Almost a week here...

It's Friday! Which does not make much of a difference to me now hah. Today is basically chilling at home in the day and looking for a new place for dinner tonight. Since I am home, I decided to make some barley water. The outcome was pretty good. It's so easy and it's good for the body so I think I'll make it more often :)

Yesterday was an eventful day for me. We celebrated Alene's birthday and she was so touched by our gesture. Lunch was a great meal at a Mexican restaurant. The buffalo wings and tortilla chips with guacamole dip were fantastic.

We moved on to the roof top lounge at Ritz Carlton for coffee. The view at the lounge was amazing. I was greeted by clear blue skies when the lift opened.

We were also able to get a bird eye view of Moscow skyline from the lounge.

I was introduced to Su, another super mum with 3 kids. Her son Adam is so adorable.

After coffee, Bing brought me for a walk to the red square where I got to see the iconic St. Basil's Cathedral.

We couldn't help but take a selfie

We gave Alene a pot of orchids as her birthday present. I think it looks very nice on her table.

Flowers are sold everywhere here and the shops are mostly 24hrs. I also visited the Riga flower market and I was just in awe by the mere quantity of flowers sold. I'm starting to have a liking for flowers. Maybe I should buy some to put them in my apartment :)

The Orange Timber

Today was a pretty chill day, walking around, eating and reading my book! It has been a long time since I walked along Blk 85 market. I think the last time was during my sec sch days, on my way back to my grandma house after sch. Since I had breakfast there with my grandma today, I showed der the old sch cake shop where Cham and I bought a huge cream cake (not those fanciful ones we get these days) and finished it all by ourselves under the void deck! Der and I couldn't resist the temptation to buy a slice each :) Strawberry vs blueberry...Only $1.10 each. Those miniture ones that are sold at toast box cost $1.20 and they are only 1/3 the size of this! What a rip off for something nostalgia... Later in the evening, we decided to chill at The Orange Timber @ Tiong Bahru The Orange Timber is a cafe cum art gallery. The plates are bowl used were also meant to be something nostalgia once again... hah However, I use those cutlery at home too. There are like 3 sections to this small cafe...

Happy Chinese New Year!
