羊洋得意庆羊年!

23 February 2015

开工大吉!

Today is 羊年初五 and office is currently in the 冷清清-mode, so here doing a quick update on our last weekend's CNY celebration before Imma off to lunch!  :P

This year, 羊年 is extra special - because it's Nat's first Lunar New Year that he is enjoying with us... this time last year he was only a month-old baby and now that he is able to interact more, this makes it more fun and enjoyable during our visitations.  We will have another round of friends' visitations coming weekend too!  Whoot!

My Valentine's Day 2015!

16 February 2015

My Valentine's day celebration!

Our plan was to deposit Nat at my mom's and have lou hei dinner with the Yeos before the missus goes for her Korea holiday on 初一!  But ah Thiang wants Nat to join us and have his first lou hei with us.  So.  We changed to lunch instead - had lou hei at Peach Garden together with MIL then after lunch while the Yeos runs errand, we settle Nat down at my mom's then meet them again for dinner at Saver Art!

My Valentines!  The rose was gifted by the kopishop where we had our breakfast earlier - not by ah Thiang...  I also don't know why the kopishop gave us rose... they 'selective' one okay... maybe the son was cute...  Really.  Lol!
 
 
Lego rose from my Valentine!  ah Thiang was randomly window-shopping, came across Lego shop and got me this!  Thank you!
 
 
My Valentines' date (w/the Yeos...)!
 
 
Our Valentine's Day menu at Saveur Art:
 
Potage of oyster champagne
(Brittany Langoustine, Mussels, Clams, Seaweed Toast)
 
Black cod Rossini
(Foie Gras, Ratte Potato, Winter Black Truffle, Madeira Jus)
 
Hay-roasted French Pigeon
(Confit of leg, Winter Root Vegetables, Liver Vinaigrette)
 
Cherry & Coffee
(Muscovado Cake, Marinated Cherries, Coffee Soil, Pedro Ximenez and Cherry Sorbet) 
 
 
Our Valentine's four-course menu - S$79++/pax!  I think we were the only table seated 4 pax, everywhere was like 'a pair' but we are "two pairs"...  :))  Overall, we quite enjoyed all the courses except for the pigeon which is not so liking to our taste...  Since we finished our dinner as early as 7pm, we can has coffee!  Round 2 - chillax-ed around Tiong Bahru area, had our cakes and coffee then a bowl of porridge for sharing before calling it a day!  After the wholesome day of feasting, we were back home early and I continued my spring-cleaning while ah Thiang catch up his games with his PS3!
 
If only every weekend is this relac-ing...  (don't judge, I'mma not complaining... just missing out some 'we-time' with friends, hanging out to feast like no tomorrow while the baby being taken care of!)  :P

Safari Zoo Run 2015!

09 February 2015

Last Sunday we completed our very first family run!  #cheatone

Actually, not run lah... we participated the non-competitive category; stroller walk - consist of 2 adults and a toddler below the age of 3!  So basically the run was flag off together with all the parents with baby prams and baby carriers at the starting point!

ah Thiang paid $100 for a 2.8KM walk that includes admissions to the Zoo and River Safari!  It's a pity that we are not allow to take the river cruise partly due to Nat's height is not within the guideline.  Nevertheless, we managed to catch Kai Kai and Jia Jia, walked a few rounds at the Zoo and get to see the White Tiger at least thrice!  #valueformoney  ah Thiang super loved the park though, he was repeatedly saying "... wah, it's all sheltered leh!"...  We will be back!

Our family bibs!  Nat's tee comes with the animals print!
 
 
First, family picture before flag off!
 
 
Daddy gave him a 将杯 aka paper cup!  And on the right is our medal - he care less about that and was yawning away playing his new toy - plastic bottle!  :O
 
 
A typical touristy shot with Kai Kai!  Jia Jia was shyly sleeping away at hillup next door...
