1st Weekend of 2009

We both have never kept any diaries or journals, what more blogs! This is something new for the both of us. So pardon us if we sound boring to you.

It’s first Saturday of the year. New year but same old schedule. Here’s how we spent our first Saturday of the year...

Lunch @ Rex
Of course we had the famous Chicken Rice. YUMMY!!! Once upon a time, we were so crazy about it that we have it for dinner at least twice a week. Vin is still crazy about it and it’s his dinner choice everyday if he has it his way. It is so sinful that we are still carrying the weight around. Bleh!

Haircut @ The Amara
Vin has this “sickness” that he has to have a schedule for his haircut. That is on every first weekend after payday. Anyway, the haircut is only S$10 and we both like the style so whatever makes him happy.





Audio House Sale @ Geylang
We had no real plans for the day so we head there to browse around. There was nothing much there. The space was quite small really. Frankly, we have not heard good stories about Audio House and have never bought anything from there.

Shopping @ Marine Parade
Traffic was super bad! It was really crowded there. But we still had a great time. Things we bought:
1) Slippers for Vin
2) Samsung E250 (black) for Papa’s B’day
3) 4 DVDs – The Simpsons Movie, A Beautiful Mind, Serendipity, Kate & Leopold
We had snacks at Swensen’s. We ordered rodeo wings, deep fried mushroom and cookie summit and cleaned up everything. Yummmm!!! We checked out the arcade before heading back. Had a race, some pilot action, some kiddy games and of course we never missed the table hockey game. One of us won the race while the other won the game. Well, you win some and you lose some...

On the first Sunday of the year, Sel cooked Asam Pedas following Ibu’s recipe.

Looks and smell like Asam Pedas. Even taste like Asam Pedas so we guess it’s a success. Hehe… Papa complemented that it was delicious and nobody had diarrhea. Yeay for Sel!

Note to ourselves, take pictures next time…
