♥♥♥ Happy Valentine’s Day! ♥♥♥ Since my valentine is currently back home in England, I shall spend the day romancing myself and enjoy some quality ‘me’ time. What’s better than cooking up a Sunday brunch to start off my day? 🙂 I basically pulled out whatever ‘interesting’ ingredients I had from the fridge and pantry […]
On the days following the start of Chinese New Year, it can be quite a challenge to look for food because many stalls in hawker centres and/or coffee shops can be closed till the 4th day of CNY or even later. Unless you have cooked a huge CNY feast for your reunion meal and have […]

Have you guys been to Woodlands Terrace yet for your CNY shopping? I was there on the weekend – people mountain people sea as usual. Managed to snag salmon fillets, smoked salmon and squids from Fassler, assorted CNY cookies from DJ Bakery, sauces from Chuen Cheong and a bunch of different steamboat ingredients from Li […]
Good morning sunshine! ☀☀☀ The husband and I went for a walk at Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park as I wanted to feed the fishes. When we were done, we decided to go the opposite direction towards Upper Thomson Road so we could deviate from our usual route just for a change. I was glad we […]
