Turning English

After all those travelling, I am getting a hang of having tea and oatcakes for breakfast.

No more cravings for nasi lemak and pork noodles for breakfast.

Let me introduce my new found love - Scottish Rough Oatcakes. Eating this makes me feel less guilty than eating digestives. Two pices of oatcakes and a cup of tea is sufficient to fill me up till lunchtime. If I had Digestives, I would be munching four pieces before I feel satisfied. Also, due to its higher sugar content, Those digestives will not lasy me till lunch. Scottish Oatcakes are awesome! Sold in Aldi :):)

St. Patrick's Day 2013 in Dublin

I had such an amazing time in Ireland thanks to the company. I was there for St. Patrick's Day and the 'green' vibe was felt even days before. Historical buildings were litted up with green lightings at night and people were dresses up in green accessories in conjunction with St. Patricks. The parade was a colourful occasion with dancing and bands playing along. The crowd was massive eventhough it was raining and very cold. Our feets were frozen after the parade and it was actually hard work to walk to Yamamori for lunch with frozen feet lol
The parade began at 12pm and lasted for two hours.

A decade

Over a decade of friendship.
We travelled from different parts of the world to one city - Dublin.
We hardly met. We rarely spoke.
But once in Dublin nostalgia hits like a bullet. It was meaningful and worth the journey.

Till we meet again :)

Easter travels

From Glasgow to London to Glasgow to Edinburgh to Ireland to Glasgow

I have had an amazing adventure lately travelling to places with amazing people, food and environment. Each place had its own 'wow' factor.

I am in Dublin right now enjoying the St. Patrick's Day vibe. The historical buildings were litted up with green lights at night in conjunction with St. Patricks Day.

More to come...

Dublin

Ireland- the land of Guinness

Guiness taste awesome here. True story.
And a doctor tells me Guinness is good for health.

Baked potatoes @ Covent Garden London

I found Covent Garden an amazing place to be in London. It was like a little twon on its own with a variety of shops and a market which sells interesting accessories. This place felt very artsy too. When we first stepped into Covent Garden, we could not help but compare the atmosphere to that of Quincy Market in Boston. The place was packed with street performers, entertaining the crowd with rupturous laughters all around. At times it felt surreal as everyone was relaxed, having a good time exploring.

For dinner, the three of us had jacket potatoes while one had belgium waffles. I had the chilli con carne jacket potatoes which were served piping hot, suitable for the cold. Christel had her jacket potato with a generous amount of cottage cheese, while Ericka had the american ham and cheese potato. EJ had her Belgian waffle which was soaked in shrup. I preferred crispy crunchy waffles compared to soggy ones.

We had a good time.

Spring time!

Its still so cold! We had a day of 14 degrees celcius and after that the temperature plunged to 4 degrees. London is supposedly going to snow this weekend too.

Waiting for the day i can be jacketless n just slip on a dress without having to worry about the weather.
If you dont know, i love dresses :)
