MORE Singapore food

Hehehehe... I can eat and drink plenty! Here's a collage of what I ate over the past week or so.

1. Night out with Mauzzie and the boys at Wala Wala where I ate my fill of chicken wings, stuffed Jalapenos and pizza.



2. Hainanese Curry Rice with pork chops and Cabbage from Telok Blangah Blk 50 something. It's my fav and is super duper good....


3. Ya Kun Kaya toast, half-boiled eggs and a cuppa local coffee . This was my lunch cum tea.


4. Tapas at a Spanish restaurant located in Clarke Quay. The Paella was a tad salty but still yummy.




5. Canapes at the Nescafe press conference held at the Conrad Hotel


6. Dinner at Tiong Bahru Market where I ate my fill of Chwee kuay ( can anyone in China make this??? I will be your loyal supporter!) and Char kway teow. Ooo I shared an ice Kachang with my sis after that . Man, can I eat!


This was her own plate. I had another!

Painted table - update

I added some final touches this morning before varnishing

Wannabe artist/ ceiling painter

Our flat in Singapore was rented out to a family with kids and the unfortunate thing is that kids tend to like drawing on stuff, be it walls, furniture, cushions... we had a cheap side table from ikea which was thus destroyed. I won't even mention the other stuff. This was a cheap untreated pine wood table which I may have gotten for free from ikea.


Since I haven't got anything to do, I decided to paint the table top to hide the childish scrawls. Here it is, my first and only attempt to paint a landscape. This is a view from Santorini, Greece which I vaguely recall. White washed buildings, blue sky and an even bluer sea. It was beautiful. I'm not particularly good at art and I only had 2 colors of paint - blue and white- so the fact this turned out well has made me quite pleased with my DIY efforts. I wonder what else I can paint while hanging out in the corridor waiting for the workmen to retile my toilets....oooo... maybe I can repaint the ceiling myself!! Hmm.. i could even be the next Michaelangelo. Ha ha likely in my dreams!

HDB upgrading of our flat

It's been 2 horribly dusty, dirty days... I covered all our stuff with plastic sheets but everything's managed to accumulate a thick layer of dust even under the covers. I foresee an uphill cleaning task.





The Before





Toilet before... real old






Living room with furniture moved... before the mess



Rooms before the mess





The during...



The workmen covered the floor to avoid chipping the tiles... but there's no protection against dust.

The super dusty and dirty bedroom...




One of the toilets now. After 2 full days of hacking.
