Diff Pricing at Cold Storage June 5, 2007

Filed under: Family, Food — mummydear @ 11:59 pm

Mei called me to chk if I’m gg to prepare Kueh Pie Ti for the picnic. Such coincidence! I was discussing with Man the ingredients of KPT at the Jelita Cold Storage. She was at dunno-which-branch Cold Storage and asked if I needed her to buy the KPT cups. Giving a quick glance fr where I was, I didn’t see any KPT cups and hence I asked her to buy.

Happily she put down the phone. Less than a minute, she called again, “yr KPT nice or not?” … Silly Mei! Called jus to ask tis question. Not nice oso MUST eat!

Jus then, I found KPT cups and called her to chk if she had bot any. To our ‘horror’ :) , she bot 75cups at $21+++, whereas mine was selling only at $19+++ for 80cups.

I do know tt pricing r not the same in all Cold Storage. Which Cold Storage did she go to, I wonder … …

Was clearing some ‘rubbish’ in the hse today, when I landed upon these 2 goodies bags fr Qantas, which were given to the girls during the flight.

I decided to give them a makeover. First I removed all tags and labels, then I searched high & low for 2 little soft toys and put my creativity to work. Bingo! Here are the ‘after-makeover’ pics of the bags:

Can Rest or Cannot Rest June 4, 2007

Filed under: Family, Learning — mummydear @ 6:17 pm

Dun understand why this statement is incorrect … …

吃完晚饭后,他躺在床上休息

Today, I collected Ashley’s report book cum papers; and found the above 完成句子 was wrong and cost her 2marks.

The answer is … …

吃完晚饭后, 我和爸爸妈妈在客厅谈天

Grammatically, is there error in the 1st statement???

Or is it ‘politically’ more correct to have a chat after dinner than to rest???

I really dunno … but today, after lunch, I went to rest leh … cannot meh???

 

MAAD June 2, 2007

Drop by MAAD mkt at 12noon today. Dunno was it too early, tt there weren’t too many stalls or crowd.

Majority of the stalls were selling costume jeweleries and accessories, only a few caught my attention to look at what they were selling. We only spent abt half an hr there and we left empty handed.

Though location is vy near to Tanjong Pagar MRT, but the crowd is not there. It wld b gd if the mkt can shift to Esplanade, and get more artists, designers and musicians to showcase their talents.

A told B rental $800, so B told C, who wanted to rent a hse urgently.

C called D (being the agent) to arr for viewing. D told C the rental is $1k (‘cos mkt oledi vy crazy, calling at $1.2k), and abt comm & stamp duty.

C told E, E called D to confirm. Unsatisfied with D answers, E told F, F called D’s mgr, G.

G called D to understand the situation. G clarified with F tt D’s information/procedure conformed to the Co’s policies.

C called D to cancel the viewing, ‘cos C cldn’t afford the rental.

D’s mum, H, called to ask if the hse was rented out. D told H the deal was off. H said y not rent at $800 and save all the troubles??? D told H, “bcos I’m an agent.”

How wld u handle if u were A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, … … whose hat r u wearing?

 

Ashley Skpye-ing With Daddy May 29, 2007

Filed under: Family — mummydear @ 9:33 pm

Ashley was playing internet games on my PC when Daddy sent a skype … below was the conversation:

[4:19:32 PM] Man says: u still there?
[4:22:21 PM] Felicia says: hello, i am ashley mummy is sleeping i am playing mummy computer :)
[4:22:51 PM] Man says: is georgia also sleeping?
[4:23:42 PM] Felicia says: yes (yawn)
[4:24:14 PM] Man says: why aren’t you sleeping then? :^)
[4:25:47 PM] Felicia says: i cannot sleep
[4:26:22 PM] Man says: what else did you do at home today?
[4:32:27 PM] Felicia says: i do my abacus (whew) and now my hand is going to break ;(
[4:33:43 PM] Man says: ok i’m going back to work. bye bye
[4:34:20 PM] Felicia says: bye :)

Find it quite amusing when she said her hand was breaking ‘cos of abacus homework (plus the Skype animated emoticons, the statement seems even funnier) … i thot it shd b due to internet gaming???

Tink the char kuey tiao, char hei mee, roti prata and chilli crabs hd made it worst … price paid for tum jia! Hv not been feeling well since return, even the massage ytd didn’t help much. Sianzzzzzzzzzz … …

Brought the girls to the playground early in the morning. Was surprised tt we were the only fmy there. Normally, there will b a lot of PRC fmy there … a sign of sch holiday, guess they hv returned to their homeland.

BTW, Eudora delivered her BB today at Mt. A. Congratulations, Khim!!!
