Farewell, 2011

It has been a really exciting last day of 2011 for us.
Today we celebrated Marieann's 10th birthday in advance because on her actual day, 2nd January, time is a bit tight for we have a wedding dinner to attend.
Marieann invited two classmates to join in her birthday celebration. We - Marieann, her two classmates, Juliane and I went to a soap making workshop. I had fun making my soaps and so did the girls. After the workshop, we had lunch at Sakae Sushi, requested by the girls lol.

Our soaps - mine the pink ones, Marieann the light purple ones, and Juliane the dark purple ones :)

After her classmates left in mid afternoon, we went to get more boxes from Plaza Singapura lol. :P When we were done, it was just after 5pm. We decided to have dinner out instead of at home. Again, we did not make any reservation for dinner but decided to try our luck at Raffles City. We decided to have dinner at Skinny Pizza. Juliane and I shared a Sweet Corn Crab soup ($6). We ordered a Smoked Turkey Swiss pizza ($25) and a Squid Ink Paella ($18) to share for the family because Marieann was still quite full from lunch. The super thin crispy pizza was really delicious and did not leave one with the usual uncomfortable, heavy feeling of having food too rich. :) The paella was tasty too, right amount of seasoning and the ingredients generous. :)



It was almost 8pm when we reached home. There is still time for some final packing haha. :P All packing completed an hour before the stroke of midnight! :)

Farewell, 2011!
