Ronald Macdonald

Are you afraid of Ronald Macdonald?

We were sending my sister off at the airport last Saturday. She was going for training in Germany .

How nice is that? I know I will never get such opportunity *jealous face*

Anyway after we waved the thousands of goodbyes, it was a trip to Macdonalds for supper snack.

Nephew has always been a lil afraid of Ronald Macdonald. Perhaps the red hair and weird looking eyes were too much for him. BUt he was such a brave boy that night!

Must be the presence of the pretty girl -- must act macho!

 Brave boy even sitting on Ronald's lap!

Now that's the reason why he probably acted 

macho! :P Btw, that is his aunt. Yes, AUNTIE.

He continued showing off his bravery by singing "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes..." and pointing at the respective areas on Ronald's body. It was really cute ... I was too busy laughing to take a video of it... 

It was a bit tough to get them to take a picture together though ... both were still active despite it being a late hour already. 

 

 

FINALLY! Look at Mustaqims pouting lips. Sexy yah? But move your vision to Athirah's right hand , and you'll see a pacifier. Haha... yeah, she pulled out his pacifier just in time when I snapped the pic. Very clever girl!

They really remind me of my uncle and I . My youngest uncle is only a year older than me . We grew up together and were very loyal playmates. Athirah and Mustaqim are only a few months apart.... I think that's why they can click (and forever kissing each other!)..

Kids.... they really brighten up my days... 

 

Idiotic Lexus driver

It was another encounter with an idiotic Lexus driver.

I never had a good impression of Lexus drivers - especially BLACK LEXUS. Don't blame me for being judgemental ... blame those uncivilised owners. They drive likethey own the roads....They are worse than the WHITE MERCEDES.

Yesterday, we were at the huge carpark at Tanjong Katong carpark . This carpark is always full especially on weekends so we were quite prepared to go a few rounds before finding a lot.

Luckily for us, a car on the right was moving out. Husby quickly put on the hazard lights and the minute the car moved out, he angled our car and started reversing. ANY STUPID FOOL could see that we were moving into that lot.

So imagine our shock when a BLACK LEXUS just zoomed in (from the left) and park his ugly , monstrous car there! I was stunned... that was sheer rudeness! It was not even a case of " Ooops, I didn't know you were parking there!".... RUDE RUDE RUDE. We did not drive off yet and we stared at the big ass. But the no-brain coward just kept looking down, before coming out from the ugly machine.

My husby wound down the window and shouted at him," Thank you, Sir..for being SO RUDE!" ... a few people were walking around and they all stared at him. And guess what? That monkey actually looked at us, SMILED, and waved his hand. BLOODY HELL!!!

We were in a rush to a fren's kid's birthday party so we quickly found another lot...I even forgot to take a photo of his car.

Now, I am normally a very patient driver and seldom get angry on the road. But I was so pissed off that I swore a few times. Why can't people be gracious and courteous? It is such a bad reflection upon drivers in our society !

I swore that if he happened to be a guest at the party, I was going to go up to him and give him a piece of my mind. 'Unfortunately' , he wasn't and could not experience my flying kick.

He really was such an ass.

Period.

Shoes @ PAZZION

I have never kept it a secret that my other half is as vain as I am , and loves shoes like I do!

It is no wonder that it's the only thing he approves of me buying every now and then.... :)

Thus, it was such a joy to find another person to share with me the joy of buying shoes. Actually, she is not such a shoe-freak like me but I truly hope she will be converted ! Haha..... I mean , it is really fun to go shoe shopping with another female. Girl-bonding , u know ...

That's Sharifa and I during the

National Day celebrations.

The intention was just for her to get a pair of heels. I was just supposed to be a companion. We first went to my favourite store, Charles n Keith.

I saw the pair I've wanted for a long time at 40% discount!!! O.M.G.... but the new-prudent me had to fight much of the temptation. Just because I know FOR SURE I would not be wearing them often. Purple heels are not easy to match.

And so, the fren settled on a pair of white sandals as she could not find a suitable pair of heels. I thought that would be the end of the shopping trip until I remembered that I wanted to check out the shoes at Pazzion.

I've heard so much about it but never had the chance to look at them...so I dragged my dear Sharifah there.

We literally went crazy , I think.

Pazzion shoes are really unique in designs and very eye-catching. Yet , they are not outlandish but very subtly highlight the little details. When Sharifah tried on the third pair, I asked her which pair she was getting.

Apparently, ALL THREE! (She was in a peachy mood that day... You'll soon understand..)

HER BUYS

I love the patterns on the heel! It just jazzes

up an otherwise simple pumps :) Prettaye!

A versatile pair. Looks good with dress , skirt or jeans.

The ribbon at the back adds on to the girlish factor.

 SWEEEEETTTTTTTTTT!!!!! This was the 

pair that first caught my eyes .

I don't think I can carry this off though, 

becauseI am not ladylike and sweet

like that. She wore it with a skirt 

the other day... Angelic :) Even the

students noticed the shoes!

Woo hoo! I've found another shoe-mate ! Hehe..... How could I resist the beautiful sight, right? I decided to get a pair myself. That was tough though, because I liked so many of them. But I had a budget and I had to stick to it. Come , see my new loves!

 I've been wanting to get a pair of brown 

gladiators  but there was never a perfect one

... until I saw these! With added height, some

more! love love!

The lady who attended to us (I think her name was Jackie?) was really patient and attentive to our shopping needs. She was with us throughout, patiently waiting while we pranced about whilst trying on the shoes. It was such great joy when she said we could apply for the VIP card since we have bought 4 pairs. That means discounts in future! I Like!

I thought that would be the end but my new-formed fashionista friend had set her eyes on yet another pair.

A pair of gorgeous silver ballet pumps.... sigh.....

I believe PAZZION is going to be my favourite store.

Some facts to know about PAZZION

1. ALL the shoes are made of leather. Some may be purely leather while others may be a mixture (eg: leather with PVC)
2. New designs are added every two weeks.
3. VIP membership gives you a 10% for every purchase and 20% during your birthday month.
4. Price range - $60 and above.
5. Many are designed with crystals.

Oh ... and I like their paper bag!

I believe packaging is very important if 

one wants to make an impression.

You can drop by their Facebook link @ Pazzion.

You can view photos of their shoes but obviously, that's not enough! You've got to come down , touch and try the shoes on yourselves. So far, mine has been really comfortable :) No regrets.

I shall be very nice and list down all the branches.

1. Tampines Mall

2. Marina Square

3. Bugis Junction

4.Wisma Atria

5. Junction 8

6. The Shoppes @ Marina Bay Sands

If you decide to pay PAZZION a visit, all I could say is "Happy Shoe-Shopping" !

Sushi @ Ramen Ten

It was not so much of the sushi that I was craving for ..... but I so badly wanted to taste the wasabi.

Yep, since last Thursday! That is almost a week by now.

I just love the sensation that you get up your throat and then , the nose, when consuming wasabi. The feeling is super 'shiok'..

We were on the way to Swensens just now for some light snacks when husby did a detour and ....lo and behold, we ended up at Ramen Ten! Yipppeeee..............

Now, I really like the decor at the Century Square outlet, especially with the red and black chandeliers. Chandeliers are just oh-so-gorgeous!

I wasn't very hungry though so did not really eat much. Like I said, I just could not wait to zoom onto that green thingy! SLURP!

Those were the only sushis we took from the 

conveyor belt

WASABI!!!!!!!!!!!! Ok, I know I should not have mixed

the soy sauce with the wasabi but who cares? 

I like mine that way :)

 My must-have order

Half-eaten soft-shell crab and chawanmushi.

The latter is not great though.

It is really good timing to go to Ramen Ten now. Currently, they are having this promotion of 1-for-1 Ramen. He ordered a bowl of ramen and since I did not want any, we asked if we could have the free one as a take-away. Technically, the promotion is only for dine-in but the staff was nice enough to bend the rules a little for us! THank you! Now we have one free dish for tomorrow :)

Also, during a certain time period daily ( cannot remember from what time to what time ) , the cheapest plate of sushi on the conveyor belt costs only 99Cents! Go and calculate how much you can save ....I bet you know a trip down is totally worth it.

I am gonna sleep a happy lady :) ZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.........................

This was such a joy to bake yet , a challenge as well.

I could not complete it at one go. Due to work commitments, I had to do a bit here today and continue on the next.

But since this was my first three - tier, I did face some challenges but nothing that could not be overcome :)

I hope the receipient will love it as much as I did baking it :)

Ready to go!
