• Cat mountain surprise.

    I love throwing surprises. When the mood struck me that is. And of cos, the opportunity to do so.. I blogged about the goodwood park’s mao shan power puffs that was oh-so-good in my previous post. And because the promotion period is nearing its end, and my mum has yet to try.. The puff was too small to be shared among so many of us the other day so I brought her to buy some yesterday. Yes, crazily enough.. I drove out just to get the puffs..
