Brought Justin to a dessert shop and introduced him to one of my all-time favourite black sesame paste.
Personally like the lights decor in the shop.
Love the arty lights in the shop. Somehow, gives me a peaceful feeling when i step into the shop.
I like my black sesame paste to go with either walnut or almond paste.
Apart from the fragrance, it adds a bit of color to my bowl. :-)
Makes me happy to enjoy the dessert on a peaceful afternoon with my dear son. =))
Because of our great success of the Dinner and Dance, the committee had the blessing of the MD to go for a good celebration lunch.
And so, we decided that since it was the last event celebration for the year, we should go for a good meal to greatly reward ourselves.
So we went for the lunch buffet at Todai at Marina Bay Sands. :-)
We have read and heard many good reviews about the buffet there, especially the seafood selection.
Did a mini research before we went, and this is what the floor plan in the restaurant looks like.
What a wide selection, ranging from seafood to Japanese, Korean, Western, Chinese and many more!!
Totally spoilt for choices!!!!!!! OMG!
So of course, the first station we went to was the most popular station: Seafood and cold cut.
Yummy big fat alaska crab and juicy salmon sashimi.
Soup wise, they have 3 choices for the day.
I chose the Crabmeat winter melon soup. Personally, not too bad… average… but i think can give it a pass in future. =p
This probably is the only not so nice item that I found in the restaurant. The very Japanese style laksa, that came with Ramen noodles.
Gravy was not thick and fragrant enough to my liking.
But the fried Yaki-udon was sadap!!!
And let the rest of the pictures tell the rest of the story of the other items that I tried.
My Japanese tempura platter.
Grilled platter
Crabmeat salad.
Korean fried rice cake……. Super Good!
Korean fried pancake. Must try.
Chinese mix.
And finally, the desserts! Few of the many choices available.
Teh tarik to end off the meal.
All in all, I think the buffet is pretty worth it’s price.
It was definitely a good dining experience.
Personally, even though its kind of pricey, but the quality of food and service there is definitely one of better ones compared to some buffets that I have been to so far.
I think I will be back, for sure. :-)
Just the snow crab and the oyster (only served on tuesday and thursday dinner) should be enough to cover the cost. :-))
It was really fun to see everyone dressed up, very different from the usual faces that we all see in the office.
I am especially amazed by my finance team.
Everyone looks so fabulous after the makeover!
Kelly (don’t play play, she is already in her late forties ok…)
Ada, the hot AP chic. 
Sook Yee, the hot mama of 2.
Kim, the new accountant from National. 
The Asia Internal Audit Manager
Michelle.
Christal and me. Pretty lady.
Udelia, the GL accountant… I think she should have won the best dressed award for the night!
Candice, the intern. 
The intern, Jamin
My handsome finance manager, Bruce. 
Aunty Jasmine. Can you believe that she is already turning 60 in 2 years time? 
My Finance Director… Chio!!
Aren’t the finance team rockin’ fun bunch of people??
Being in the recreation committee this year, we have already successfully organised 3 events this year.
And the biggest event to host this year is the Dinner and Dance.
Over the last 2 months, we have been so busy doing all the preparations from meeting with the event organisers,
shopping for costumes, make up artist and lucky draw prizes……
finally on 11 November 2011, we had the event at Marina Bay Sands Convention Centre. =)
Being in the committee of course also means that we had the special privilege to leave the office earlier than the rest to do our makeup.
And so, under the miracle hands of the makeup artist, this is what we were transformed into.
Makeup is amazing, isn’t it? 
The committee group photo. One of my favourite photo.
Its pretty amazing that almost everyone did dress up for the event on that day, and we had so much fun cam-whoring the whole time during the cocktail reception time.
And I think the success of the night, was largely due to the awesome emcee that hosted the show for the night.
Look at the emcee.. he is actually just only 25 year old…but he is really good!!!
My shot with him before the event started.
Lots more photos to come up in the next post…..
In the twinkle of an eye, baby Justin has turned 2 years old yesterday.
it seems like yesterday that we just celebrated his 1st birthday last year and now, we are already into the second birthday.
God has blessed us with a happy and bubbly baby. Of course, he was also one active (should read EXTREMELY ACTIVE) baby.
There is no one moment that he was sitting still, other than the times that he is asleep.
But still, Justin has brought so much joy to us and we experience parenthood in a special way.
From the time he took his first steps, the first time he learnt to feed himself with a spoon, the first time he called mummy and daddy,
the first time he is able to tell us what he want (even though not in complete sentences yet),
the first time he was able to walk on his own without assistance,
the first time he ran,
the first time he danced and played the guitar and the drum,
and many more firsts……
Even though I have not been able to send him to those enrichment classes like the other kids of his age, but i believe that he is doing fine so far, learning at home and with all the practical learning, Justin never fails to surprise me with new things that he learnt every other day. 
No two child are the same.
I think that should be true for the parenthood experience as well.
I am thankful that God has given me the privilege to experience motherhood and much as I think that it can get extremely tiring
at times, but the reward is definitely more than enough to offset the tiredness.
I am so excited for the many good years ahead as I spent with Justin in his growing up years.
Everyday, my prayer is that God give me more wisdom, so that I can bring him up with the correct values and
be able to impart to him all the good and godly teachings.
Once again, Happy Birthday Darling Justin!! May you continue to grow up to be a great man of God and may you continue to a happy baby all the days of your life! I love you loads, baby!
