Cupcakes and Wedding Sweets

This is the last weekend to get the outstanding items that Marieann needs for her Primary 5 Camping trip this coming Monday to Wednesday. She is still missing a few items on the list. The three of us, mother and daughters, set off for Isetan Scotts in the late morning. Marieann managed to buy the remaining items on her list and Juliane also managed to get her new pair of Crocs as her current pair was slightly too small for her. With our shopping done, we headed over to Far East Plaza for our Yakitori Bento lunch at our usual haunt, Nanbantei Japanese Restaurant. We didn't make a reservation but we were able to get a table which we needed to vacate by 1.30pm. Not a problem, we were done with our lunch by 1pm lol. :P Yes, we were that hungry. :) 
After lunch, we walked around a bit to digest our full stomachs. We were surprised to see a cute little cupcake shop amidst the ladies' fashion wear shops at Level One. We naturally veered towards the cupcake shop, TenEleven Cupcakes. We bought four cupcakes home to try - Keylime, Matcha, Carrot & Walnut, and Chocolate Brownie. They were yummy! And surprisingly not too sweet! :)
In the evening, we attended my family friend's daughter's wedding at Four Seasons Hotel. It was a wonderful gathering for me as I managed to catch up with our family friends as well as my SCGS classmate whom I forgot is a cousin to our family friend's daughter lol. The speeches were really good too. :) But the highlight of the whole wedding dinner/ banquet was the dessert for me haha. Great combination of sweet and refreshing - white chocolate mousse & crunchy royaltine and aloe vera & jelly flavoured with lemongrass. :)
By the time the wedding dinner ended (but the wedding party was still going on with the dancing), it was close to 11.30pm. We (my father, the girls' father and I) went home to find the girls still wide awake and watching tv! Oh well, they had finished their exams so they didn't get a scolding from me. :)
