Happy 2nd month!

I'm a happy girl now!!! Today also marks my 2nd month here! I don't know why but it seemed longer than that.

Firstly in the morning, mum told me yiyi had asked her tw colleague (who asked her friend) to buy the herbal sweets from Taiwan cos I asked for it! Actually my dad had bought some from Guardian. So paiseh leh..hehe..thank u!!

Went out for a while in the afternoon and I managed to run my errands and I got my long boots!!!!! And I also got to taste the pork sandwiches from one of the butchers at Bearwood (which I usually see a queue for). As I was trying on the boots, an elderly woman asked how it felt..if it was comfy..then she also took a pair and said something like she suppose she can return them if they don't fit. So I guess she's buying for someone. So I carried the box ard the supermarket..bought rice n carrots. Hopped over to Iceland to get eggs (wanted to see if they were bigger than Aldi's since they're called LARGE eggs). Then headed home.

Presenting to u my long boots! Hiao hor? Hehe..anyway I decided to buy it cos it's on offer (£17.99) and to alternate with my other pair to make sure my calves are warm..and I'm vain la! Simple design but the sole is good with grips and has pretty warm inner lining and best of all, the "leather" is v soft.



Anyway, here's a pic of supposedly large eggs. Not sure if it's large enough but prob can't quite tell

I bought a block of lard cos I was watching Paul Hollywood's baking show and he used it to make shortcrust pastry..thought of trying.

And here's an update of my mint plant!

Tmr prob will wash my sheets else next 2 weeks will be quite busy to do so (esp to wait for machine to be empty). Tmr will be fri already and L will be back!! I don't have prepare dinner for Poppy and keep telling her to eat her dinner..hehe! And I'll be roaming the city with SK on Sat! And yes, the Frankfurt Christmas market is up at Victoria Sq since last weekend till 22 Dec! So will be checking it out on Sat and of course when R is here!

L called earlier and a vaguely heard her saying they asked her to work there?! Think that's what she said. Anyway she'll be back tmr night..will either see her tmr else maybe Sat evening. 

I'm planning to do some baking tmr..thinking either apple/pear pie or lard biscuits. I googled and read about lard biscuits..I think it's like those "biscuits" that is given at popeyes.

I'm now at 1548 words. Need to cut another 48 words. Hoping to finish by tonight then tomorrow can just submit.

*Added: I'm now at 1496 words! Shall leave it as that. C finally came home (cos L called me another time to check if he was back) and he asked if it was my key sticking at the door. OMGG!! How could I forget to take out the key?! Must have been distracted by Poppy lorr...grrrr..and worried she pounce on my eggs..haha..phew! Ppl will know is my key cos my keychain has my name..hah..Heng it wasn't taken away or no one entered..which goes to show that it's a fairly safe neighbourhood eh? Haha..oops! I must be ageing!
