PhotoFunia

Notice recently that everyone is having fun at photofunia. It is a pretty simple to use site where you can place your photos on different background.

So I decided to give it a try with till date best pictures of my little darlings.


My little princess as Billboard Poster girl.

Now it's the turn for my little prince.

MacDonald Date with Prince Josh

Was arranging a meet up with Mummy when she mentioned how Prince Josh is interested in MacDonald's pancake. Hence, we arrange for a meet-up this morning with the little prince for breakfast.
Happy to see how the little guy is interested in the pancakes as well as the birds flying around. So I guess Jurong Bird Park will be welcoming another new member to the place. When little prince is happy, we are able to get nice pictures of him. So here we go:

Hey, something just flash at me?

Heehee. Mummy is making a funny noise.

One more shot of me.

Final handsome shot of me. Look out for more updates of me at my godma blog. Bye everyone.

New Recipe: Fried White Radish Cake

Someone from my office left the company and got each of us a departing gift. She notice that I have a slight interest in dim sum cooking and my family is vegetarian so she got me a vegetarian dim sum cookbook as farewell gift.

So I make the first attempt yesterday and below is the picture of the outcome:


All mixed up pretty easily and ready for the steam.


Looking good after the steam.

The final product - Looking good but not as attractive as the book but I guess it is good enough for family. So I will be starting mass production soon. Only feedback is it is rather bland so I just need to add more salt to it.
Look out for more dim sum and kuehs. heehee.

Marina Barrage

Due to work, my last weekend was burn again. Since i have to be part of the Clean & Green Singapore and the opening of the Marina Barrage as my boss wanted to support the government bodies. So the cheapest way is to feature our only hybrid model there to create awareness as well as garner some sales which we didn't achieve at all since it is the wrong crowd.

So to kill time and avoid burned under the hot sun, I toured the Marina Barrage, which is a pretty nice place for picnic and a place to oversee the night view of the CBD area.

Below are pictures of the place:
Exterior shot.
Inside marina barrage where u can see our Civic Hybrid.
The reservoir. One side is the clear water and the other side is the sea water.

Play area for the kids as well as water sports.

View from the rooftop. Scenery of the Singapore Flyer and CBD.

Gallery 1: Something New? It showcase the environmental challenges of today. It has this huge "organic tree" that symbolises the uncertain state of our present environment.

A huge wall fixture using plastic bottles.

Gallery 2: A river runs through it. It recounts the clean-up of the Singapore and Kallang Rivers.

Gallery 3: Water, Water Everywhere. Features the Active, Beautiful, Clean waters programme launched by PUB in 2007. You can even create the ideal waterways around our homes.
Gallery 4: The Marina Barrage. It details the intricate construction and operations of the dam. You can watch what happens when rain falls and water builds up behind the barrage.

Also came across this water wall.

Gallery 5: Small Country, Big Efforts. It features Singapore's careful planning and management of its limited land area to maximise its potential. This little cubes represents the different locations of Singapore.

Gallery 6: I Do. It displays an unwavering commitment from our 3P (people, Private and Public) sectors to care for the environment and water. It also allow you to take a picture and place your commitment to the wall.

See how the place transform in the night. The night view is pretty amazing but somehow my camera can't do a good job and justice to the place.

So if you are interested, you can drop by Marina Barrage at 260 Marina Way. It is open from 9am - 6pm (weekdays) and 10am - 8pm (weekends) and close on every Tuesday.

A date with Princess Clara

We have a date with Princess Clara on Deepavali for a sumptuous buffet spread at the Peony Jade Restaurant at Clarke Quay. This is also the restaurant where Princess Clara's parents hold their wedding dinner place a year ago. Imagine 1 yr +, there is already a new additional member.

During her pregnancy, the mummy was already craving for the food as it is really tasting and most importantly, it was pretty value for money considering the quality of food. Hence, if you are interested, i will highly recommend that you go for the lunch since they serve the same food but it will cost a few dollars more for its dinner. For more details on the buffet spread, visit their website: http://www.peonyjade.com/filemanager/Peony%20Jade%20New%20Buffet%20Menu.pdf

Look at the spread.... We had a count at the end of the lunch that we actually completed 20 dishes out of the 40 dishes that they offer.

Me and my little darling princess, who was very cooperative with us as we lunch from 11:30 - 2:30pm. Really such a doll to bring her out.

That's the princess with Auntie Karin who still wanted to be called jie jie. Girl, we have all upgraded to aunties. Heehee. Anyway our little princess really love to put her hand in her mouth. Wonder when we can cure her little bad habit.

Another shot with Aunty Karin. This time round no hands in the mouth.
