A drool worthy SUV ...

I THINK I've been behind one or two of these vehicles here on our roads .. but I'm not sure. I remember seeing the words "Cayenne" on the back .. but nothing else .. there was no marque.

Yesterday, I was watching Eagle Eye on dvd and finally identified it - it was a Porsche Cayenne ...

wa, it's beautiful. LOL :)

My new Coach bag ...



I think it's just lovely!!

Doughnuts, oops I meant HUBBY came home today !!!





And just lookie what he brought back with him ... yes, Krispy Kreme doughnuts .. straight from Dallas, Texas .. and hand carried on American Airlines then SIA all the way to Singapore .. (nevermind that these doughnuts spent 28 hours travelling from the US to here .. )

LOL. I TOLD the man not to bother .. we would have the doughnuts later at the end of this year when we go to the US on holiday (hopefully) but nooooo, the man was still sweet enough to bring back for us :)

He also brought back a ton of things for his girls ... yay, I got a really nice Coach bag from him .. :)
Really happy to have him back home .. ahhh yes, as I am typing this now .. I can hear the familiar light snoring right next to me (the computer's at his side of the bed .. lol)

And yes, dear neighbour, had you still been living in Blk 5, I would've gladly shared the doughnuts with you ... share the calories, mah .. so I don't put on weight ALONE .. hehehe.

My baby and I ..



yea yea yea .. u can't really see my baby properly .. I KNOW. I was just happy with the way I LOOKED in this photo .. I am terribly unphotogenic .. took me YEARS to be ok about being in photos .. so I was surprised to see this photo turn out ok :)

This was taken with my Samsung Omnia .. it's one of the better photos I've taken with it. Unfortunately, while I really love my Omnia to bits (plus it's RED so I love it even more) .. the camera kinda SUCKS (well, to me it does)

Especially the flash .. the photos ALWAYS come out overexposed and washed out. It's AWFUL. So I've permanently switched off the flash and take all my photos without it.

The camera may be 5 megapixels but I SWEAR my 3 megapixel Nokia N73 took so much better photos.

hubby is away ...

and yes, when the man is away ... I miss him loads .. when he's here, I sometimes feel like strangling him.

lol. Such is love.

He's in the States right now for work .. he has been away for a week now. He'll be back on Monday. Hope he remembered to get my perfume and my Coach handbag. Oh yeah, the poor man was given a list of things to buy before he left.

I sure hope he didn't buy me a WHITE handbag. I don't understand WHY he keeps buying me WHITE handbags .. hasn't he noticed that I don't carry WHITE handbags? My friend says maybe that's because he thinks since you don't have WHITE handbags .. he should buy u some. huh. That actually makes sense .. lol. So this time, I specifically told him .. no WHITE handbags, no BLUE handbags, no GREEN handbags .. I'm ok with brown, black and red.

Yes, in case you're wondering, he has so far bought me TWO white handbags. I haven't used either one.

This is what I want ...


Ain't it just beautiful? .. It's the Honda Crossroad .. and yes, it is a 7 seater ... but it looks way cooler than a regular MPV ... Hubby saw me ogling one in our carpark and asked me whether I wanted to trade ours in and get that ..
I think I nearly fainted when he said that ... He asked me to call up the Honda showroom to see if they had it and whether we could go down for a testdrive ..
Turned out Honda doesn't bring it in ..
Lol. It's a parallel import ...
DAMN .. hubby isn't keen on parallel imports cos of some horror stories he's read in the papers about them ..
too bad for me .. there goes Crossroad then .. *sigh*

My blardy hubby ...

2 days ago, hubby came home and after he had changed etc, he wandered into the kitchen to ask what we were having for dinner ..

Upon hearing that we had made this particular chicken dish that he didn't like ... he said. "Haiyah .. why that chicken dish? I don't like it" .. Of course I already knew he didn't like it ... this wasn't the first time I had prepared this particular dish and this also wasn't the first time he had expressed his dislike for it .. but the REST of us were fine with it ... and since I WAS THE BOSS in the kitchen ... my answer was .. "too bad .. just eat - the girls all like it and so do I (and my maid)" I also threw in a "Don't be PICKY!" at him ...

My blardy hubby ... looked pointedly at me and said cheekily ... "eh, you call me PICKY??? If I had been picky ......."

hahaha ... I have known the man for almost 20 years .. I KNEW WHAT HE WAS SAYING without him SAYING it ..

I hooted with laughter and replied ... "Too bad ... married already ... 4 kids ... IT'S TOO LATE to change your mind AND BE PICKY" ..

hahahhahahahah !!!

My hubby has strange ideas on what passes for fun ...

Did I tell you that we went to the science centre on the first day of CNY to see the solar eclipse? Yup, uncle thought it would be educational for the kids instead of always ending up at the mall .. so there we were .. all 8 of us .. yes, EIGHT ... he dragged HIS poor non-English probably don't know and don't give a rat's ass about the eclipse 67 year old Teochew speaking mother along with us after the CNY lunch at the airport ... lol. Now, I went to school and did science in secondary school and pre-u, and I don't give a hoot about the solar eclipse ... what more HIS MOTHER??!!

True enough, she had absolutely no clue what an eclipse was ... I think hubby had problems even finding the Chinese words for "solar eclipse" ..


hahahahahah !!

So there we were at the blardy Science Centre with my MIL ... 4 kids, my maid (who also doesn't give a hoot about the eclipse) and it was a long long queue. I was really surprised. Mind you, it was the 1st day of the CNY .. the vast majority of the people in the queue were Chinese .. er, was I wrong or were they supposed to visit their parents on that first day of the New Year? .. lol.

The minute Calista started fussing .. I scuttled off with her to look for a bench to sit on and nurse her ... and then I immediatedly sms-ed my hubby and told him that I wasn't interested in the solar eclipse and that to come look for me once they were done.

sigh.
