sunday laziness

French toast, dragonfruit and apple

Happy Mother’s Day!

all that pandan cake

3 p.m. breaks has been around for about 4 years now and i suddenly have this thought of whether i’ve incidentally took any images that might be exactly the same. Well, not so much as in 100% exact but based on the probability of the same type of food and crockery used at the same time, it is possible. And so i did a search for today’s break, pandan cake, on 3 p.m. breaks.

There they are, a total of 12 pandan cake breaks since 2009, some plates or mugs are the same but they are never the exact combination. Good to know that i haven’t been repeating myself. Yet.

colour blocks

Pandan cake, coffee

i’ve been eating more than before recently... but i think that’s because i’m exercising a lot more now and not that i am being gluttony... ok but why does it sounds like i’m trying to convince myself?

small plates

Biscuits with spam, guava, mango

And i also had coffee after this :)

big bite

Char siew and red bean paste steamed buns, ginger tea

These handmade mini buns near army market are indeed quite yummy!

coffee beans

Butter toast, coffee

Friday evening lined up: shoe shopping, yoga class, dinner appointment. 

Have a wonderful weekend ahead everyone!

Oh and i need to remember to get some good coffee beans, had enough of this 2-in-1 coffee. 

36ºC

French toast, coffee

So hot today i thought i was going to faint from the heat just now.

blogging

Tuna toast, pear, coffee

i’ve been thinking of my much neglected (other) blog recently and thought maybe i should start updating again now that i’m not that busy. One of the reasons why i stop updating was also because Blogger once again changed their template/setting and messed up my layout. i was contemplating whether to migrate to some other blogging website then and ended up stop blogging totally.

It’s been 5 months since i last updated but i have no idea where to start... and i know the longer i put it off the more difficult it will be to pick up again. Well, we’ll see...

40 pieces

Mini peng kueh (glutinous rice kueh), tea with milk

And 40 pieces of packed chwee kueh for a gathering later.

last year

Chips, chee cheong fun (steamed rice roll) with pork floss and chilli, coffee

Finally did my accounting (i have no choice since income tax filing deadline is very near) and realised that i only worked for about 6 months or less in total last year, mostly from June onwards. Meaning i had been busy with a lot of non-work stuffs. How fun!

another month

Butter toast, coffee

How is it possible that it’s already April?

pretz

Ham and cheese bun, coffee

Love this nostalgic packaging from Japan. Aww childhood memories...

mood swing

Scones with butter and jam, coffee

i can’t decide if i’m happy or bored with thing around me recently. i can be all happy in the morning then extremely dull at night. Arrghh what’s wrong with me?

greedy rooster

Banana chocolate cake, camomile tea

one a penny two a penny...

Hot cross bun, coffee

“Hot cross buns! Hot cross buns!
One a penny two a penny, hot cross buns
If you have no daughters, give them to your sons
One a penny two a penny, hot cross buns”

How many of you sang this song when in nursery? i probably didn’t understand... or didn’t bother to think about the meanings for half of the songs that were taught then. Anyway, many of the nursery rhymes have strange lyrics (especially the chinese ones). For example this song, does it mean that if i have daughters, then the sons won’t get to eat it? Or why can’t i eat the buns myself, or give them to my grandma or my friends instead? 

Alright ignore me, i was just spouting nonsense and i blame it on my headache.

i just googled this song and guess what? It says on Wikipedia: “this song is performed to summon satan”. 
Yeah you’re right.
