Singapore in August

Man I'm so lazy to blog...

Things I've been doing instead.

1. Working later cos of new cholesterol study
2. Watching old seasons of desperate housewives in the afternoon when I do get off work early
3. Surfing food web-sites and trying to find easy but impressive recipes
4. Do something about my Singapore wedding.. once again I'm lazy


BUT! I've redeemed myself, I'm flying back in August for 10 days to "work hard" on the Singapore wedding. This will include the "arduous task" of

1. Menu tasting a 10 course meal prepared by Hai Tian lou of pan pacific hotel
2. Shopping for a cheongsam/tea dress and evening gown
3. Shopping for the shoes to match
4. Choosing a theme for the wedding in October
5. Helping MOB to find her dress too!
6. Finding entertainment.
7. Entertaining my self assumed god-brothers at Figaro st!

Can't wait!

Ile De Pines


Got some lovely scenic shots of Ile De Pines.. 

Cocktails and native lady check us in 

Buggy to our bungalow
Our lovely bungalow

Complementary champagne


The Kanumear beach with its white powder like sand.. and clear waters... 
There was fish everywhere, no fear of human beings, swimming around our legs and toes. 

When we went snorkelling it was like swimming in an aquarium!
Ok i'm getting lazy


Buttermilk pancakes

Masterchef is good for my tummy... the husband gets inspired

Friday night's feature is Masterclass where the chef judges teaches the rookies some essential dishes. Last Friday was Ricotta and buttermilk hotcakes with carmelised apples..

OO yah! So Mr Rhodes wakes Mrs Rhodes up to go the Italian deli nearby where they buy buttermilk and fresh ! Ricotta.. its so good just cut out of a big ricotta cake instead of in the usual supermarket tub.

Anywayz... I got my reward, Mr Rhodes is enjoying a Saturday morning brekky cook off, I'm not  allowed to help, so I read my White tiger book.
