My Recent Vacation Overview

Thought I would post this up first. (^_^)

I would probably blog on the makan I had on the way, with the pics.

Vacation

Dear Friends,

I will be away from 02 - 13 Sep. Will probably update the week when I am back.

I'll be going to Niagara Falls, Toronto, Penslyvannia, Virginia and Maryland, so be prepared for tons of pics.

Enjoy your week ahead!

Healthy Living

Since I turned 34, I have decided to eat healthier. This could not come at a better time. Ken has joined his colleagues for a makan arrangement where each person will bring all the food per week. Currently there are 6 people in this plan, so I have to cook once a week for his makan only. When he is home from work, we will eat something simple and not be concerned that he has to be bringing the food to work and hence have to avoid some food cause they taste sucky when re-heat.

So the pics are some meals that we have at home. We can have porridge or noodle soup or seafood! Haha.

Birthday Weekend

I Love Coupons!

Ken was on guard duty on Sunday and hence got Monday off in lieu. We went off to grab a bite before we go n wash his celica. And we went to McDonald's since we have not been there for a really long time. The best part is that we got this coupon which gives us a burger for free if we order one from the regular menu. Woohoo! So we got one southern chicken club sandwich n a southern chicken BLT sandwich + drinks + fries for only $6 plus. Cheap meal! The sandwich v big, I only managed to finish half of it - tapao the balance for tea-time.

After we wash the car, we went to Tucson Mall to Sears, hoping to get a deal on screwdrivers. Lo and behold, we got 8 pieces for $10.99. Haha. Cheapo me very happy!

So happy that we decided to go for dessert! Cold Stone Creamery! We used a coupon that lets us buy 2 Love-It size for $6.

Mine : Mint with Twix

His : Cotton Candy with White Chocolate Chips

The Fate of the KrispyKreme Donuts

Eh, we bought a boxful of KrispyKreme Donuts on Saturday (a dozen) @ $7++.
Ken ate 3 and I ate 2, so 7 were left in the box.
We intended to eat it for breakfast on the drive home on Sunday.
Halfway, we realised it was missing. :(
Turns out while packing the bags in the car, Ken left it on the roof of the car.
Boohoohoo!
