5th Anniversary at Tanjong Beach Club

So, we celebrated our 5th anniversary at Tanjong beach club. It was a simple celebration. 

The place was really quiet and peaceful. There were only two tables being occupied, including ours.

Seafood Linguini. 

Ahh, this was really good! I'm not a seafood person, but this was really quite good! Do give it a try if you're there. 

No one steps out of this restaurant without trying their truffle fries! 

A bouquet of purple tulips, which was delivered to my workplace. :> I'm not a flower person, but deep down I'm really happy to receive this. Thank you, love! 

Haha, ending with my 3 year old niece posing with the flowers!

Shernise's 1st Birthday!

My little niece turned one two weeks back, and we celebrated her birthday one week in advance. Since my friend will be taking the photos, so I didn't manage to take much photos,  :> 

I really love the decorations of the house, everything painstakingly handmade by my sister-in-law. Kudos to her! 

Goodie bags for the guests. 

My cute little niece, Shervelle! 

I baked some chocolate cupcakes with cream cheese frosting, and top it with a strawberry to fit the theme. 

Marshmallow dipped in white chocolate with red and green sprinkles. 

That's all for now.

Really good brownies!

Just baked some brownies, to satisfy my craving for chocolate! This brownie texture is just right; fudgy and cakey. And it really does taste like P.Osh brownies!! 

Recipe from thesweetart.

Note: I reduced the sugar to 200 grams and salt. 

Do try out the recipe, its really awesome! :) 

San Francisco! (Day 2,3,4)

Day 2

We went to Gilroy premium outlet to shop in the afternoon, which was located just one hour drive from SF.  And yeah, we basically spent the whole day (almost) there.

Okay, the reviews for this Japanese ramen shop were really good. Therefore, we decided to settle our dinner there. BUT just looked at the crowd, we waited for approximately an hour. Having said that, we were FAMISHED and COLD while waiting. And I doubt they accept any reservation, plus the shop is really small. 

(Sorry for the poor editing of the food photo, the lighting was really bad in the shop.)

So glad that the food came in huge portion, and the ingredients were generously served. :)

  

A must have, bokeh shot. 

Random street name.

Day 3 and 4. 

Random hobo on the streets of Berkerley.

While walking to the supermarket. I risked my life to take this shot, and you should know I'm just kidding. Hahaha. 

The supermarket completely blew me off. It's way too amazing. More on next post! :>

P.S. I'm really bad at writing. And I already tried to write as much as I can, but I thought photos would be suffice. ;) 

Hello San Francisco! (Day 1)

Finally getting down to edit some of the photos from my US trip! Its the first time I ever travel out of asia. :> 

Some visuals on the first day! 

Mandatory airplane shot!

Arrived at SF!!!!!! It was midnight when we reached!

Major Jet lagged. I remembered we only had 2-3 hours of sleep, and woke at 4am in the morning. Haha. We went to explore the hotel gym, watch sunrise and had an early breakfast. Oh, the pancakes were really good!

Walked around the hotel area, while waiting for shuttle bus to the airport. This 'flower' can be seen quite often. 

Back at the airport to take BART (Their MRT) to the city.  

Train station. 

The ticket was crazily expensive! If I remembered it correctly, it cost USD 16 for return trip. 

Yayyyy, arrived at the city. Walking to fisherman wharf!

Market inside fisherman wharf.

Fisherman Wharf! 

Got some beverages at Peet's Coffee, and I fell in love since then. Yes, its really good. 

We left the city and back to the airport to collect the rented car.

Our ride for the whole trip! 

We drove to Berkeley. And guess what? We got parking fine here. Hahahhahaah. 

Vegan chili cheese air baked fries from Smart Alec.  

Back to city for shopping, because when we were there the previous time it was too early and most of shops were not opened yet.

That pretty sums up day 1! Hope you enjoy the photos. :>

Chillax Cafe

 Went to Serangoon gardens for arbite after shoot, it was a very impromptu decision. However, when we reached there, its full house and have to wait for more than a hour for seats. Hence, Chillax cafe was our next option!

 Their truffles fries! Well, truffle fries can never go wrong.

Ending with my favorite shot!

Ps I'm still learning how to edit photos, so the colors of the photos might not be good.
