I'm really blessed and touched to have just celebrated 15th year anniversary with Eve!

Early morning, I woke up at 445am to jog and I came back, thinking to make a butter cake for her. (Actually the main reason was that I had a craving for it!)

I went to the website to search for the ingredients. And I went to the nearby supermarket to shop for the necessary ingredients. And I did the butter cake from scratch! I spent around thirty minutes in total, from weighing of the ingredients to mixing to placing the batter onto the baking tray. I prayed for a successful butter cake before placing it into the oven.

After 25 minutes, it was done! And the whole kitchen was filled with the butter cake fragrance! The time check was 7am!  I'm so proud to say that all of them love it!! WOOHOO! All of us ate it for breakfast! Yum!

Finished product
Really thank god that the whole butter cake was fluffy and had the sweet aroma of vanilla! Love it.

At 3pm, my wife received a bouquet of flowers, specially arranged by me. I'm really glad that she was touched and surprised!! :) More wonderful years to come!

Kate's 2! A simple birthday celebration!

Kate turns 2 years old on 11th July 2013! And coincidentally, it's 2 day old for our new born too! We had to celebrate it at Mount Alvenia and it's certainly a fun celebration for Kate, and it's a simple affair too! We didn't manage to cook dinner and we ordered extra meals from the hospital. It's only $8 per set and they provide soup, vegetables and meat, fruits and juice! Really worth it. They only can provide a maximum of 3 meals! Josh ate all his rice and Kate loves the fish! Amazing. Of course, we didn't tell them that we are having birthday cake later. Or else, they will not be eating much of their dinner. Family feast! Love the pork vinegar dish! Oops! Pouring some of our home cooked soup that I prepared for lunch. Luckily we brought because we finished all the soups! Mother and son. Kate is such a loving sister. She pats her new born sister, as she was placed on the trolley which is used for the jaundice UV Machine. ...

Today, it's a fun day, well sort of. Got up and rushed straight to French Embassy for my first french lesson (beginner course). My teacher is Franck. He's a humorous teacher and overall, I find that french is an exquiste language, very special and interesting. I've learnt basic greetings for today. And time really passed very fast after learning. The classmates are of different background and age, and we are all having the same base of french (aka, having no knowledge at all) haa.. Yiwen and I actually wanna go to Orchard. However, we took the wrong side. We took 171 to Bukit Timah area instead! Then we U-turned. I went to Pointers to cut my hair. And it happened that the manager cut my hair. So lucky eh? Not many people would have the chance to actually cut by him, have to make appointment and pay $20. But because he is shorthanded, he came and help out... :@) Then, I rushed to meet Shaun to go to Camp to clear all our stuff. Lucky got him to help me drive fr...
