THe Birthday Cupcake Test

The Birthday Cupcake Test - I chose my favourite green colour. :) Fairly close to the truth. :)

You Are Well Grounded

You are a people person and very community oriented. You never forget where you come from. You notice how people react and behave accordingly. You want to make everyone feel comfortable. You have an intricate and accurate memory. In fact, you wish you were able to forget some things. You dislike working with theories. You are more concerned with the practicalities of life.

Sweets

Here are the photos of Zen Q desserts and the mini cupcakes from House of Mini. :) My girls love them. :)

House of Mini

I saw House of Mini when I was at Yew Tee Point and just couldn't resist buying the mini donuts for my RAs. I initially wanted to buy the mini cupcakes because they were so CUTE!! But I was so lost in what to choose that I gave up lol. :P (no pics of the donuts because I didn't have my camera with me)
However, here are some photos of the mini cupcakes! My RAs were so enthralled with the mini donuts that they went to Jurong Point where there is another House of Mini branch haha. :P They went nuts and bought three boxes of mini cupcakes (each box of 6)! :P



House of Mini is on Facebook too. Log in to find out more about their mini donuts and mini cupcakes.

Rain, Lightning and Thunder and ...Cupcakes

Before I went to sleep this morning close to 3:30am, I noticed the sky was cloudy and it was tinged red. My mother taught us that it meant a storm was coming. True enough, around 4am or my side of the island at least, it started to rain heavily. The pounding of the rain soon lulled me to sleep. (After all, it was really late. My sympathies to SA who was then still working in his office ALONE!) Soon after, flashes of lightning and claps of thunder followed.

But it was not the bright flashes or the loud rumblings which woke me up slightly after 4:30am. You know how sometimes you suddenly become very alert for no rhyme or reason. That was what happened to me. It was all dark in the room and suddenly, with a flash of lightning, I saw a pair of eyes staring at me! It was Juliane. Hahaha. It's a good thing that I'm into horror, supernatural and such so my heart is of stronger mettle. Hahaha. She was waken up by the thunder, not because she was scared of the thunder but that it was too noisy! I got her back to sleep again amidst the flashes and rumblings but she would only sleep if I covered her ears with my hands so that she wouldn't hear the thunder. So I am her ear muffler. Hahaha. Several times, thinking she was asleep, I slowly withdrew my hands but she pulled my hands back over her ears. Sheesh, talk about being a light sleeper. Thought I am bad enough as a light sleeper, she is worse. Hahaha.

We met up with a friend, Hoon for brunch/ lunch at The Marmalade Pantry, Palais Renaissance. It is one of our favourite food haunts. You have to make bookings or you have to wait for quite a while, espcially for the Sunday Brunch. It is quite popular with both expats and locals alike. The food is yummy and the dessert, especially, the cupcakes (the Pantry is famous for their cupcakes)... simply speechless. Yes, you can tell I have a sweet tooth. Both Hoon and my husband ordered the so-called breakfast set which allowed them to mix and match. They both had Scrambled eggs, Pork sausages, Toast, but with a different side dish of Sauteed mushrooms and Baked beans respectively. Marieann had the kid's set of Scrambled eggs, Sausage, Toast and Fries. Juliane had Penne with Broccoli, Ham and Cheese. I had the Linguini with Crabmeat, Tomato and Pinenuts. There was supposed to be chili in the linguini but since I don't take chili, I asked the chef to remove it. :) The food was simply great! For desserts, the girls had their Cloud Nine cupcakes and the adults shared a Sticky Date Toffee Pudding with Vanilla Bean Ice-cream and Sticky Date Pie slice, accompanied with 2 coffee for Hoon and my husband, and a mint tea for me. It was Delicious and Sweet! We packed four cupcakes to go. Go try this place, if you have the time.
