Yep, we got a place of our own in Spectra, Punggol. Off Punggol Central.
It is going to be a brand new experience when the place is ready, but its one big step forward to the next phase of our life. Yipee!!

A classic breakfast to start the (late) morning. Bread from daddy!
What is your breakfast today, Yunzhen?
Me? I had doughnuts for breakfast. They were yummy!

Just last week, YZ and I travelled to Upper Thomson Road to check new food places we have yet to dig our tongues in. There were quite a few along the road, and we settled for a North Indian Cuisine restuatant.
The boss was very friendly, greeting us at th door step and taking effort to explain the promotions. Ironically what attracted me is mainly the lack of crowd. Peaceful. Boss said they used to be in Singapore expo, but have shifted due to rent issues.
We ordered Bryani, nans (plain and garlic) and the curries. Compared to Khansama, the menu is less intimidating for people like us. Food served was a la fine dinin style interestingly. We swap some of the rice for more nans and boy were we really full from that!
Overall the food was decent and the place nice. I don’t know abt YZ but I think I prefer khansama still haha. Still, a place to check while you’re in the area with some inian delicacies cravings

Why our things last so well even after 20 years, it’s because of hardwork. So say papa

Came across this interesting checklist from ScordIt.
Something's up with this image uploading for the new wordpress… so it may not show properly.
The source of the page is here: http://bit.ly/43JCWF
Perhaps I should try this checklist when the next urge comes up to spend.

Sundays are generally lazy, so today we went to upper pierce for some time with nature and enjoy the peace around is
There were plenty of families with children running around, and monkeys! Lots of them!!
Everywhere looked harmonious and peaceful, perfect setting.
We are going to bring our kite there next time to fly it
