I had a pre-wedding dinner with PA tonight. Just normal hangout stuffs, eating and window shopping. With me end up buying something (despite the fact that I had made some financial planning resolutions.. :S)

Dinner was at Swensens, Parco Bugis Junction. I felt like having some western fare, felt like I have not had western fare for ages. And besides, PA felt like eating some ice-cream, and Swensens have them too. So... It was a natural "progressive" choice.




Oh, it's just simple fish & chips with tartar sauce, for the both of us. And the ice-cream for dessert.



She had Coit Tower and I had Chewy Chocolate (no prize for guessing why :) I was glad I chose a small glass, cos I reckon I couldn't take in more food after the fish & chios. PA couldn't finish her ice-cream, haha! ;)

Before that (sorry for the reverse chronological order of this post), we were window shopping (I am looking for a replacement for my purse) and we strolled into an accessories shop. I wasn't awestruck by the accessories there (something I normally do). I was in love with the first thing I saw in the store, a stand with lots and lots of christmas ornaments. Beautiful Christmas ornaments. One of them had me standing at the stand for a long time, and I finally parted $6.50 for it.

Meet the mascot for Fluffy and Floaty Thots of Fumblebee, Ms Fig Fairy!
It's the perfect decoration to hang on my door, all year round!

Watching Ms Fig Fairy jump can be so much fun!

1, 2, 3.... Weeeeeeeeeeeeee..............................

I will take a better picture of the mascot and use it to update the look of this blog. Watch this space...

Actually, I did have western meal recently. I was at IKEA last Tuesday with my colleague to purchase something for the office, and this are what we ate there:



Left to right: Restaurant at IKEA, "Sweeedeesh" Meatballs *YUMMY!* and Smoked Salmon *Yummy!*

Reasonable price for good food. No wonder the restaurant is packed over the weekends! I hope IKEA Tampines will open soon. So that us people in the west and central can enjoy IKEA Alexandra with lesser crowds *hehe, selfish thought!*

So in conclusion, today was a happy day for me :) The highlight of it being the discovery of my mascot, haha! ;) I may go back there and buy the others, but $9.90 for the others (that are not jumpy like Ms Fig Fairy, ie. no strings) is something that I have to consider now that I have a tight budget.

I mean, when PA bought me across the street to ICON at Bugis Point opposit Parco, there were temptations and temptations. I settled for a brown leather belt I had been looking for to match one of blouses and had to respond to the responsible signals in my head when I was egged on by PA to buy a black blouse at the same store. The owner was even ready to drop the price down by $10 just to get me to be her last customer of the day. Fortunately(for me, but not for the owner :P), I didn't have much feeling for the dress, though it is quite trendy, otherwise, I would buy it :P

Thanks for the reminder, God :)

Tomorrow, two of my closest friends will be getting married to one another. I think I will cry at the solemnisation ceremony :) They are lovely people, a wonderful pair and truly deserve one another. All the things I have done for them for this wedding is worth every bit.

I will be away for the entire day tomorrow. Hopefully I will have enough stamina to write on Saturday. Till the next blog...
