Last Day Of 2015

Have been trying to arrange to meet up with Godma Annie and finally, we have a date where everyone is free-- the last day of 2015!

Godma Annie suggested a nice place with nice food in Liang Court and so we decided to go there lor.

However she was held up in office and so we said we will wait for her...

While waiting, Max went to his favorite "juice" shop there... to have a cup...

Haha.. found a cider tat is named ACE:)

But that is very boring for us... so me and Ace went to explore Liang Court. We visited Uniqlo... and then walked around the mall and found this mini exhibtion... It talks about the Japanese new year and the things associated to it...

The doll display is so cute:)

I think this is the doll for the Boy's Day.

I never knew this is  a wish doll... so cute:)

A larger version of that Hina Masturi display..

This botak man is to increase good fortune and bring good luck.. HUAT AH!:)

Japanese dragon dance of sorts...

Everyone should know what this is lah:)

You tell Ace this has good luck and he will want to take photo with it:) hahahaah

Then very bored.. so we went to kinokuniya and Ace was telling me how he wanted to spend his money to buy this and that but he din bring his money along so he asked if I can lend him money and I said no...

Ace was excited to see this!:) hahaha

We spent a good bulk of our time doing this...looking through the puzzle book to find the tiny dog... wah, I almost thought the dog is non existent!

The dog is so small lor.. so hard to find.. after I did a few pages, I had a headache lor!

And then we looked at this and looked at that and decided that there was finally nothing to see.. and just as we were about to walk out of the shop, Ace saw a book on display called THIS BOOK LOVES YOU... it is a book of quotes by one of his favorite youtube channels, Pewtie Pie...

And then he delcared that he is going to stand there and finish reading the whole book..

But his mother me already had achy feet.. and heng ah! There is a bench right outside the bookstore and so I went to sit down and take pictures of him reading his book...

Had to sit there for 20 minutes while he finished reading..

When he was finally done, we went to search for Max and wat was he doing?

Same as what he always does..

Then it is time for dinner! And we had a great dinner with some nice desserts:)

Happy Ace got a $100 red packet from Annie Godma.. $50 for him to buy things... $50 to support his charity work.... and so he immediately went to buy this mist fan that he saw in KINO:) hahahaha

We also got some lovely HONEY APPLES from Annie Godma as presents:) The apples are so sweet and cost $5 each lor! Ace as so excited to eat them and I had to make him wait till his dad is around to cut them or Max wouldnt have a chance to taste them at all:)

Then we reached home.... and at 12 mid night... there were two fireworks display visible from our house:)

Also saw alot of red red lights floating in the sky... Max said they are flares that ships shoot into the air to celebrate the new year. Usually supposed to be used during emergency lah.. but during new year.. shoot as celebration...

And then, we went back to bed.. So that was how we spent the last day of 2015:) haha...

Play Date With Lele

Before the start of the holidays, I asked Ace what he wanted to do this holiday...

He said he wanted to have playdates with his good friends, Lele and Louis... but we have been so busy this holiday that it has been difficult to arrange for a date where everyone is free to meet up.

The other day, Max said he will be having dinner with friends and will not be home and so I thought since there is a free slot, I called and asked if Lele's mum wanted to have dinner together. She suggested that we visit them and so we did:)


Ace brought along his usual guns and stuff and I asked him why he needed to bring toys when Lele has so many toys at home and his answer is.. "But he doesn't have this one..."

Anyway, their first game of the day is Little Prince Cafe:) hahahaha. Lele's mum bought a new Nespresso machine and Ace initially wanted to make a milo BUT when he heard the machine only makes hot milo, he said he dun want liao.. but cos I din wanna disappoint the boys, so I ordered a mocha so they can fiddle with the machine:) haha...

See, even served in traditional kopitiam cups!:)

Then they took out all the barang barang and the living room looked like a war zone when they were playing...

At the start, they negotiated about wat to play and Lele said he wanted to play Disney Infinity on the XBox and Ace said he did not want to.. and dunno how, they nego and nego.. they finally decided to play.. I think likely they were taking turns to do different things each other wanted to do...

I am happy that Ace knows to take turns and take care of his bro:)

SO they played the Disney Infinity and Ace wanted to use Iron Man without regard for his powers and kept losing:) hahahaha...

And then as me and KP chatted on, the boys went to the room and played all sorts of games.

Ace said the most fun game was the Light Sabre fight in the DARK!

And I was like, "Aiyoh, that is so dangerous leh!"

"No lah, I hit lightly and we each other's sabre mah.."

I told him that it is in the dark and you cannot see each other, sure to accidentally hit each other and he confessed that he hit Lele once accidentally and Lele also accidentally hit him... And so I told him that is exactly my point. I told him they should have lights so they can see each other lah..

Anyway, the two boys had so much fun that when it was time to go home.. it took ONE HOUR  from the time I said we have to go home... till the time we actually stepped out of their house:) hahaha...

Anyway, at least one item I promised him is checked off in the list.. phew:)

Latest Lego Creations

Met up with Godma SL post christmas for a meal:)

Ace was excited to meet up to pass her the cookies he baked... (she said they were delicious!)

I told her it is always a dilemma for me when I meet her.. do I bring Ace or not. If I do.. he always interrupts when we chat. If I dun, I know she will miss him...

We had a meal at Mac Donalds and then went to walk walk in Toys R Us...

Thank goodness Ganma SL very clever.. in the Xmas presents she bought for Ace, she bought a Star Wars water bottle, a Star wars bag (that Ace loves and declare is his current favorite bag) and also a small MINION those mini lego that he can fix while we chat and have tea:) hahaha

Ace jalan jalan in ToysRUs:)

Walked until very tired liao so we went to food court to sit down and while we chat, the boy fixed up his minion:)

It was a super long chat we had since we havent been meeting up for quite a while and

Somehow, fixing the minion made him miss his lego and so he took out his lego set to fix things up and asked me to take photo and post on his blog...

Purposely put some background in the laptop screen so it looks liek batman is flying in the sky:)

This one is supposed to be picture of a dark forest but the lighting is such tat we cant capture much of the background but we captured Ace's face:) hahaha..

Ace Bakes Cookies For His Godmas

Every school holiday, I will ask Ace if he wants to do some baking or cooking.

This holiday, because it is christmas, I asked him if he wanted to continue the tradition and bake his godmothers some christmas goodies as presents.

This year, he decided that he will bake some chocolate chip cookies...

That is him mixing things up....

Spooning everything into the air fryer basket...

Alas, airfryer takes a long time to bake cos each time can only bake 9 cookies. so sad.. ahahaha

Cooling down..

So I decided we shall use the oven and let the oven in this kitchen  "开张”.....

And... the oven turned out to be a sad story... After I cleaned it up and switched it on to heat it up.... the rack holder by the side fell off! Wah lau eh...... now already heated up.. how do I put it back? It took me another 10 min to try to put it back and by then, oven cool down liao and got to reheat again...

But leh, in the end, managed to bake all the rest of the cookies in one shot.. so still not so bad...

And since the oven is working, I thought maybe we can bake some chilli crab pizzas... that I have learnt and have been wanting to try:)

One pizza for each pax...

Dunno is lucky or unlucky me...

By the time I was baking my pizza, the oven suddenly tripped and then the whole house had a blackout... Luckily it was more or less already done by then and so I just eat lah:)

Ace is very happy in this picture cos he is so happy that the cookies tasted so good!:)

Very unfortunately, after he passed some to Ganma SL, some to Ganma Annie... havent got chance to meet the rest of the godmas (cos they are overseas etc), he steal a cookie a day and finished it up for good in the end...

He says it is so tasty he wants to buy and bake again:) hahaha...
