Tiring Weekend!

On Friday, after work, I went out to play some pool (lots of pool) and came home late, collapse on the bed and was wondering how I would ever wake up on time to play some badminton. Unfortunately (and fortunately), it rained on and off on Saturday, so badminton was canceled (as well as the courts being booked). I just went over early to Paragon to go for some grocery shopping to make my 'famous' (not really) Lemon Blueberry Trifle (which turned out great!). Then we just came back, and I recruited everyone to help out a little to make this trifle (which made it more special/more delicious)! The end product was really nice, and next time I am considering using different flavo(u)rs just to see how it would turn out. But I love lemons so much...maybe raspberries would be nice (but they are so soft...hmmm). So then SH and I went to sleep (like a bunch of cats ^.^), and I'm pretty sure that I slept the most of the group there. We got to see some photos from the Thailand and Laos trip that our friends took; the party was a farewell party, and a lot of fun but bittersweet. We grilled some hot dogs, franks, and chicken (which came last but was definitely the best). I also bought two Korean 'couture' dresses from People of Asia Co. I'm wearing one right now!! :D

On Sunday I went to Orchard to do some more shopping, and I got a work outfit from Zara (just a nice white shirt and high waisted black skirt). Then Fpoo and NM picked me up from Taka to run to Botanical Gardens. What else? Then we went shopping at Tanglin Mall for some food (while thinking about a place to eat dinner), and suddenly we decided to make Buffalo Wings at 'home,' Mac&Cheese, and some delicious salad (Nicoise? Rocket?) - Spinach + Rocket + Goat Cheese + Roasted Pine nuts + Olive OIl + Balsamic Dressing = delicious salad. The buffalo wing sauce wasn't too spicy, but I ate enough that it made me cry. haha! But I am loving that we are cooking together - seriously it makes the experience 1000x better than when you go to a restaurant. And I am sort of a poohead because I like to snack while cooking. But when I am around food, I have no chance...

So here begins a new week! I will be in Kuala Lumpur tomorrow!! Crazzzzzy!!! :D
