Baby sis's birthday

 Date: 17/11/2020 (Tues)


Char siew bao from Angliss, 2 for Darren, 2 for me.

Rolled around the house, did almost nothing and left the house to meet my sisters.

Almost all reviews were bad on FB about the onsen.

Our experience were however quite good, nothing unpleasant.  Will bring my hubby along the next time.
Everything was very much like onsens in Japan (except that it's so expensive here).... shoe lockers before reception, bag/belongs locker inside.  They have seated shower areas and vanity area with hair dryer also, male and female separate of course.

No photos beyond this point.
They provide disposable bra and panty but I preferred to be naked lolxx...

They had a little cafe in the onsen.


Yukata were given and the experience felt like we were in Japan.


Sisters had milk and coffee.

I ate a lot.


After which we left for dinner at AMK.

If you are interested, this is the place:

The frog's leg and popiah were still good, but the fish steamboat was a disappointment, so this was the last visit liao.

Out for 2 days straight

 Date: 15/11/2020 (Sun)


Went T3 to catch Pokemon.  The thai food seemed expensive, so we went Collins instead.  Once upon a time I love Collins.  Now they are still good, just that it tasted almost the same as eating at home, all thanks to Angliss.  Without Covid, Angliss would still be supplying for restaurants and hotels, it's a blessing that normal households can get their products.

Back to Collins, here's the mushroom soup.

Kinda heart-pain to pay for something which I can do at home at half the price.  But I tell myself it's important take a break and sit back.

Covid didn't stop the crowd surging into Jewel.

I couldn't remember what I was doing here.

The number of flights for 3 terminals, so sad...

Went back home in noon, stepped out shortly to Oakwood to celebrate my baby sis birthday.
Gotten a nice suckling pig for around $130.


Ordered some zhi char to go along.  The table setting was in a mess but food were tasty.

We finished the whole pig, delicious....

Bro-in-law spend a hundred bucks on 2 boxes of durians for my baby sis.

We played Stack, I died lolxx...

My second last session of fitness training.  Not going to continue cos once I start working, I won't be able to find time.  After training brought my nephew to Mcdonalds for brunch.
He is the cutest little being in our clan, all I want to do is to spoil him lolxx....
I stole a bit of fries from him and tahan till I made my way to Lucky Plaza.

Didn't want to spend money in restaurants liao, had cheap and nice yong tau foo before I started to search for a bag charm for my baby sis.
 I gave her a kitty bag charm a few years back when she first left for Oman.  She showed me the kitty's crystals all dropped liao, so I gotten the hint.

I was about to give up when I finally found something in Samantha Thavasa.
She chose the middle one.

Back home, my body broke apart.  Received my parcel, so happy with the packing.

One bottle per year for me.

My sis gave me a whole papaya without skin, I had to milk blend it before it rot.
It's so yummy and my butt loves it.

By this time, the house is already in a big mess....

累 beyond description

 Date: 13/11/2020 (Fri)


Lack of up dates cos I wasn't home most of the time.  Whenever I am home, I struggled to clean up the forever dirty house.  My legs are so sore that I literally couldn't stand or walk any more.

Although fitness training at Oakwood is only an hour, the to and fro took 2hrs, to cool down and bath took an hour or less, lunch was another hour.  Most of the time, other then turning on the washing machine, I am too tired to do anything else back home.  Nevertheless I could see my baby sis more.

This day we walked out for lunch after training.  Yummy zhi char at coffee shop just that we had to put up with black faces of the serving crews.

You are looking at fish soup and ngo hiang.  Very yummy.

My baby sis was eating as much petai as she could, cos Oman no petai at all.


We ordered song fish head but 3/4 song fish was given instead, still good, no complains.
Back to Tampines, went to the clinic and it was closed.  My butt bleeding again, sigh...  I probably need another surgery if it gets worst.

Ta bao teow chew porridge for dinner.  I actually wanted those pork porridge for myself but hubby wanted teow chew porridge.  I said I no energy to do the washing.  He said he would wash, I was fine with anything as long as I don't need to do anything.
累 beyond description.

Cleared off the last piece of hamachi collar, it was so frozen until not so nice already.  PapaVoo was very happy with sambal ladies fingers, made beef balls soup with left over salted veg, tobiko XLB and lastly deep fried soft shell crabs.  I added in too much fish sauce and used the wrong flour.  But dinner was still good.

Have you watch Demon Slayer?

 Date: 11/11/2020 (Wed)


Only bought 1 item (SKII treatment essence) for 11.11 sales.  Cos I know the logistic will be overwhelmed again and screw up orders.

Gave myself a break, ordered Mcdonald's for lunch.

Luis and gf came back after that without lunch.  My fridge is not as stock up as before liao, cos I am trying to cook less and kinda getting ready get out of the house and go to work.  The most convenient thing I could find were Tobiko XLB.  So the kids get to eat within 10mins.

PapaVoo came back with a long roller.  He said I wouldn't need to squat down to roll the floor liao.
I am surprised he knew I squat and roll up hair.  So he still care, I am happy enough.

Dinner I made chicken chop, spaghetti risotto and some escargot but didn't take any photos.

Supper I grilled some bak gua from SHC.

It's quite tasty, texture very soft, different from outside, dry and need effort to chew.  I think this would be good so that I don't have to chew so hard.

It has almost been a month battling with weight, I think I failed.

My 19yo still willing to go out with me, we were on the way to Plaza Sing.

We had late lunch at HongDae Oppa.
I had beef and clams kimchi jjigae.

My darling boy having tteok carborana.
Both were yummy.  We thought we had time but we didn't.  I was all over the place looking for Super King size bedsheets for my baby sis.  When I finally found, it was so expensive, but I don't mind.  Was hoping that she can think of me whenever she sleeps lolxx.... But then she say her luggage exploded already, so at the end never buy.  I made it very quickly through Daiso before heading to the movies.

I was in tears watching Demon Slayer and I felt so silly.

Came back, Angliss delivery arrived safely.  They gave me this gift.
Super atas olive oil, happy.

The late lunch didn't fill me up, gotten supper and fruit juice.

Yo-yo weight

 Date: 09/11/2020 (Mon)


My fitness trainer cancel Mon sessions with all reasons under the sun.  This day he cancelled just before I stepped out of the house, he said his uncle pass away.

So, I had to change back to home clothes and try to get back to sleep.  It's a bit difficult but I was too tired to do anything else then to lie on the bed.

I made japanese char siew with rice for the 2 kids for lunch.  Though ideally ramen will be better but no more ramen de.

Night time went IKEA hoping to find suitable containers to keep Darren's socks and masks but couldn't find.  Here's our sinful dinner which contributed to the failure of my weight lose diet.
I am going nuts, torn between eat and be happy then gets upset later; or don't eat and be moody through the day then wait for the weighing scale to announce my happiness.

Haiz.... but what to do.

Baked frozen croissants and I screwed them up while having my workout session. 

Luis and me, sitting down, nice chit chat over not so nice food.

The brunch was so unhealthy, so I decided to atone by juicing.  It's a genius way to clear off those extra cucumber and broccoli.  I added in lime juice and an apple, taste not bad.

Ta bao dinner, half of the roast pork were fats which I discarded, haiz...


1st half of Dec - suddenly last month of 2024

  01/12/2024 Other than the NTUC supermarket, Singapore Pools had the most business.  Why people keep trying their luck when the odds are so...
