Mummy's birthday!

We celebrated dearest mummy's birthday some weeks back.. We had Zhi char dinner and crabs coz mummy requested for it.. Haha! It's her birthday so we pampered her =)

My folks prefer simple Zhi char dinner over expensive dinners at restaurants.. Such are my parents~ Simple and easily contented.. although strict when bringing us up, they never requested or expected us to splurge on them.. My parents are so wonderful, supporting and showering me with unconditional love and teaches me how to be appreciative of life in their little ways~

Crabs!

Nom nom nom

On the night of mummy's birthday eve, sisi and I baked our first ever cake! Haha.. Take a look at our humble little oven toaster.. It can actually bake!!

We were like excited little kids, waiting for our cake to be baked! Ok we cheated a little, it was a pre-mix =p and all we had to do was to add water, beat an egg and add some milk.. And whisk away~~

*ting*

Our first cake!

We decorated the cake with some sugar hearts.. And it become a birthday cake for mummy! Haha.. This home-made cake beats any cake bought from outside.. It contains lots of love and effort from the little girls at home.. Haha..

Happy mummy!

The folks~ =)

All in~ in pyjamas at home.. Haha!

Happy birthday to my dearest mummy~ May good health and happiness surround you always! Stay sweet, beautiful and happy everyday.. I (and family) love you! =)

 

It's February 14..

February 14 - Valentine's Day..

Some hated this day, some dreamed about this day.. Some just couldn't be bothered.. Well 6 years ago on this day - Valentine's Day, we got together.. Pretty cliche to be attached on this day haha, but we did.. Thinking back to those happy and carefree days in school, not knowing what life after school would be like.. We seem to have grown up quite a bit, you can also say we aged a fair bit =p a new wave of young people on the streets slowly made us look like exhibits in the museum.. Haha..

Nevertheless, on 14 February, we went out for a nice dinner to celebrate our 6th year together~ we expected the crowds and exorbitant prices that restaurants will charge.. It had been like that every year.. Haha

Mr. Koh found a nice place to have dinner.. Tucked at the quiet corner of CHIJMES, we became carnivores that night.. Haha! I love meats (I do love my veges too), and Carnivore seemed like a nice place to feast away =)

Beautiful ambience, quiet surroundings.. We were away from the hustle and bustle, almost felt like we were at little Europe~

You may release the Tiger in me.. I smell meat! Haha

We were led to our table, and Mr Koh made himself comfortable..

Couple pic~ though a little blur

So pretty~

Like a boss

Yay! Champagne =)

Meats and champagne makes me happy.. Haha

Eat drink, eat drink.. All night long..

A variety of side dishes and skewered meats... I love their caramelised BBQ pineapple *drools*

We feasted from day till night.. And it was time for our gift exchange~

Spot the new toy.. Haha

Vouchers for me!

The night ended with delicious tiramisu cake topped with strawberries~ Yums!

Cheers~

Thank you Mr Koh for the carnivorous treat at such a nice place! Haha..

Happy 6th Anniversary to us too.. =)

 

3rd visit to River Safari!

My blog is finally revived after a month long hiatus.. Busy busy days~

Let's talk about our trip to the a River Safari 2 months back! Haha.. Gosh 2 months??!!

It was during the CNY period when we visited.. Lots of pretty festive flowers and decorations displayed.. And of course, no one can miss this golden horsey!

 

 

We finally stopped taking pictures and started our adventure again.. The third time for me, and second for him.. But our first time taking the River Safari boat ride! =)

We booked an afternoon slot for the boat ride, and we loitered around while patiently waiting.. Haha

Mischievous squirrel monkey!

We went into the flooded amazon forest aquarium, to soak ourselves in air conditioning.. Haha and also most importantly to say hello to my favourite animal at the River Safari.. The manatee!! I love how tame, harmless and cute they look.. Haha

They eat and shit a lot =p

Feeding time!

Spotted otters too!

We then proceeded to the boat ride assembly point when it was almost time for our scheduled boat ride~

Long queue!

Selfie while waiting

Getting near.. We waited for almost an hr!

Wondering what's beyond the gates

And it's our turn!

Not sure if this animal belongs to the boar family? It bears much resemblance..

The ride was pretty unexciting, and wasn't what I had expected..

The gentle slope - almost bored me to tears

This gentle slope was considered the highlight of the ride.. So thrilling that my toe nails screamed =p

Flamingos

Nevertheless, camwhoring continued~

Next we visited the red panda and Kai Kai/Jia Jia..

Gotcha!

Playing hide and seek

Still hiding =p

We went back to say bye bye to my manatees before leaving River Safari.. Haha..

Sail away~

Lovely hydrangeas =)

Watch out for my next post.. Haha while I continue documenting events in February though it's April now =p
