Colour Blindness

While we are on the topic of Yasmin Ahmad. She recently won a Cannes Lions Gold for her heart-warming 'Tan How Ming in Love' commercial. Brilliant! Bravo! Just got to see it again ...




Another notable win(Bronze) is the one titled 'Race'.

Penang Food Feast

Penang Place

Asam Laksa, Beef Rendang, Chendol, Penang Char Kway Teow, Hokkien Mee, Kuih Talam ... this was reason enough for us to head down to Penang Place last Sunday for lunch. For $19.80 plus Service Charge and GST, you get to enjoy a quiet lunch buffet at a deserted business park (what do you expect on a Sunday). If you like spicy, it had enough 'hot' dishes to keep your tongue burning; if you like sweet, there were the DIY Ice Kachang or Chendol; and if you like it sour, thre's always the Penang Laksa. A Penang hawker food feast in a foreign land!

Fish theraphy

Gugo Outing_Turkish Fish Spa

We finally got the chance to sink our feet into a pool of Garra rufa fish yesterday at Qian Hu's fish Spa. Paid $10 for the half an hour session. Tried to be ambitious at the beginning by trying the pool with the bigger fish, some almost 12cm long, but it got too ticklish and we bailed out. Moved to the more popular pool with the 1-2 inch long fish. All in all it was a good experience and we left with smoother soles.

The other part of the outing organised by Vicky's company was to the farm (yes, we have farms here in some backwater part of Singapore) and F&N's birdnest warehouse sale. Though it was a free outing, I guessed we paid our dues by buying lots of farm produce and bottled birdnest.

Been busy with my pics and my other blog.
At least no more tight deadlines and countless little details to look into ... for the wedding I mean.
