Our dark wood cupboard arrived yesterday!

(Just like the rest of our house furniture, it's also dark wood, to go with the "Ebony & Ivory", black & white theme of the house..)

Cheap & good, simple & nice!

Remind me of those hotel cupboards.. Even the insides look like one! ;p

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival 2011, everybody! :)

When I went to pick up Jonathan Ezra, from playschool last evening, he exited from the school with these..

He made them himself..

I asked him: "Jonathan, you made this snow-skinned mooncake for me to eat?"

He said: "yes"..

So sweet.. :)

But he ended up eating half of it himself last night.. :S

He made a good attempt with the self-made lantern though.. :)

Ju Shin Jung East Korean Charcoal BBQ... with Amanda! :)

Amanda & I specially took half a day leave yesterday afternoon to go have a sumptuous lunch together! :)

We made a reservation with Ju Shin Jung East Korean Charcoal BBQ @ East Coast..

Look at the spread!

Mandy @ "work"! Wahaha! ;D

Mandy! :)

Me! :)

There was sooo much food that we could not finish everything.. :p

The food was "so - so" only.. Not that nice..

I like their Wagyu Beef & Pork Belly though..

The bill was even "nicer".. Just the 2 of us eating, the bill amounted up to $143..

Lol.. :p

Remembering 9/11...

A disaster brings out the best in people.

I think about all those firefighters, policemen & citizens who responded 10 years ago on this day.

Many of them died heroically.

Yeah! Awesome! :D

Love our new house sooo much! :)

Big.. Beautiful.. Peaceful.. Quiet.. Convenient.. Great view during the day, night & at all times.. etc. :)

For the past entire week, I've only worked for a day.. :p

As mentioned in my previous blog post, I was on leave the Friday before last & on Monday, Tuesday was a public holiday in Singapore, thus I only returned to work on Wednesday..

Then again I took urgent leave on Thursday as Jonathan Ezra, had diarrhoea on Wednesday night & I brought him to see a pediatrician with Thomson Medical on Thursday morning..

Gosh! The consultation fee, together with the medical fee was exhorbitant! Just a very simple visit amounted to $170 over.. :/

But the medicine the pediatrician prescribed was extremely effective! :)

Then I was on Childcare Leave again on Friday as it was a school holiday & both the boys didn't have to go to school that day.. :)

So in summary, from the 26th of August 2011 to the 4th of September 2011, I only worked for 1 day!!! :p :)

Spent most of the days relaxing at home..

Visited the Sengkang Sports & Recreation Centre again yesterday..

Was there to check out the playschool for  Jonathan Ezra..

Cooked lunch upon reaching home..

Korean Mushroom noodles with spam, cheese & egg.. Cooked by yours truly.. :)

韓國香菇麵，加肉，芝士和蛋。。我煮的喔。。
