Nutella (ella ella ella...)























ooh! I could think of slight alternatives to this yummy treat. Maybe I could manage a simple little roll. Reminds me of the waffle I had in Paris!

Tis a working weekend I'm afraid, and I have a few things to clear. However, I managed to do my quiet time (bliss), squeeze in some saturday surfing, blog updating and am gearing up to do my work. And as incentive to not dilly-dally, will be going to the airport this evening to welcome wen back from Hanoi (my cell group is going down to surprise her and the rest). Airport gallivanting, whee!

TTFN!

Carnival

Tis a beautiful balloony day on the historic grounds of st Andrews. It
used to be that a church steeple was the highest point in a village.
That has long passed here but it's beautiful anyway. I love green
lawns and white buildings!

De-cluttering

Was finally forced to clean up my hard disk which was choking from tonnes of photos and projects and whatnot. Into my trusty gold seagate harddisk they went. And my notebook breathed a sigh of relief.

Can't hardly wait

I'm counting down the weeks until the much-anticipated break.
There will be no lugging of work over to do.
There will be plenty of rest, unwinding, recharging.

My slightly dorky confession is that my e-ticket is already printed and has been neatly folded and stored in my passport holder - a luxurious-feeling item that makes me feel like I've got it all together.

Can.not.wait.

Retro Green



















Our ancient lime/lemon squeezer is still going strong.
It is so cutely green!
It's a hot day, and we had limes in the fridge.
As they say, when life gives you limes, make lime juice...
Here's to a work-free weekend! Whee.

Work Week Interlude



















My cousin B turned 11 today.
A bunch of my family stayed at the Sentosa chalets overnight.
This is the school holiday week, so the office is rather quiet.
I took the afternoon off and hopped over to meet them.
I had an idyllic afternoon.
Also did the Mega Zip and Luge. We had great fun.
I love it when I get a good day off.
Oh, and we ended off with an outing to coffee bean.

Gallivanting



















I love love love gallivanting. I have been pretty busy in the last few weeks, working very intensively on a project which ended on a high note this past week. So it was a sweet feeling to start the weekend with.

So today was a totally unplanned and unexpected day for gallivanting with Sheena... lunch, shopping (oh I bought my brother's Christmas gift already - I know, it's early, but it's not that easy finding him stuff! Into hiding it goes until the appointed time), heading off for a movie on the spur of the moment. Whee. I am grateful for dear friends with which to share the many chapters of our lives *grin*

In other news - my aunt has been out of the hospital for about a week now and I think the whole experience has brought the family closer together. Cool.

On to the new week!

Presents are delightful

I've got a lovely birthday present waiting for one little girl. Now if
only her mamma will hurry up and arrange for us to meet up :)
