farewells

The Flagstaff Gardens is full of secrets late at night...

especially after yum cha sessions.

possums in sight.

On another note, Manuela had a little do at our place on the 23rd. A feast to celebrate her birthday and mourn her departure. Babe, you have been such a soulful joy to talk to.I'll miss you!


A glimpse of some of the food. MIA: German tiramisu, Vietnamese spring rolls (Hannah), Strawberry cake from Crown Cafe (courtesy of the guys). Fab dinner, filled to the brim. Ps- all HOME MADE.

Ladies lets go
Hannah from Vietnam, Vyanne, Me, Manuela the birthday girl



Cendrix from Vietnam, Jiyang, Ji from Thailand(who gave us beautiful Thai pants for souvenirs), Manuela from Germany.


...an international gathering of all sorts. Topics range from the infamous 'Black Forest' in Germany, Thai floating markets, Vietnamese spring rolls, an American who struck a $443million lottery but never collected it and hot deals at the Docklands apartments. Amusing bunch, and I think they made quite a good impression on both my housemates.

Treasures have arrived in small forms, but the impact- phenomenal. Housemates have been whipping up the best dishes, from nasi lemak to pancakes to muffins to desserts..while Aunty MoyLee sent an angel with inspirational verses all the way from Malaysia. Yes, I am counting my blessings.

hehe, and have i been cooking? The answer is a resounding YES!
