A Rewarding Shopping Day at Great Singapore Sale (GSS)

Last week, I dated both my children for a day of GSS shopping. With them growing so rapidly & seeing them always busy with their school works & friends, it is really not a easy task to find a day when both of them are free. Finally, a weekday was reserved & there we went on our shopping spree for the whole day.

It was a day well spent with them not just merely getting to buy the things we had wanted for ourselves. It was fun helping each other to make up our minds on the colour selections & many other final details before deciding on the purchases. In between our shopping, we stopped to rest our tired legs & to enjoy our coffee break at Toast Box.

There were so much to see & buy just along the stretch of shopping centres in Orchard Road alone. After a day of tired but happy shopping, the three of us landed ourselves for a good Chinese dinner at Crystal Jade in Ngee Ann City. Hmmm . . . the pan-fried black pepper beef cubes with wine, steam cod & their spinach with three types of eggs in superior stock were all very yummy. My boy highly recommended the dish of beef. The texture & fragrance was done just right to be accompanied with rice.

Too bad, their dad was too busy with his work & couldn't join us for dinner that evening. After dinner, we continued our last stop of shopping at Heeren before their dad came to fetch us home. After dropping off the children to go home with all our shopping stuffs, I accompanied their dad for his dinner. Just giving him my companionship was also a delight although I couldn't join him to eat.

New Cell Group Bonding

In the mist of our busy schedule, our cell members have found time during the start of June school holidays for relaxation & bonding at National Service Resort & Country Club . We had a bbq dinner on the last night of our stay. A sumptuous spread of food were prepared by various members of our group. We had satays, marinated stingrays, marinated pork chops, 2 types of marinated chicken wings (mustard, honey & herb and also teriyaki), beautiful mixed vegetables & fruits salads, chicken curry, sausages, cuttlefish balls, ice-creams, agar agar, fruits & wine.

So, as best said, let that picture speak a thousand words . . . . . .






More chefs at work. Hahaha ... Hurry, hurry, many are getting hungry.


Child labour? Why not? Under daddy's supervision is perfectly acceptable.




























Hey, who cooked it?


Byran, look here! you're on candid camera.


Thanks David, you've brightened our day! We love your shirt.






Tempting, right?'










"Two's a company, three's a crowd." Wrong, who said that? It should be "Two's a company, three's a party"


four's a celebration; and five's . . . .


Yum, yum, not bluffing you, the satay tastes reeeeal good ... hmmm ...







Want to know how we handle the leftovers? Oh well! losers eat them all. Poor Joel, must have gotten to eat most of them . . . .



Taking a break from eating.
