A Cut Short Lunch with Colleagues

Was very much looking forward to today's lunch with Bo and the rest. KS, Yeo, Irene, miss Ang and Bo were there. We gathered at 4 Fingers, Orchard Gateway.

It was back to the old times when we had long chats at lunch and talk sense and nonsense... lol. It felt really good. But short lived. As we adjourned to Yakun for part 2, mama's phone call gave me a shock and I sprinted back home.... not even an hour lunch together. She said Eden was crying non stop. Initially I misheard he was puking non stop. In either case I was still very worried so got to leave the gang without further ado. I felt worried yet sad to have ended my time out like that.

Thankfully Eden was a lil more settled when I reached home. Thankfully I could get into a cab without waiting.

Eden could be cranky as he was coughing badly or he could be looking for other people for companionship at home. Or even both. Poor baby was all whiney and tired and probably hungry. He was falling asleep during the milkfeed.

On the other hand I think bro and Evans are now having fun, the last I checked with bro, they were at Art Science Museum!!! Happening right!? I have never been there myself!

Eden is now asleep but I can't stop thinking when I can be out with friends  (free from worries) again. Actually I do have a dinner coming up this Fri. Certainly hope things will be better.

To-gather Cafe

Last Sunday hubby brought us to this cafe in the midst of the neighbourhood at Bedok North. Within an old estate, this hippy cafe stood out and seemed to be popular amongst the youngsters and small families like ours, minus the baby.

Wouldn't say this was an enjoyable lunch despite the food was delicious. Eden was not too pleased halfway through so hubby and I got to take turns bringing Eden out of the cafe for a walk. And somehow I thought the outside smell a little with the birds shop next to it.

Anyway the consoling part is I like what we ordered. Other than the small portion of calamari, I think the rest was good and reasonably priced. I enjoyed my fish and chips! Smell and tastes great. The Mango breezer was a good complement, sour tangy mango in sparkly soda was what I needed in the hot weather.

Next time we shall try the lava cakes which looked alluring in the display window.

Throwback to Last Sunday at One KM Mall

Evans has stopped his Heguru class. It was a lil sad for me as he started the course in 2013 with Teacher Rhian and now we have to say goodbye.

Anyway though there was no more class for Evans, we still went back to one km last Sunday for lunch and tea. Gotta use the Fika groupon before it expired.

We also met up with Teacher Rhian and had a short chat.

It was a good day out for me. Felt really liberated to be finally going out like we used to. Eden was considered quite cooperative too. I particularly enjoyed the tea time we had at Gelare. Wish that we can just take time so easily.

Afternoon Out with Evans

A quick post while the 2 boys are asleep.

Spent the afternoon out with Evans today. It was simple but lovely outing for us. Thanks to mama for agreeing to help with Eden while the 2 of us could have some fun time together.

Was glad to see Evans boy enjoying himself at Sakae Sushi, East Point. Not his first to Sakae but he was definitely pleasantly surprised to see the games on the ordering ipad. He had a good time with the sushi games. I was also glad that we ordered the beef shoyu ramen as it was not bad. The ingredients were simple therefore not overpowering and the soup was savoury, light saltiness but good enough. It had the ramen, thin and springy beef slices, seaweed, thinly sliced black fungus and the half japanese egg. I recalled the last I had Ramen at Sakae, it was not good. This time I was satisfied.

After Evans had enough fun with the games, we went to Tom & Stephanie for a short while before heading to the Tampines Library. Or rather by right we should be going there straight but because Evans is always so fascinated by the mrt, we took a detour to Pasir Ris then back Tampines so that he could have a longer mrt ride.

I hope he had a fun day out with me even though we did not do much adventurous stuff.

Now I will see if I am lucky enough to catch some nap too.
