i never leave home without them, rain or shine. in fact, they tag along wherever i go. :)

i was told i'm able to wear black polo tee instead of the usual white shirt for work so i dragged other half out of the house to go shopping with me. yeah yeah, its really sad i dont even own a polo tee. we grabbed the chance to get a bite in the city since we were there already. lunch was swift cos we were both famished. had the usual.... vietnamese beef noodles or pho (the way the vietnamese call it). as if lunch wasnt enough, we bought some pastries from a highly raved bakery, Savoy (opposite paddys market).

  1. butter roll with a light spread of cream and topped with coconut shavings. VERY BUTTERY = VERY VERY NICE. i'm going back for more.
  2. milkyway. looks very much like those selling at mama shops but it tastes more like those tiny floury balls we ate when we were kids. remember? those come in transparent packs with cartoon animal pics?!? btw, tis pastry has got the best texture in the entire world. it beats my favourite pineapple tarts back home.
  3. yam pastry that is small and cute. color is pretty too. i'm not a yam fanatic but i heard so much abt their yam, i knew i have to try. its not bad. actually i dont know what is good so cant comment much.
  4. german which looks dark and handsome. HA! it looks like its made from dark chocolate and has almond slices sprinkled on top of it. NIGHTMARE! dont know if its me or what. it smells like chlorine (or bleach) and taste like it too (smells like chlorine and i still eat???? cos i thought my acute sense of smell may be wrong and so i confirmed it with my sense of taste). i spat it out immediately, rinsed my mouth 3 times and ate a couple of seaweed crackers to neutralise the taste in my mouth. should i complain to the shop?
  5. yam roll. havent try it yet. still suffering from post bleachy-german. =(

gosh, look at the crowds! are we back in singapore? blame it on the weekend. (btw, tis is market city right above the paddys market). *shudder* we quickly left the place.

walked by tis guy who cuts out side profiles of pple for jus 2 bucks. he's usually surrounded by curious onlookers but today he did not have a customer so we decided to give it a go. other half went for it first then it was my turn. see my half-hearted smile. i was so embarrassed for pple were stopping to see and still i must smile for the camera. *sweat* they were all on my left (not caught on camera).

sunscreen is the prevention step. i'd recommend Niks Professional face saver - spf30 from novena square. it doesnt cause breakout cos its a physical barrier type of sunscreen (there're 2 types basically). for existing freckles, see a doc or dermatologist. i've a classmate who saw a doc or derm for cream and pills and now her freckles are gone. during her "treatment", she has to wear sunscreen also.
