Today one of my mum's friends grabbed me and went, "EH why you so thin already? You never eat enough in Singapore ah? LOOK AT YOUR FACE, slim down so much already! Aiyo you better eat now. Nah...here's some cake from San Francisco Coffee Shop, you better eat it NOW."
Haha.

Yesterday the moment I landed, daddy said, "We're going to eat crabs tonight."
Me: ?! What's the occasion?
Daddy: Nothing lar, just eat crabs.
Tomorrow there are 2 weddings to attend and on Sunday we're going for another one of those 10-course meals. And we might possibly be going to Melaka for a food trip.

In the car, on the way to crabs...
Mum: Then on Sunday we go and eat beggars chicken...this ____lar, heard that Rebecca is coming back, so he wanted to eat a nice big meal.
Aunty: Wah like that when is the next time you're coming back? Come back more often then we can eat more often.

Curry puffs mummy made:
Chicken chop, Hainanese-style:
Wonderful real potato-y wedges just like the kind they served us in Myanmar!

And this is how NOT to tell your child her dog died.
Daddy: We have a new puppy at home.
Me: Huh? How come?
Daddy: To replace Gary lar.
Me: WHY? WHAT HAPPENED TO GARY?
Daddy: Gary is gone away.
Me: What do you mean GONE AWAY? Ran away?
Daddy: Gone away died lar.
Anyhow, this is the new dog. He is extremely shy and is only 2 months old but already he loves mutton curry and durian cakes.
At the moment his name is Zorro coz he looks like Zorro. But mum doesn't like the name Zorro. She said, "Why you call my little boy SOH LO? (idiot in Cantonese) After people call him SOH LO SOH LO!"
