No Labor Day for Bunnies!

So Friday night I went to the opera to watch Puccini's Turandot with JC. It was all right. I mean, it was my first opera and such, so it was ok. I don't think that I'll go watch opera for a while though...well maybe not in Singapore. I would give it a 6.5/10. But the Nessun Dorma part was so delicious and juicy! Yum! Afterwards, I got kicked around on the pool table, and then we all went home.

Saturday, after some tennis and swimming in the rain (and getting eaten by mosquitoes), we went to eat some delicious food - I can't wait to go back there! I had some fried rice (which I haven't had since coming to Singapore!!) and some ...something else that was wrapped like banh cuon but it had siew mai in it, and then for dessert I got to look at 'lotus seed and white fungus' (which is also present in the Vietnamese set of desserts but I don't have any clue what it is called in Viet) and 'peanut soup' and 'durian with wrapper topped with crushed peanuts (?)' but mine was the best with wrapped fresh strawberries in a nice strawberry sauce. YUM! And it was loaded with strawberries too! Afterwards we went to the Settlers' Cafe and played Risk twice (I won the first time ^.^) and then hm we played Mad Gab (girls dominated!! w00t! SH!!). Then we went for some prata (I ordered strawberry prata, and in the picture there were strawberries, but it turned out just to be strawberry jam. bleck. in a crepe. ha! "prata" blah blah blah!). Then I went home. Bunny was sleepy.

Sunday woke up around 230 and made some calls. Ended up at Carrefour at Suntec to buy some ingredients for Smoked Salmon Pasta and Bruschetta. The smoked salmon pasta was all right, but I think we added a little too much lemon. I don't know. Pasta sauces are tricky! But the bruschetta was a little iffy at the beginning, but in the end it was DELICIOUS!!! CS doesn't cook at all, and I totally put him to work!! I love cooking so much! It is so much fun! Hm...I want to pick it up as a hobby, but there are no kitchens to use :(. Oh well. So after cooking, we all sat down to eat while watching the Opening Ceremony to the Olympics because I hadn't seen it yet! Then we just had a good chat for a while, and then I went home.

And here I am, working on Labor Day because I'm in Singapore! haha
