As the month of May comes to a close, it's a gentle reminder to me that we've almost reached mid year... Another month of events amidst the usual procrastination, hesitation, etc.. haha..
Congrats to friends who have entered quarter-life crisis =P and friends who have long passed that phase.. haha.. I'm not gloating, as it'll be my turn soon.. I seek solace in knowing that I have friends not knowing what they want in life even as they approach 30.. HAHA! so I have an excuse for my bewilderment while I wander around..
Ok, this month... We visited the Mint Toy Museum =) Much talked about, always wanted to visit, and we finally did..
Mr Koh with the toys~
Bear bear with eyebrows!
I was a convent girl once =) Simple in virture, steadfast in duty..
Can you spot the tube of Darlie toothpaste amongst the darkie items? Darlie used to be called Darkie =)
Me with the toys~
Attraction checked!
I think my parents might be able to relate to the vintage toys better? I could only vaguely remember some of them.. haha.. but it's a nice short tour around the premises.. entrance tickets are not cheap though, but worth a visit =)

A nice cup of cappuccino brightened up my day immediately..

It was International Museum Day last Sunday~ and we visited the Coins and Notes Museum, which is nicely hidden along the stretch of shop houses at Chinatown.. it was so well camouflaged that I almost wanted to ask for directions.. like a suagu tourist..
Banana Notes, used during the Japanese occupation days..
Posing with a gigantic stone... which was used as a coin in the olden days.. Not sure how much it's worth though.. haha..

Food glorious food...........
Yummy Shabu Shabu buffet!! I was very well fed that day.. haha~ I could have eaten more.. I wanted to, but age has slowly caught up and I realised I'm no longer 15 =P
The traditional cake slices that I love since young~ I'm delighted that they are still around~ Can't seem to find them easily nowadays, since the emergence of modern cafes and classy bakeries..
Simple pleasures in life.. Not fancyful, not pricey, but loads of joy =)
On the pricier end.....
This is just as yummy.. haha =P
