Salad Stop!

I had this for lunch from Salad Stop! one afternoon. It was yummy and healthy but also quite pricey. It costs almost twice the amount of a bowl of noodles or a plate of rice from the food court. Sigh...why can't salads be more affordable?

Cafe Americano

Strangely, I have started to drink black coffee recently. My first cup was Seattle's Best Coffee from Burger King and I was surprised that it actually tasted good! The aroma of black coffee is also very much nicer than Mocha or the rest.

I believe if a cup of coffee or anything can perk you up in the midst of busyness and or tiredness, it's worth spending the money and effort to get it. :)

Made with Love

This ring was handmade with love by my husband (boyfriend then) when he proposed to me more than 10 years ago. I would love to have it in pink but apparently, blue is his favourite colour. Anyway, it is quite amazing that I could still fit into this ring but not my wedding ring!

P/S: He did buy a real white gold proposal ring later.

Barney's Musical Castle - Live on Stage

My husband received an email that we have won three tickets worth $213 to watch Barney's Musical Castle! Praise Jesus for yet another tangible fruit of the year (more to come, amen!)! When I told Sarabelle, she wasn't interested at all cos according to her, "Barney is for little kids"...that's true! I brought her to watch Barney in 2008 when she was 4 years+. Megan is quite excited about it though. :)

Heart-shaped Egg

This heart-shaped egg is so cute and lovely! Found it in my mum's packet of fried rice from the western food stall near our place. My husband and I were quite amused by this egg but ate it nonetheless! Ha!

The One and Only

I have a one and only cross necklace which I bought more than 14 years ago. Ironically, it was bought with my two schoolmates who are non-believers. When we walked into Goldheart at Wisma Atria one day, I asked the staff to show me their collection of cross pendants and told them my budget of $200. The staff showed me this necklace and I love it when I first laid my eyes on it. It is a very nice cross with a tiny diamond in the middle, exactly the type I was looking for!

A few years later, this necklace was broken while I was handling a child with special needs. I was a teacher then. Though I was really upset, I did not get it fix but kept it somewhere. Recently, I found this necklace while I was tidying some stuff. It certainly brought back sweet memories. I hope I will get it fix one day so I can wear it again or pass it down to one of my daughters. :)

Strawberry Tart

To sweeten my day, I bought a freshly baked strawberry tart from Han's for tea. Initially, I wanted to get my favourite peach tart at $1.40 but sad to say, it was out of stock. This strawberry tart was 'waving' at me frantically and it costs exactly the amount I had in my pocket ($4) then. Thankfully, my trip was not wasted. God is good, all the time!

By the way, I didn't gobble up the tart. I brought it home to share with my precious girls. :)
