Night Out for Joselyn's Farewell

Ooh delayed post for last Saturday 15 Nov.

Afternoon there was a Sisterhood with Christine Caine at the Emmanuel Centre. Joined some girls for lunch at Nandos before making out way down to the centre. I think it was the first time I heard Chris Caine and I thought it was a good session. It was so nice of the girls to distribute home made heart shaped cookies to everyone during the break :)

After service, I met Joselyn, Cynthia, Alicia and Jianliang for dinner at Chocolate Factory before going to this recommended club called Hoxton Pony at Old Street where another of Jos' friend joined. We all didn't really like this place so after finishing two bottles of white wine, they decided we shld join Eric, Gin n their friends at Embassy as they were celebrating Gin's birthday there as well.

dinner @ Choc Factory


Whoa what a crowd at Embassy. This is an expensive club coz cover was GBP20 with no drinks somemore! But then yea have to admit it was much better than Hoxton Pony (Alicia said she's gonna scold her colleague for his "recommendation".) So in the end there was a huge group of us... were there till the club closed and by the time we got out, it was almost 4am. Everyone was trying to get taxis home and omg when we reached home it was 5am. Obviously everyone was so super zombiefied the next day.

NJC people unite! yea, I felt so left out :( they made me the photographer

on the way to Embassy; Alicia looks very very happy

expensive Mojitos


Oh well, all for Joselyn.. we are all gonna miss having her around!

Murder Mystery Dinner Party

Two Saturdays ago we were invited to the Kim's for a themed dinner, specifically a Murder Mystery dinner party.  What is that, you might ask.  It was our first time attending such a dinner too, and so how it works is: a group of people attend a dinner party.  Each is assigned a role and will be given a script to read that night.  The aim of the party is to identify a murderer in the midst of us by the end of the night.  The hosts would work off a dinner game set (they got it off Amazon) and it comes with proper invites, setting/ scene, table name cards, scripts and even a suggested menu.  Clearly RX is an Agatha Christie fan. Two weeks beforehand, we received our invites in the postbox, telling us what roles we each have been assigned and the suggested attire (and props if necessary).  Interesting yes? The dinner was to start at 7pm and we were to have 8 people that night.  It's all very mysterious… Our invitation cards assigned K the...

Cooking mee pok dry | bak chor and fishball noodles

When I touched down at Changi airport a few weeks ago, I was very hungry and K suggested grabbing a quick bite at the food court.  I immediately went for the queue at the bak chor (minced pork) noodles stall.  This one dish is very local and we simply can't find it here.  London's Chinatown has a few Malaysian restaurants with fried kway teow, chicken rice, laksa, etc but there is no authentic fishball noodles or minced pork noodles. When my friend Corinne shared this link last week, I was intrigued and I didn't know K was too.  He suggested going to the Asian supermarket on Sunday to get the necessary ingredients.  We found Dodo fishballs from Singapore here - what a win!  Unfortunately the mee pok (yellow, flat noodles) is of a darker shade here and tastes slightly different (maybe a different type of wheat?).  We found fishcakes too. http://delishar.com/2015/12/fishball-noodles-mee-pok-tah.html This is a healthier version of the hawker center'...

Memories made at Danson Park

I can't believe I still have readers to this dormant blog!  Thank you for coming back again :) In case you didn't know, our little family of four actually flew back to the UK together for the first time last November.  For me, I've been back twice with Izzy, and poor Gabriel kept asking when could he go back to London.  Finally K said we should take the trip together and also drive around northern France, our fav area to visit.  Well fav, in that it is very easy to get to from the UK and we have really grown to like the more rural parts of Brittany. I grabbed the chance to contact Joanne, who took some photos of the kids previously.  In fact I think she has seen my kids grow up, from taking Christmas photos to family photos. We were pressed for time and I had to do some convincing for K to agree to do this shoot... looking at the photos, glad i insisted on doing it.  More to document kids growing up well.. and us growing old  I plan to blog more about ...
