Our New Wkend Routine...

It was by chance that I discovered this "vintage indian" makan place not so long ago, for some inexplicable reason the place just kinda warms me on the inside and the hustle & bustle of the restaurant is very nostalgic.. maybe its the ceramic tiles, maybe its the glass-paned windows, it may even be the dull-pink coloured walls.. but something about this place just clicks with the ah-chek in me. (^_^)

So kittywifey and I had "adopted" this place as our saturday-brunch place. I would highly recommend the white rice set w/ chicken masala & Kittywifey's favourite paper-thosai. Everyone eats with their hands here and I can already imagine bringing my BB Kitty to this place when she's grown.. keke.. but think cannot let her sit on their kiddy-ride.. cause the music that comes out is Classic Indian-Pop Hits! LOL!

There's plenty more on the menu that we had not tried though, am not gonna divulge the exact whereabouts so that those that are interested can go hunt for yourselves. hee. They serve really good teh-tarik too!

We had always driven there but we decided to take public transport there last sat so that we can venture around little India, we deliberately walked the inner parts of little india (away from the main streets) and were pleasantly enchanted by the colors of shops, and even bollywood pop music that were being played in the lesser-exposed areas! There were art galleries and dance studios and the sights and sounds made us felt like we were abroad.. nice!

3 satisfied Customers!!!

So maybe we will see some friends there on saturdays? haa.. if any of u guys/girls do visit the place let us know what you had tried so if its any bleh u'll save us from ordering it and hence earn the title of "true-friend"! =P

first overseas trip for 3. Hee

Kittywifey and I decided to take a short break and took off to Nusa Dua, Bali one week after her first trimester. We've never been to Bali before and it's been awhile since we took a break overseas and this will be BB's first flight (technically)! haa..

We took Garuda airlines as SQ has no seats on the flight back and we've to say the flight there was not as good as the flight back. Encountered a really blur (senior)stewardess on the flight there but the return flight were full of professional ones. so overall Garuda wasn't as bad as we thot it wld be.

We "HEART" Nusa Dua! it is peaceful, quiet and the hotel that Kittywifey chose was great! And because of a divine delay in our arrival flight, by the time we arrive at the hotel (1130pm) the on-duty manager upgraded us from a sea-view room to a sea-view suite!! the suite is so huge like x5times our flat! haa.. praise God!

We made a deliberate effort to do nothing for this trip and just spent most of our time relaxing at the beach and pool, we did muster the adventurous spirit in us and went off to Kuta one evening.. sorry to Kuta fans,,, we didn't like the place at all... it was all too cluttery and we find ourselves constantly comparing it to patong beach and we find ourselves missing the latter more and more as we soldier-on and walked down the stretches of Kuta...


Wifey reading her "shopaholic" book and showing off her sexylegs.. =)

Which brings me to my next rant.. Phuket pple > Bali pple.

Not that we met any crooks *actually one airport shop charge me extra for mineral water by hiding behind the counter & tearing off the price tag and another offered to drag our luggage at the collection area thn asked us for $ (-_-)~ * and generally Bali pple are nice and all but somehow you feel that the sincerity level is not there, and the megawatt smile that they give to you is not of the hospitality kind but more of a monetary "hope you give fat tips" kinda feeling. Hope I've not offended anyone but that's just the way it was for me.

We enjoyed the trip but Kittywifey had food-poisoning on the day we were supposed to fly back to S'pore, got me really worried (Kitty puke count for whole day = 8 times) and we had to see the hotel doc, admist all of the worries we confessed of her wholeness in Christ and she was fine and well by the time we got back to S'pore at around 1am. =)

P.S: we now know why ang-mohs always order drinks without ice, cause they make ice cubes from their tap water and that's where the contamination lies. =P


Wifey had to wait for 8hours at the hotel before our flight back, so it was tough for her but she still managed to stay glam! haa.. (above pic is her napping aft 6th bleh-ing...)

Looking back, the time we had was fantastic for the most parts & the sunshine was accompanied by the most valiant of sea breezes you can imagine, and though we were glad to come back, we would definitely think of visiting Nusa Dua again..

Bye Bye!!

P.S: We found some stone monkey statues round the hotel and decided to take a series of pics with them (hope u can tell who's the monkey), Enjoy!

note to kittywifey: though its unlikely we can travel before the start of your 3rd tri, but I promise I'll bring you for a deserved break next year when our princess is more settle oki? =D

The reason for our Hiatus..

Its been awhile since we blogged on this post, and there is a perfectly good reason Y.

Brace yourselves folks.. its because.. KittyWifey's Preggie!!! =D

hee.. she's been perfectly preggi for about 18th-week this week and apologies to all friends that have been kept in the dark so loong but its just that we were just waiting for a right time to break the Good news. hee.

for all the common questions that u may wanna know, here's the low down. (read b4 u start calling us hor. haa)

1. When is the expected delivery date?

16 November 2008

2. Gender?

Princess

3. When was the "manufacturing" moment?

dun really noe e exact time, but an advice to all guys who are trying, maybe bak-kwa will make ur lil swimmers stronger. haa..

4. How's mummy doing throughout e pregnancy so far?

Great! no morning sickness, and absolutely nothing negative is happening. Praise God for the truths that we know about supernatural pregnancy and I know my wife is going to have a wonderful journey. Even her fav past-time, sleep, or desire to sleep has been multiplied!! haa.. She just konked throughout and no more early mornings for daddy and no late night cravings.. God is Good... =D

5. Did mummy put on alot of weight?

Nope, currently just put on bout 3kg, which is good. Our target is 10kg for the entire pregnancy period.

6. Did daddy put on alot of weight?

Nope, Daddy was NEVER fat to begin with.

7. Mummy has any special cravings??

hmmm... no lei... but she developed a heightened sense of smell, like kena biohazard material become superheroine, can now smell the faintest scent.. so top of her list of "bleh" smell is "MSG smell" (Dun ask me i dunno what's that too)

She hated sweet stuff during the first 8 weeks but now ok liao. =)

8. Does mummy still look underaged?

yes. just got "inviting stares" from economic rice ah-bengs again 2 days ago. haa... apparently ah-bengs dun really care about round bellys huh? =p

9. Does mummy still look gorgeous?

Of course! Yummy-mummy is an understatement for kitty wifey. see question 8.

10. Do we have a name for the BB??

95% sure of one but am not gonna tell u. =P

Have to say these few months had been a lil bit of an adventure. Every now & thn, when looking at our kooky-selves we really worried bout our ability to raise a kid while technically we're behaving like one when we're arnd each other. But am really looking forward to our blessed baby being born into our lives and the thought of being parents is just so overwhelmingly great that words can do no justice to it. God is in-charge of my household. =)

I have so much things and thoughts I wanna say (its been accumulated for 4 mths) but I dun wanna make this a whiny post, so just gonna let you have a sneak preview of our Blessed BB!!
