the boy came back on friday afternoon as the office went thru some movements due to fengshui. dun ask me how come the ang mos do this more than us. apparently this takes place once a yr in the agency. so we went furniture shopping over the weekend and bought more household stuff from bed bath & beyond.
all the furniture takes abt 2-4 weeks to arrive but we have 2 red chairs to sit on! here they are and their names are "real good chair". serious.
same furniture place, we bought a working table and a coffee table. of cos, the boy must buy designer furniture. all these are from Vessel. really really cool place tt sells super good looking stuff. but all clean lines and one color tone.
we bought a couch too! the couch looks rather normal, but it's super comfy n big! i love the couch. the couch is from another furniture place. we had a real rude salesman. he snapped at me when i asked how much is a 2 seater n the boy glared at him like a typical ah beng. hahahaha! n when the boy went to the loo the salesman said he's got a deja vu, he feels like he's spoken to me before. i duno if he's trying to make up for being rude earlier on, but tt just makes things worse. the boy almost didnt wanna buy the couch cos he was rude, but cos tt was the only couch we saw tt we really liked, we got it.
furniture here is expensive. if u wanna pay 300-500 u get really crap stuff (unlike in singapore, u can get ikea furniture for quite a good price n they look quite good). n the mid range ones are abt 900-1200 which is alright looking only n some are still quite crap. but if u pay a little bit more in the range of 1500, u get really really good stuff. so we figured we might as well pay for quality tt looks good, n keep it for yrs to come. just tt i think the next time we move, we'll have more shit to pack.
it rained all day on sunday....so we stayed in for dinner. the boy made instant noodles. but i gotta give it to him, his noodles are damn good tho from a packet. he added his own extra ingredients inside....damn shiok. n we had luncheon meat. the same canned ones they have in singapore. i found them at some asian supermarket. yummz!!!!
and i made pancakes for breakfast! with extra ingredients. we were just trying out. first 2 pcs were burnt cos i forgot it's gotta be on low heat. n the next 4 looked like the macdonald ones! hur hur hur! my last 2 rounds of pancakes look like prata, couldnt get the brown skin tone. as you can tell, i enjoy making pancakes more than eating them.
out of all the household stuff we bought, the boy bought me my toys - all my baking trays n pans, a steamer for my dresses.....n then he had to go buy plastic drawers n hangers n demanded i pack all my clothes from the boxes by this week cos he cant stand the boxes lying ard anymore. sigh....tt's gotta take me a while man. *grumbles*
and the best toy - hand mixer. he almost got me the kitchenaid one tt costs 300, it looks oh so good....but i told him no, the 30 bucks one will do cos i've never used one before. so instead, he got me kitchenaid mixing bowls instead, he say it's my small step to the big ass stand mixer. for those who duno wat my hype over the kitchenaid thingy is all abt, here it is, my ultimate baking toy.
and this is for my 2nd mummy dearest, my tajie. this will explain our conversation last friday.
she: eh does this mean a kiss? :-*
me: wait, i go back check my shower curtain.
she: HUH????
it's so deeeeeeegitaaaaaa eh? *giggles*
