• unpleasant experience in ikea – using the baby room.

    ever since the incident happened, i haven’t been feeling great and i needed to rant about it. the thought of it irks me to no end. so ya, warning given. rant ahead. I really, needed to get this off my chest. so, the renovations are almost done and the husband and me have been frequenting ikea lately in between whatever bits of time we could spare. on one of those week days where i had to take leave to care for the kid, the husband decided that we should make use of the time to visit ikea since jerry is at school and logistically, it’s much easier to manage the…

Headed out with aunt (she’s here in Singapore to help take care of myMum while she tries to rest and recover from her recent surgery), brother and der for dim sum at Hua tin. Yummy, but these days..

Swung by goodwood park for 20pcs of durian puff goodness……
