I got a surprise gift yet once again
from Feng.
Alabaster - Banana Republic.
It's not the usual sweet perfumes that i loved.
Instead, there is this distinct scent about it that's so mesmerizing..
I couldnt get over it after the 'perfume person' gave me the perfume-strip.

Lotsa Kisses to my perfume supplier!
It's cover is encased with leather.

Looks like a 'serious' scent.

I saw it featured in Cleo (Aug) after I got it.

ANd Cleo describes it as 'unforgettable'.

A little bonus Feng got.

Not as unforgettable compared to alabaster.

Mum Told Feng not to buy so many perfumes for me.

She said my perfumes will 'evaporate' in my air-con room.

Ha!

No wonder I always whiff a familiar scent around her,

that's not the 'Burberry' brand that she uses.

She is helping me to use up my perfume before they evaporates!

For two consecutive nights last week,
Feng and I went to Stadium Waterfront.
We didnt know that on week nights,
the whole place's real deserted! We decided to have dinner there..
Thus, we bought snacks from shin-lin,
(Hot, crispy chicken with lotsa chilli powder!!!)
with a warm, grande caramel-macchiato..
and drove to our little haven..

We enjoyed seeing the moon, the stars,
Singapore flyer, the lights, the expressway, the old oasis..

Time seemed to pass so quickly, as we sat and talked,

with the breeze and waves...

Then, my Laogong commented he was hungry!!

Slipped my mind that my bao-bei can never live with

snacks as his dinner!!!

We brainstormed and Feng remembered this HK cafe in East Coast Park
that apparently, closes late..

It's called the Si-Nai cafe

His supper-cum dinner.
It was baked rice with pork+chicken chops,
topped with a generous spread of cheese and portugese sauce.
Feng said it was not bad..

My fave dessert!!
I often get cravings for it!!

It topped the scale of my 'dessert-billboard',

surpassing long-time hot favourites like hot fudge and caramel cakes,

and creamy cheese cakes!!

Steamed egg pudding.

OR steamed milk pudding if they have it.

Our supper ends with a thick toast!
The Peanut butter and condensed milk version.

Here's for making me indulge in too much food at night!!

I love 'healthy-drinks' like this
honey+lemon drink!

Honey has sooo much properties!

Especially good for my bad throat!!

Its ultra ultra sweeeeet!!!

Here's my trusty and over-worked Fiat.
It brings us to out-of-the-way-places for
dinner, supper,breakfast,
and make several trips from Feng's house in the East ,
to school in the West.
Braving a huge thunder storm last thursday night,
and the scorching afternoon sun..

And enduring a blur driver like me.


We were just before the gantry when we realise our cashcard

ran out of value.

Fortunately, there was no car behind.

i made a 'Gostan"

while Feng feed it with more money from 7-11...

This car needs alot of getting used to.
1st) the indicator switch is on the left, not right.

Thus, instead of signalling, I sprayed water on the windscreen.

2nd) It's auto but has a manual gearbox.

The manual gear freaks me out. Good thing 'anti-auto' Feng's by my side.

3) It behaves like a freaking manual car.

Thus, i let off the gas before traffic lights, and

endures the 'jerking sensation' when it changes gear.

My pick up's damn slow.

Plus, i think the colour sucks.

And the rims are fugly!

Anyway, I still treat it with TLC!!!

Just see how I care for its front bumper while I park it.

What a love-hate relationship I have with Fiat.

Feng tries to speak up for Fiat the schizo car.

He insists that the braking system is good.

But im so not buying it.
