A Double Celebration - Again!

For the 2nd year, we celebrated both Mother's Day as well as my birthday together.

On Sunday morning, my Mom cooked mee sua with kidney and eggs for my lunar birthday. I had already forgotten about it, until she called to ask me to go over and eat it. But because of our young master, we were running late (after cooking his porridge and feeding him). We had a rushed lunch before dashing to his LNT class.

After Ian's lesson at LNT ended, hubby mysteriously brought us out and refused to say where he was heading to. He had planned to buy me a bag on this day - he had wanted to give me last year as my push cum birthday presents, but we did not manage to choose anything then.

After spending some time choosing and deciding, we picked my first epi leather...



After shopping, we headed to the Korean ginseng Crystal Jade for dinner, as I was craving for kimchi recently. As usual, Hubby refused to tell me where we were going, until the last moments. He decided to do something extraordinary this year, so we did not cut any cake when the clock stroke 12 at night.

No thanks to his hectic project, he was unable to take leave on the actual day, and hence for the first time in recent years, I spent the day alone. I indulged in a facial and a pedicure, before going back to pick up Ian from the babysitter.

Unfortunately, Ian was having a pretty bad rash, and hence I quickly rushed to my Mom's place for a quick dinner before bringing him to see a PD. Hubby also did his best to rush home so that we could go together. I was not too worried about the rashes, because a friend had told me that it could be due to his recent fever. As she had predicted correctly, it was false measles and we did not need to do anything about it.

When we finally settled down at home, Hubby took out the cake that he had hurriedly collected from Northpoint after work, went home to hide it in the fridge, before coming out again to join Ian and me. This year, there was no customised birthday message, because he thought that it was boring to have the same message every year.

Anyway, here is my favourite Black Forest Cake from Four Leaves...*slurp*


See you next year, delicious cake!
