Sugar


The mini desserts looked so delicious that I succumbed to temptation and took one of each. Needless to say, they were sweet so I did not like them that much. Luckily I had two other persons sharing the food with me. Between the three of us, we managed to finish the whole lot and did not waste a morsel.

Lesson learned: never judge a dessert by its looks.

A pink lady

As pink is one of my favourite colours after red, I couldn't resist taking a photo of this car when I saw it. Even the rims are pink. The colour is so striking. The car really stood out among the other cars in the car park. I did not stay to find out who the driver is. Would you paint your car pink? Perhaps pink deters car thieves.

Reusing bottles

Lately I need to protect my toothbrush from house lizards / house geckos. I did not want to buy a toothbrush holder with a cover so I looked around my house to find materials that I could use to make one. In the end, I made one using two PET bottles and the lid of a small container.

I started off with two PET bottles (only one bottle is shown in the photo below), a small container and a scissors.

Cut each bottle into 2 parts. I only need the bottom part. Then cut a hole in the middle of the lid of the small container.

Result: a toothbrush holder with a cover. The lid of the small container holds the toothbrush in place inside the bottom part of the 1st bottle. The bottom part of the 2nd bottle acts as the cover.

2 & 2

I went to the following fiesta and saw 4 hot air balloons. The day was sunny and hot but it was cool and windy under the shady trees, just right for a nice walk. A good long healthy walk. Ended the day feeling tired but happy.

Helicopter ride is available too
Must be hot to be standing underneath the fire
A colourful one
Can you see the bridge?
This is as high as it gets
Pointer to the sky

1 & 1 only

This is the only soft toy that I have ever owned. When I was a child, I do have toys but not soft toys. I just don't fancy them. Then one day after a movie with my boyfriend (now husband), I saw this bear and felt that it looked like him so he bought it for me. And that was 20 years ago. This bear is still with me now because  I couldn't bear to throw it away. I am such a sentimental fool person.

Never again

Today I found out that I don't like nor want to eat fried food anymore. I used to love eating fish and chip but when I embark on a healthy eating journey recently, I stop eating fried food.

During lunch today, I suddenly decided to eat fish and chip in a cafe at a medical center where I was a visitor from 6.30am to 3.30pm and discovered that I no longer like to eat them. So no more fried food for me. Back to munching apples and greens.

Not my big breakfast (chicken ham) 25, banana muffin 6.75, flat white 9.5
Not my latte 11.50
My seabass fish and chip 32 halfway through (98.30)
