Turning Aunty

I dunno what to make of myself being spotted at the supermarket TWICE in the same week by two different group of friends. They were laughing when they saw me picking up groceries and there were something in their eyes that read "AUNTY"... Wells, I've indeed become an aunty... My nieces call me "Shen Shen" instead of Jie Jie Kara.. That's quite hard to bear.. "Shen Shen" is something that I wld call my uncle's wife... Like Ken says, when a lady gets married, her status changes. How true...

Anyhows, we're trying to make it a point to cook a homecooked meal once a week (and reheat the same food in the microwave and eat it for the rest of the week... JUZ KIDDING!) And since I'm better at the stove and Randy's better at the sink, we split duties that way.......

Our Sat breakfast - of blueberry pancakes, salad, & coffee

My sis and the Thong family popped by this week for dinner @ our cosy place... Had planned for some simple Japanese-styled dishes.. We wanted to cook extras for our dear friends who haven't been having much homecooked food lately...
So glad to have them.......!!! It was a great time chatting with them and having people to help us finish all that food!!!!!!!

Scenes fr. the set of "80s Rewind"

We threw a Helper's Treat for our wedding helpers & photographers at our little rented 3 room flat on the 10th Aug (public holiday!)....

As mentioned in my post almost a yr ago, we were going for the retro look as our place is totally old-school... So here's some sneaks of how our place looks like and the snapshots of the party!

Today I took a day off as a photographer and put on the chef's hat!

Mini victory!

I woke up this morning and realised it's 11th aug! A month since we got married! Well, we've always learnt that in a relationship it's important to celebrate small successes n victories... So I decided to prepare an impromptu surprise supper cum mini celebration...

Randy's gotta be @ sch this evening but we promised to celebrate when he's back... So he left the celebration stuff in my hands...

So right after work, I bought some of our fav food to enjoy!

Taiwan Mee Sua

DongDaeMun Fried Chicken Thigh - smells fantastic!

Bubble tea

Mango Pomelo Sago

Retro Kaya Cake

The full spread!

The phone call came @ 10.15pm and Mr Hubby is right downstair... time to turn off the lights!

SURPRISE!!!

Before we tucked in, we prayed and thank God for a nice cozy place and seeing us thru our 1st month...

And since it's our 1 month anniversary, Wedding has to join in the celebration too!!

Of course we din dare feed her after the ordeal last week (i fed her my birthday cake.. :P ) where we had to rush her to Doc Cathy's...

Wedding is the cutest thang on earth..........!
