meat and veg

Sliced liver and pork with green vegetable soup.

dessert soup

Green bean soup and assorted nuts mooncake.

back to toast

Mithais (leftover from today’s shoot) are pretty to look at, but i much prefer toast and coffee for my afternoon break. 

No, thank you :-)

leftovers

Lapis sagu, ondeh-ondeh and ang ku kueh. 

These colourful snacks are leftovers from the shoot today. Having only slept 4 hours last night, i am so tempted to take a nap now. i’ve been working very long hours recently in order to meet a deadline in 5 days time... correction, 4.5 days. Help!

something spicy

Toast with curry chicken tastes like roti prata minus the oil. Yum!

kiwi thief

Swiss roll, coffee, kiwi and the toddler who can’t wait.

he talks about running

Raspberry jam with butter toast and coffee.

Current reads: What I talk about when I talk about running by Haruki Murakami

i am so going back to my running regimen. i am sure i can.

bettys

i had totally forgotten about this tea (Bettys Tea Room Blend) from York till my niece pulled it out from the cupboard.

(The toddler’s idea of fun was to pull everything out from the cupboard and threw them on the floor. Everyday.)

last bite

Saving the last bite for the shoot before it’s all gone.

The haze is not only burning my eyes and causing me headache, it has also added bodyache to the list since morning. And now, my stomach is bloated and i’m starting to feel nauseous.

a hazy late-lunch/early-break

My favourite sparkling water and fillet-o-fish.

My eyes are feeling extremely uncomfortable due to the haze, making it very difficult to work. After running some errands – helped mum to replace her ezlink card, buy groceries (actually it’s more of junk food) and a bottle of eyedrop, i came back home with a slight headache.

timely reminder

My highly sensitive stomach never fails to remind me that it’s time to take a break no matter how busy i am.

no fuss raisin toast

Crisp bread crust, sweet raisins, lightly salted margarine. Purrrfect.

blowing in the wind

Cheesy french toast, lettuce and coffee.

The rain had just stopped. Standing next to the window, my hair danced in the cool breeze. I took a deep breath. It’s a lovely day.

birthday vermicelli

Mum had forgotten that it’s her birthday today till we reminded her during lunch, so i suggested vermicelli soup for afternoon break instead.

The traditional practice is to have it for breakfast on your birthday.

090909

Raisin toast, banana and coffee.

i only realised today is 09.09.09 while watching the news earlier – the day everyone rushed to get married. Is it really an auspicious date? Or just because it’s easy to remember? Somehow, it reminds me of the number 999 instead – Emergency! Help!
