The Final Countdown!

Finally! All these weeks of relentless work, meetings, presentations, reports, conference calls with a mix of endless house hunting, viewings, bank appointments, putting offers in and the wait for acceptances, which comes with high hopes, disappointment and of course joy when we finally got the place we wanted, solicitor meetings, , renovation project drawings and planning, meetings with builder and kitchen planner... finally we are off on holiday!

The next 12 days with NONE of the above! Though we will still have to coordinate the exchange and complete the purchase of the new place while we are away but it shouldn't be as bad as the last 6 weeks. It will be again crazy work time when we return especially leading up to Christmas and if all goes well, we might even be moving in just before Christmas! You know us... never do things by halves. That's what holiday is for! Though I've to say, D was definitely more keen of this break than I do. I can sure do with more time to be around and plan everything else.

But anyhow, if we can do all these together without killing each other (dramas we had the last few weeks were too silly to blog), we should be alright. We will be fine :-)

So Japan and Koh Samui here we come!

My Sister's Keeper


I knew it might be trouble picking this movie to watch on my flight to NYC recently, especially when I'm travelling with my clients. Everyone was asleep in their flatbeds after the dinner service so I thought why not.

Half way through the movie, water works start! I must have scared the flight attendant away when he came over to offer me drinks. My eyes were swollen after landing and my clients were all very concern. Dry cabin and didn't sleep well I said.

Go watch! :-)

Something I Did Earlier

Oops I Did It Again!

Raspberry cupcake with vanilla icing and chocolate cupcake with chocolate icing. Came across this place by chance while shopping along Bleecker Street. It was simply heaven! You sink your teeth into the soft and moist cupcake with the smooth silky icing covering your upper lip. It was beyond description!

All I can say is... if it's good enough for Carrie, it's good enough for me!
