a night at ikea

*Another backdated post*
Was busy on wed & have class on thur. Here another backdated post =p Went to ikea on Tuesday to get some storage boxes for my baking stuffs as well as boxes to pack the stuffs off e half-spoil bookshelf that is going to be remove away soon. Wed is a pH so can afford to have a tiring night haha Filled my hunger before hunting for the boxes. Had a nice dinner of meatball (@$4 promo price every tue), etc. Managed to get what I'm looking for and mixing bowl and also a new neck roll as my bloster =) These stuffs really cause me to spend quite abit =x Was perhaps stun with the total amount $$ when making payment.
The taxi queue @ ikea was long but managed to fetch a cab home at e taxi stand outside e police headquarter as I had too many stuffs to carry =x Accident after Eng Neo exit, no choice but had to go by another route. Actually it was expected because of raining day, but forgotten to tell e taxi driver not to go by e expressway. Even there wasn't any accident, it would be heavy traffic too.
Tried out e choco eclair recipe on wed =) Smell e same as those eclair I learnt in class and taste e same too.

xmas logcake





*another backdated post*

Was busy during last week attending classes so didn't have time to blog & post. Went to baking class last friday and learn how to bake xmas logcake and decorate it with fondant. Decorating cakes/cupcakes with fondant was something that interest me lately. Have been seeing those pretty cupcakes/cakes selling outside nicely decorated using fondant, just make me so wanted to hand on myself =p It always look easy but actually there's technique behind it. It will definitely feel great to have your own designed product. This is what I usually feel =) But due to the size of the class & time constraint, the teacher had helped us baked the logcake in advance. Our hands on session will be cutting the cake, creaming the cake & decorate it using the fondant. Enjoy attending the class although these contribute & increase to my expenses entry =p

timbre @old sch


seafood flv & roasted duck flv

4 cheeses flv & buffalo wing flv


Met up with my poly friends to celebrate one of their bday at timbre last wednesday. Before heading for dinner, my friend & I decided to went to icing room to get a cake as surprise for nov bday baby. Decided to draw a simple picture (piglet) on the cake as it was the first time we decorating a cake. The outcome of our decoration wasn't bad =) We spend about 30min decorating the cake.


After that, we head to PS to meet the bday baby and went up to timbre together. Why I would use the word 'went up' is because timbre is situated at mount sophia that is behind PS and up the hill. We had to climb up a long flight of stair before reaching timbre. It will be much easier to drive if one is tiring of climbing a long flight of stair =p


The place was packed but lucky we did make a reservation. Research online on their website and found out that 50% of the seats are for reservation & 50% for walk-in-customers based on first come first serve basis. The food and ambient were really not bad as recommended by the bday baby, but the tables were abit too small. Can you image how big the table is just enough to place a pizza. Mention about pizza, oh ya! Like the roasted duck flavour pizza. The special about the pizza here beside is thin crust, you can chose half pizza too. The meaning of half pizza mean that you can actually have two flavours on one pizza. Eg. half of the pizza with seafood flavour and e other half with roasted duck flavour. We ordered the stirlon steak too, taste not bad. Beside these, they have live band singing too.

Last but not least, I enjoyed the celebration & night. Thanks gals & cya soon again for xmas gathering celebration =D

relaxing day

economic fried bee hoon & kway tiao with egg, char siew & otah
fried carrot cake & pi dan porridge
indian rojak & fried oyster omelette
orange & green apple juice

A super packed day but relaxing. Also a day of hawker food. The day started off with breakfast with family at jurong east hawker centre. The char siew look very attractive but taste not very nice, abit hard. The porridge texture not smooth enough also, not the type of porridge that I like. But the otah taste very nice. Fried carrot cake also not bad. Saw a chestdrawer of e size that I'm looking for when passby a furniture shop there. Also manage to find e type of bedframe that I'm looking for & is within my budget =) But I can't make any purchase yet because I've to wait for my window blinds to be installed first. It'll be messy & dusty if I get my bedframe in first because my bed is placed beside e window only hahaha Due to e delivery, I have to get both e furnitures in at e same instead of one by one. Now e only thing I can do is to wait for the stock of e window blinds to arrive next month. The salesperson just sms on wednesday saying that e material I chose currently no stock -_-" This show how 'professional' this salesperson is. Never check e stock before offering & closing e sales.


After breakfast, head down to paragon for spa. My sis got a birthday treat at a promotion price from sony as their member. I'm able to enjoy this price also because e promotion allow her to bring a person along. The first time I've spa massage. Usage of jacuzzi & steam bath before a 60min massage. Is a 3-in-1 massage of swedish style cum tui na & one more I forget already :x Super relaxing & I like e feel =)


Another meal of hawker food of e day =) Lunch at Seah Im food centre at harbourfront bus interchange as my sis sent her phone down to Vivo for repair. Had indian rojak & fried oyster omelette. Long time since I've indian rojak. Last but not least, time for facial again. The torturing session also that none of e session I enjoyed. The most terrible activity of e day =( Today extraction was super painful. Wonder how that facial consultant got her license. The first time e pain was so unbearable that my tears flowed down non-stop. I'll definitely not let that consultant do extraction for me e next round. Don't know what e point of having a fix consultant whereas she don't attend to you for e treatment.


Ended my last meal of e day with half a set of McWing meal. A long wkend will be becoming to e end soon. Going to have a gd sleep soon & adjust mood tmr to get ready for mon blue =p Hope tonite will have a gd slp with a nice weather as it raining.
