Baby Cupcakes

Cupcakes from Kayden! They looked so pretty that I can't bear to eat them :)

Witty Poems

During GE2011, my FB feed was flooded with lots of information about the opposition parties. In fact, those who supported the govt stuck out like a sore thumb on my news feed. I've also began to read the alternative platforms out of curiosity. After reading for a few months, I can't help but to be amazed by this person, who writes comments poems - funny yet straight-to-the-point. Extracted some for your enjoyment :)

# Curry Saga #

For those Singapore Indians I feel sorry, They got to cook their dishes in a hurry,
PRC neighbours will be back they worry, What a heavy burden they have to carry,
We can only blame that old dictator Harry, Because he let foreigners come in a flurry,
So when come the day old Harry “up lorry”, Singaporeans will rejoice in joy and merry"

# Presidential Elections 2011 #

Dear S’poreans get ready to start, Remember to be wise and smart,
All of you have to do your part, When you look at the election chart,
Tony is the one you have to thwart, And hug Tan jee Say’s loving heart.

# Patrick Tan's Army Stint #

Trying to con us are Tony and his son Patrick, Doing NS the hard way was not the son’s pick,
So to disrupt NS for 12 years was a good trick, Serving as “defence scientist” was his next gimmick,
And PAP’s Mindef came out to defend him so quick, Thinking that we S’poreans are either “Kayu” or brick,
But all their replies are just crap that simply can’t tick, Now Tony Tan must be a man with a skin very thick,
Shamelessly to his presidency plan he continues to stick, Making us Singaporeans want to vomit and feel sick.

Hosted on the Patio

Friday night out, took the train to town & met up with Kenneth dear first before meeting EK & Pris.

I'm so glad to explore new eating places with my friends, who are mostly foodies! This means that they will always be on the lookout of new eating outlets and I just have to tag along, heehee! Guess I've caught on Leecher's leeching bug as well :)

Hosted on the patio, recommended by Pris. The tranquil garden landscaping - lots of greenery and bird cages - makes this place a perfect venue for a garden wedding. They even have a live band, which takes in song dedications.

Early bird catches the worm! We were just in time for happy hours and went ahead to order 1-for-1 beer without EK, lol!

Started with Swiss brown mushroom - oven baked swiss brown mushroom, lovingly filled with a delightful capsicum relish and herb crust.

Bite-sized snapper fillets dipped in beer batter and fried to a golden brown hue, served with fries and tartar sauce.

Fried chicken wings with their special chili dip.

EK & Pris turned up just when food is being served, heehee, perfect timing! We ordered several main dishes for sharing.

Succulent sea tiger prawns, roasted cherry tomatoes and fresh herbs with spaghetti aglio olio style.

Grilled angus beef tenderloin on roasted herb potato and porchini red wine sauce.

Pan roasted Barramundi on olive and bean ragout, grilled asparagus and vanilla bean oil

Wood-smoked french duck breast, nestled amongst asparagus and mushrooms with linguine pasta. All tied together with fragrant rose sauce.

Cheers & start digging in!

As usual, girls always have a separate stomach with it comes to desserts and especially when it concerns chocolate!

Molten dark chocolate fondant - velvety, rich, warm chocolate fondant accompanied with vanilla bean ice cream, yummy~

Smooth, cream cheese cake swirled with chocolate and set on a buttery wafer base and strawberry cake topped with berry sauce.

Generally, a good place to chill out with friends over a few drinks, away from the hustles of the city.

New toy

Bought this toy for baby, but ended up at my place!

Baby Kayden's Full Month Party

Guess where I'm heading?

Baby Kayden's 1st month party!

Gosh, he has grown so big, compared to my last visit @ the hospital.

Proud parents, Siewhui & Alvin. Congrats! Waiting for more good news, heehee :)

With the pretty mama :)

Leecher trying to carry baby Kayden. Surprisingly, baby Kayden was very co-operative and didn't cry when he was being passed from one person to another.

Do you think he looked bored?

He fell asleep when I carried him, lol! Guess he must be very sleepy after staying awake for almost the whole day.

Rebecca came along as well.

Happy 1st month, baby Kayden! May your life be filled with love & happiness :)

Arrival of Baby Kayden

Siewhui texted me to inform us of baby Kayden's arrival! We were so happy for her & visited her together with Xiaoqiang @ the hospital.

He's so tiny & adorable :) Perhaps our voices woke him up and he was feeling grouchy, lol! He kept crying and we had to leave him in the hands of his granny.

Contentment
