Nonsense XXX & Happy Birthday Ena! greetings from Hey Hey Hotpot & P.osh Brownies

Woke up this morning with a neck and shoulder strain,
washed my face and looked into the mirror.
Saw a stranger in the reflection.

WAH LAU!!!
I forgot! that my hair is
no longer messy and mop like.

Really woke up when I realize my hair is back to being short.
haiiiiiiya!

Anyways, yesterday was fun!
But my Love Me Program has gone to the dogs.

The storm hit early afternoon and I was late for work.
No students came for swimming till the last hour.
1 little girl called Trisha!!!
hahaha!

In between the wait...
We were sooo BORED!

Gerry tried to do some work,
CK tending to the shop, make sure no one steals anything.
hahah!
Jeremy in between breaking window grills was
thinking of tidying and shifting the shelves in the shop.
He just wants to
RENOVATE!!
I was reading newspaper.


The funniest & gross-est(?) thing happened when
(to protect the rep of the not so innocent, the person in question will now be called XXX from here on.)
XXX spotted some laminated number cards.
The kind that beauty contestants use to pin on their clothes.
Only bigger.

First XXX put it over XXX's head and pranced ard.
I laughed so hard when I saw that,
'coz it immediately reminded me of
something in Thailand.
And then XXX got a brain wave and went to imitate
with the help of a pen,
the exact thing I was reminded about.

Do you know what I'm talking about?
Hint : Use your imagination.
The gross-est one is probably it!

When the photo opportunity arose, I couldn't ignore it.
Sadly the picture with the pen couldn't really be seen clearly.

So XXX's friend, chipped in with the help of some durian paste
thingy that's wrapped in plastic.

O.M.Goodness!!!
This time, I laughed till I was sitting on the floor lo.

We got so rowdy Gerry threatened to throw us out of the shop.
MUAHAHAHAAaaaAAAaa!!

But she wouldn't have done so la!
She was laughing also...enjoying the drama.
Accomplice!!
=X

Ena's mini Birthday Celebration

It was impromptu, the where and what time all made at the last minute
First we wanted to go Rice Table but it was fully booked.
On a thurs...
So disappointed!
But nothing we can do.

Then we were ping-ponging between a Thai buffet a River Valley,
a dunno what at Bugis and then finally Tao's.
Yes, the one that's always advertising on TV.

So was to meet up at Dhoby Ghaut with the babes.
And since we're at the place where they have the
(try and say it in 1 breath!)
I've-heard-about-them-from-a-long-time-ago-ever-since-Grace-put-the-thought-into-my-head-that-it's-so-yummy brownies,
I thought we should get a birthday brownie for Ena as a suprise
since we didn't get her a birthday cake.

And guess what!!!

We saw Ena there...

HAHAHAHHAaaaaa!!!!
no la...

Met Fi right in front of the place 'coz she also had the same thot,
you know what they say about great minds...
*wink*

Digress: We always end up NOT meeting at the place we say we're going to meet at!!
Super alot of mis-com.
I need to go for PR and EQ lessons!

Finally found P.osh.
We wanted the ones that say 'Happy Birthday'
but those have got to be ordered in advance.
So we bought our brownies individually.
They're so pretty!
=)




The shop's at Dhoby Ghaut Exchange.
Swear it's the first time I've been there, I need to get out more!
Is Gerry holding a pie from Pie-Kia, the store next to P.osh?
I've not tried those before, is it good?

We made our way to Paradiz Centre and waited for Ena & CP.
Standing in front of Tao's we were frozen by the aircon vents,
blasting with their 50023 horse power might.

And even though Fi had already booked at Tao's,
the birthday girl preferred hot pot and buffet
which came in the form of Hey Hey Hotpot,
which was on the left of Tao's.

CK told the person-in-charge that we'd change our minds.
He was obviously quite unhappy and tried to persuade us to stay...
Oh well, in the end I think that guy was quite gracious about it.


So we made ourselves comfortable at Hey Hey, while waiting for
the main attraction.
hahaa!

Ordered ALOT of food when main attraction arrived
'coz we've CP to back us up!

We had the herbal chicken soup base and a little bird
shared with us that the last time they went to Hey Hey,
they were actually served by our local TV star Terence Cao.

Apparently, Terence Cao also shared with the little bird, the best way to cook the food there
& also little stories about why they served some dishes there.
e.g. the custard dumplings (I know!! it's really custard!) have to be cooked for 2mins for best taste.



The best reaction was from Ena,
when told that Terence Cao is the boss of the place or at least have a share in it.

Ena : Huh? Really?
Little Bird : Don't you see his pictures all over the wall?
Ena : I thought he always come and eat here!! (aka the frequent visitor)

Check out the frequent visitor plastered on the walls.


The beef there is excellent!! Sliced nicely and not the kind with alot of fats and ligament,
on the whole, everything was great.
The dessert, is it called osmanthus(?), red dates thingy made into jelly also super shiok.
We ate till our tummys nearly burst and people from surrounding tables turned to look at us.
*oops!*
hahaha!

And we still managed to open a brand new stomach for dessert!
The yummy brownies!!
They are so thick, gooey and chewy!
Fwah!!!!
I feel like eating one right now!



My favorite is the ones with M&Ms!
*salivate*



Birthday girl forced to take many pictures with her brownies,
until the candle was burned till it was quite short.
hahaha!
She had to wait for quite a while to eat them.
Maybe thats why the brownies taste so good!
