Birthday Celebration

This is long overdue. But I've been so busy, I really did not have the time to do it. Better late than never, so here it is.

Brought Hubby to SOFRA to celebrate his Bday in advance after his lessons and mass.
The food was quite good, but too much meat for my liking. I think hubby enjoyed it though. We had kabab and skewers of meat. All quite nice! The environment is also quite cozy! I like the spaciousness of the whole restaurant where they had a big area for guests to wait for tables.

Being a Saturady, the restaurant was of course quite pack and full of families. Surprisingly, it wasn't that noisy. Just the usual buzz.

There's also a half wall glass panel where we can see what the chefs are doing and there's 1 eye candy in there! =P

It was a nice dinner but the bleh thing was we got into an arguement over something which I cannot remember the full details now, but it has got something to do with further education... Masters? or something like that la.

Anway, on hubby's actual Birthday, I rushed down to J8 and got him a cake from Breadtalk. Tapowed dinner (Yaki Tori) and all, then proceed to rush home to 'hide' the dinner and cake. Cannot let him see the Yaki Tori ma. If he sees it then he knows I've been to J8 then he sure suspect got a cake somewhere!

So being the very clever wife that I am, I hid the dinner in the toaster and arrange the items in the fridge so that he won't see it. And true enough, he walked past once, twice and NEVER suspect nor see anything! =)

Many many candles for the Birthday man...

Another year older, 1 more mini candle to the already alot pile.

Presented the cake to him and sang him Birthday Song. He looked so pleased... Like a small boy.

That silly man... blowing out candles... Can look so grumpy some more.

Rasberry....Super sour lor! >.<

Finally cutting the cake!Without all the things, look so ugly.. some more the candles melted... Wax all over!

Some multilayered mini Lychee thingy cake... Look like Kueh Lapis...

Anyways... Happy Birthday, Darling! =)

I'm lazy

Since I'm lazy and hate house hold chores, I'm contemplating to get a part time helper to do the weekly chores.

Also, with hubby gone on ALL weekends for the next 7 weekends, I have to take over his share of chores as well and that will include, mopping, wiping the surfaces, washing of toilets and even possibly, ironing of his clothes.

So, yes, I'm contemplating part time help, then I can don't even need to do all these chores weekly. The market rate is like $10 per hour, so if it's 5 hours weekly, that will work out to be almost $200 on a 5 hour rate per month.

Should we invest in that? Would our finances be able to cover that now that since hubby is studying and need to pay for his school fees? Would I be able to take over the costs of this additionally?

But I really hated doing all these chores. If hubby was to do with me together, I don't mind it so much, but now that he's not here and I got to do everything, just the thought of it is daunting!

Or should I just bear with it for the next few weeks since that's all the time that hubby needs to go for his bridging courses and then weekends will pretty much be back to the same?

So now the crux is should I be lazy and am I willing to pay for my laziness?!

2nd Anniversary

Celebrated our 2nd wedding anniversary on 30 Sep, 1 day before the actual day since I had lessons last night.

We went to Waraku in Central for our meal. Being the sotong me, I actually made reservations at the Japanese branch and end up at the Pasta branch. Which is just as well since Hubby don't really like Japanese food.

We took a set, which conists of salad, soup, mini pizza, pasta and a glass of wine. =) I like their pizza. Thin and crispy, almost like biscuit kind. Very nice. Hubby had Gratin. Which is quite good too! But I think the best of all is their dessert, Tiramisu with ice cream and chocolate sauce. I'm not a fan of Tiramisu. But this one is really good. Soft and creamy! We thought we were eating cream instead of cake!

Gave him the present I bought, the Titus Watch which he was aiming at for awhile and he was soo happy to receive it.

He really looked like a small boy eagerly unwrapping the present. hehehe...

Yesterday as usual, he'll come to the bus stop to fetch me home and he had a bouquet of roses for me! Nice. I like. (Somehow hor, after marriage, hubby is beginning to buy me flowers lei. I used to not even see a single stalk when we were dating! It's so different as compared to other women who complain that their husbands don't give flowers after marriage but plenty when dating. Mine is the complete opposite!)

Then another surprise awaited me... he bought me a flashing Mario Brother. hahaha... Mario Bro is my FAVOURITE game when I was a kiddo. Now it's coming back and there are times when I feel like getting a Ninetendo just so that I can play Mario Bros. hahahaha I love those colourful mushrooms that's being sold in Action City now too lei!

It was a simple celebration for us. One that we enjoyed and I guess that's the most important. =)A montage of photos taken. Mostly of the food and presents. There's a few shots of hubby too and none of me individually coz I'm the one holding the camera ma. =P

Happy Children's Day

Happy Children's Day to those young at heart =) but more importantly,

Happy Anniversary to Darling!

We celebrate our 2nd year wedding anniversary today too!

Won't have much of a celebration today coz I'll be having lessons tonight. =( So, we celebrated early, went out for a nice dinner yesterday already.

Not much choice la, with the part time studies, celebrations and everything else takes a backseat, all our schedule revolves round my timetable for the time currently. In a few more days to come, our schedules will revolves round OUR lesson timetables too!
