It was a strange sort of day yesterday. Early in the morning, we went to the International Airport to pick up VR, expecting that her flight had landed at 02:10AM. I’d had every intention of going to bed early and setting the alarm to get up around 1AM to get showered and ready to go, […]
This morning, a toasted cheese and tomato sandwich was created out of love by one woman for another. And most disturbingly, this blatant act of perversion resulted in pleasure – for the woman who made the sandwich, the joy that comes from cooking something for a loved one; for the woman who ate the sandwich, […]
Thank you to everyone who left a comment in response to the recent hateful comments left by (we hope) an ex-reader of this site. I’m sure I have conveyed in a number of ways in recent posts how much I appreciate all of your readership, your support and your friendship. I think I said before […]
Hello all. I would like to draw your attention to this charming comment left in response to one of my recent posts about Jac having been ill. The person who wrote this little heartfelt gem calls himself DocChuck. Just want to let you know that I am saying “Bye-Bye” to your Blog. My wife and […]
Recently, Sumo Salad promoted their newly opened store at Carousel with a person dressed in a sumo wrestler suit walking around the shopping centre with a woman giving out Sumo Salad brochures. I asked the sumo wrestler if I could take his/her (I couldn’t tell the gender of the person in the suit) picture, and […]
Poor Jac has been sick overnight and for most of today. It must’ve been around 4am when, still in bed all dopey and half-asleep, I thought I heard the sound of someone being violently ill in the loo. Unfortunately, it was not a dream, and someone had indeed been sick in the loo. Jac’s been […]
Juji and I went shopping today in town, and I’m really tired. I’ll try to post tomorrow about the yummy food we ate. In the meantime, here’s Pixel enjoying the new bookshelves we had delivered yesterday. She jumped up to the top (they are five levels high) where she watched most interestedly while I arranged […]

Since neither of us gets back to work (well work for Jac, back to thesis/uni for me) until Monday, we decided to go shopping again for bookshelves on Friday. We’d made a number of unsuccessful shopping excursions on previous occasions, but just couldn’t seem to find the right bookshelves to buy. We ended up going […]
We had dinner when Juji’s boyfriend got home from work. I was drooling in anticipation as the meatballs bubbled in the cream sauce in the cast iron frying pan. She tweaked this original IKEA recipe. I was busy sorting out the laundry and unpacking while she was cooking, so I wasn’t able to pay attention […]
