nothing much has happened lately. so here's hoping that a barrage of pics (mainly food lol) a blog post maketh.





dinner/supper with hubby at A-One Porridge (opp Imbi Palace) one evening after my work/his gym - it was a rainy evening so the porridge was puurfect. the steamed chicken was succulent and juicy too. i got greedy and ordered one biji of century egg. the guilt weighing on me (heh) but it was delish! :D came to abt RM25 for the 2 of us.





lunch at nirwana, bangsar with the girls LL & MC. loved the colours, loved the food. loved the tiramisu dessert too (from alexis, one block down =) loved the catching up and the making fun of. don't really love the (at least) four fund solicitors who stopped by our table throughout the session.




i haven't used the sewing machine for gondunkulous years. but like swimming and driving, you don't really lose the skills. :D then again, i made a major boo-boo which had me un-stitching the entire piece. argh. so yeah, it took me like 3 hours to sew one piece of pillow cover. so fail.




the sewing machine, which gave my legs quite a workout (it has a pedal that needs to be .. pedaled to move the needle) and my mind a good walk down memory lane =)




my mom's guzheng, which distracted me even more from my sewing effort. hehehe..i learned that this thing has only the Do, Re, Mi, So & La strings.. (and according to wiki, you could get Fa & Ti.. by doing something.. i don't rber haha) my first session, and probably my last.




a super late lunch in broga, semenyih, one sunday after church. it was a longggg drive o.O we had 2 fish and lamb and vege, all cooked the same style -- wrapped in aluminium foil cooked over charcoal. quite delish, i must say, but definitely not worth the journey. stopped by Kajang on our way back for satay (i don't rber the name, but it is the only Chinese-operated shop around). that, was worth the journey. burrp!

hello, sheryl chong :)

at our fav tongsui place, sweet bean, in sri petaling. prices have gone up since our last visit (2 bowls like this used to cost abt RM3, now it's like RM4++), but their sesame and peanut paste are still the best ones around and quite worth paying for [we've been disappointed enough times, haven't we? =(]

mimpi mario..

every now and again sometimes, i just wish i could get my hand on a PSP and play mario bro all day long..

this is my mom at work. :) *HUGS*

this was my living room. i was ambitious. spent the weekend taking everything down from all three shelves (i have one downstairs, and three upstairs.. and i carted every single book down in about 2,547 trips. the exercise did me some good i hope!), sorted them out by genre, and putting everything, well mostly (see below), back. reminds me of my librarian days back in st. john's. :D




managed to throw these away. whee! i love clearing stuff. kinda.


this is one of the shelves. i haven't seen it so neat in yearrrrs. love it!


the IKEA sale is ON!! can't wait. i've got a BIG home facelift project coming on. oh the excitedness -- WHEE!! *wink wink*

btw, someone asked why this blog is hardly updated these days. hehehe.. no i haven't gotten lazy. i have a million blogs if you didn't know that already. do chk 'em out (links on the right column under "Virtually Everywhere") ok. plus i've been taken to a little project i'm working on with a couple of friends which i hope would take off (more of that later, if and when it does). right now, it seems all hanging in the air. *grimaces*

and the ultimate world cup game is on this sunday, well Monday morning.. Spain (let it be rbered that my money was on them ;) will be facing off against the Netherlands, and either one will make WC victory as this is their first final appearance. German played an awesome game (in my mind, the best game i've ever seen) when they decimated Argentina (my heart goes out to them :() 4-0 in the q-finals. then they had to play that lousily against the Spaniards.. hehe too bad la.. so yeah. this sunday i will sleep early and bangun for the game. hehe.. my first 2.30am game this WC season. hehe..
