Life goes on...

Sun May 2009

Yup, Life goes on...Life as is...

Another weekend is almost over. Another COD (Chef's Off Day) just passed yesterday.

Breakfast was the usual simple one...bought from our nearby wet market in the vicinity of the nearby shophouses. Roti Canai. It smelled nice this time around...

Around lunch time, Giant Hypermarket was the first to "receive" us. Ha ha! My favourite brew was on offer. So got a 200gm bottle @RM19.99. Also noticed new Van Houten chocs of the semi-sweet kind...in blocks & with whole roasted almonds! Yum yum...yup, me took home 2x100gm blocks!

Lunch was at our fav roasted chicken rice stall @ Jalan Telok Wanjah. Really fresh from the kuali. 2 drumsticks with extra meat @ RM10, with rice for two persons.

While cruising by Star Parade, we saw a sign indicating a special Thai fair being held there. Home could wait...it was so decided. The underground car park was kinda full but on scouting around, "some kind soul" left us an empty lot!

In the ground floor exhibition area, quite a number of booths were set up with a variety of Thai goods for sale. One particular item caught our attention. Ladies' accessories eg brooches & ear-rings made from FISH SCALES! How ingenuous!! Bought a nice pinkish brooch for my other half @a reduced RM6 from RM7. Ha ha! Btw that brooch fit right onto her blouse like it was part of it...hehe....

By the time we reached home, it was almost tea time. More of siesta time. But one food item we bought while at Star Parade was practically "screaming" at us! Yup, it was a packet of Thai durian!! OMG! Those were purely fragrant & delicious. All fears of diabetic consequences were thrown into the wind! Ha ha again! However, we were still cautious enough not to finish all that was in the pack of durian. Half of it was kept in the fridge...supper?

Being kinda full, dinner was delayed. Instead a pre-dinner walkabout in AS Mall was suggested by our "boss" of the day. And yup, it was to kinda work up an appetite for dinner.

We adjourned for dinner just opposite the Mall. At the food court. Fish Meat Beehoon soup & Fried Koay Teow. Both dishes ended up being a mite too much though. Leftovers were evident.

Cine Nite started @abt 9pm. Movie was the recent "Love Affair" by Jack Neo. Very enjoyable. And like most of his other movies, the story line was witness of what could happen in the lives of real life people.

And yup, me almost forgot! Remember, the rest of the durian pack that was kept in the fridge earlier? Yup, that lot was finished before the show was over!! That's right...supper! Phew!

Like all other days & nights, another good day & a pleasant evening had to end. Bed soon called.

Today, Lot 10 is back to its mood of peaceful slumber? Not really. More of back to my still "new" lappy...haha!
