and this was what she chosed. =)
After raffles city, we walked to suntec city for carrefour and dinner. And as livingstone had to work late that nite, I had to make my way home on my own.
I must say I am so uber delighted that bbTara never gave me any trouble during our ride in the train, or while we were shopping and eating.
She's such a lovely girl! I have no worries pushing her around, and hanging all my shopping bags on her powerful stroller!
