Who say you can’t have it good and cheap..?? these croissants were a buck, frozen and baked fresh in our oven and eating with real butter.  Heavens..!!  And what more..?? i didn’t even have to roll them. .the man did it.

We don’t usually get real butter and in fact haven’t had it for a long time.. more than a few years.  But the man fancies it once in a while.. .so we are enjoying our real butter.  But having said that.. butter or margarine is no biggie to me.. i’ll make do even if i donch have it.  Unlike my food for home.. i probaby will kill for it..?? hahaha!! joking.

After that storm that snowed us in.. we went back to work.. to collect some stuff at the post office.. from last week.  We didn’t get to collect it.. because the weather was just too bad.  What an awesome surprised to receive a package of food gift all the way from Australia and from a blogging friend.  These bloggers are so wonderful.. and selfless.. they are so kind hearted and generous.   I have to send something back to her .. but what can i get her..??  something for her two gals.. i think.

Pretty cool.. a blue lobster .. but would you eat it..?? i won’t .. heheheh!! i know it is alright.. but still i would feel quite wierd.. to eat a blue lobster.  I wonder what color it would turn out to be .. when it is cooked..??  Hope someone can tell me.. and i’m sure .. they donch taste any difference.. because the blue color come off from having some kinda pigmentation .. i read it somewhere.

I had this with curry sent from Malaysia from a good blogging buddy/friend.. it was bliss ..!! and even though it was naan .. it tasted like roti prata.. so it was super cool.. just not as fluffy as Roti-prata from home.  But beggars can’t be choosers  right..??

A second fruit cake.. and it’s still bad.  No way am I wasting my calories.. for bad food.  Thanks but no thanks..!!  hate it when you get bad food.. and have to return it.  Seems so petty.. but darn these freaking cakes ain’t cheap at all.  About 6 bucks + taxes. .and it’s dryer than my skin.. so you can imagine how bad it is.  I couldn’t chew it.

I do love sandwiches.. but there is only so much one can eat RIGHT..?? on a daily basis. I have a piece for breakfast.. and another piece for supper.. i think the other meals can do without sandwiches right..?  But what else can one eat in this town..??   not very much to choose from if you asked me..  *sigh* ..  when can i go home..??  these sandwiches donch sux.. but i definitely don’t want to eat them everyday.

Kari ! Kari..!! to many folks from home.. this means nothing.. but to someone who is 28,000km away from home.. this is a Gem ..!! gold..!! Send from Asia with love and plenty of kind thoughts by a blogging buddy.  What more can one asked of a good friend..??  nothing else.  God bless her heart..!!

Went to order my daughter’s birthday cake and saw this very pretty old fashioned strawberry cake that i would love to have for my birthday when i was a kid.  But truth be told.. we never celebrated mine.. when i was a kid.  Nope ..! not once..! and you heard me right.  Because gals ain’t important.

Kid’s bingo like this one i definitely approve .. and not the ones that Mickey D’s birthday party had for the kids.  They don’t quite understand the concept of bingo.. but still they had fun.  But to think that they only had 2 person hosting the party… now that was silly.  She couldn’t even do much.. and her helper.. well.. lets just say.. i rather not have her there.
