more christmasy stuffs

Was at Paragon yesterday to do blood test. So went looking to see if can buy anything for the gift exchange on Monday. Walked around and saw the newly opened, Duchy Originals. Expensive stuff I would say. Think it was featured once in magazine or somewhere. Nothing to buy there, but I did contemplate on whether buying foodstuff is a good idea. Marks and Spencer have some butter cookies in quaint looking tins. But paying $20 for a tin (small) of cookies, sounds a little extravagant.

So went over to Ngee Ann city to look look see see. Was quite hungry because have to fast for the blood test. So went to take a bite at one of the shop in basement. Had sandwich for $10. Rich hor? It comes with a drink and salad.

So today was at Taka again because haven't buy the Christmas present yet. So walk and walk, and bought the goldfish red bean pancake (I like to eat this one!), still hot from the oven.. yumz!

Was there from 1130am, and wandered until 130pm before finally decided on something. Decided to get something practical and useful.. as usual... Gift wrapping service is provided but the queue was damn long! The helpers are young kids (probably doing their temp job during this school holiday) but they're quite pro in their job. Once they decided that the wrapping is not up to standard, they'll rip it up and redo.

Anyway, mission accomplished so can go home. But before that, took some pictures of the Christmas tree (told ya every mall has one, didn't I?)

Was walking in front of the hotel, when chanced upon this sports car.


there's another one behind.. exactly same same

Think there's a wedding going on and the owner of these cars are probably one of the guest or something... Oh well.. the lives of the rich and famous I guess.. Us mere mortals will just stand one side and gawk.
