Sorry for the mth long hiatus... been busy with the new house/work/
been HELP-less for 1 wk plus after my previous helper returned to
Philippines after 4 yrs in Spore.
Some of the crabs which i bot having their 'spa' ....

I've never cooked in my life... but i did try cooking 3 types of soup
+ dishes using the Panasonic microwave/grill oven. Even though i
cooked only v basic stuff, i already find the whole experience tedious
n exhausting!
I think my forte lies only in... EATING.


Hubby cooked these. I forgot to take the 3rd soup i made :P

LE VIET:
Everydish was nice except for their vermicelli. The kuay teow i tabao was also tasteless.
Lesson learnt: never order their rice/noodle dishes

ordered 3 teatime sets @ $6.90 each. Verdict? Their cakes are below average.
BIO-GEL MANICURE:
my 1 mth old BioGel Polish

L'OCCITANE: Olive Goodness. 
KS me decided to restock on the Ltd Edition Shea Butter Body Cream even tho im only 1/3

Wonder y the Lavender clarifying shampoo is OOS for so long *hmpf* SOAPS.... yes the gd old soap... L'Occitane makes 1 of the most luxurious soaps!
