with school starting and all, i had to make sure my time in the office was well spent.
i only see my colleagues for about 24 hours a week and pwoosh, no more.
of course by now, you can tell they are the most irrelevant, painstakingly funny, do-it-yourself people in the world. someone should write a children's book about them. "the little people of the village." tim burton should do a film.
so, it was lynda's birthday.
second time we celebrated together and first time we had to make our own cake.
Recipe for make-or-break your own birthday cake under 10 mins and $10
this is lynda
step one: you need a hell lot of pudding. always buy flavours that complement each other. in this case, we are using caramel and chocolate. always good.
step two: get a motherload of m&ms. in this example, we used minis because lynda is tiny.
step three: CAREFULLY empty the pudding onto a plate. we warn you that puddings might be slippery and tend to fall on your very expensive white prada dress when least expected. we putting aunty emily's (no reference) green and red hand crossed-stitched sweater with the two mating turkeys that you got for christmas instead.
step four: rope in the people around to help. it is vital to make this an enjoyable experience so do not, under any circumstance, throw pudding or m&ms at each other. SPRINKLE the m&ms over the pudding.
FINISH: there you go, a scrumptious hearty pudding cake that jiggles when u do.

besides the fact that it looked like paint, it was surprising good to munch on. the m&ms created this psychedelic colour contortion but if you can get past that fact, all is good!
we started taking really stupid shots.
my colleagues in order of sane-ness: mel, me, lynda, ian.
me and ian headed to town to catch Iron Man (2008)
no comments on the show cos i'm heading to watch with my boys on friday. they will torture me with medival methods which is alot worse than killing me. but i can't wait to see the boys reactions when
(highlight if u don't mind a spoiler)
iron man first steps out in his suit out of the caves. the gorgeous steel/metal suit. oh and when pepper potts is in her blue dress. the fight sequence was quite disappointing and of course, i can't wait to see their faces when the other iron man (obidiah) comes on from the dark and starts attacking people. AND of course THE moment was when iron man flew for the first time! OK LAH THE MOVIE WAS AWESOME. there i said it. end of spoiler.
we headed to haji by foot to have some nasi padang but opted for overly spicy mee soto of which got me craving for dessert so we walked over to beach road market for belgium waffles but that was closed. so we shopped for a p-cap at army market for jo. then we decided to walk from beach road to desker to see trannies and from desker to owen road for cake.
Domus Cafe is a damn nice tucked away little treasure. On their wall, it says DOMUS stands for Directly Opposite MUStafa which is a outright LIE! it was not only far but confusing and this is coming from a girl who lived in the area for 21 years and has best friends living there for at least 5 years.
when we finally found it, it just took my breath away.
these are interior and one courtyard shot of the place. nicely decorated and very quaint.
nice hor!?
we settled for a Chocolate Pecan Pie with Vanilla Bean I-Scream and A Chocolate Chip Cheesecake with Peanut Butter I-Scream.
it was, really awesome. esp the pecan pie. soft but chewy and the biscotti was baked to perfection. it was buttery and soft but not too soft so it just melts into your mouth. the cheesecake was alright, though it didn't really agree with the peanut butter ice-cream. it was passable, in my opinion. could have used a lighter kind of cheese.
the service, was well pleasant but lacking. the staff were very attentive but kept forgetting our orders. the pinnacle was when one of the waitresses broke a glass behind the counter and yelled something. she apologised very loudly and frantically to the manager. well, as ian said, it's part of service to break a glass but never break the confidence of a customer.
i would say go back again. it was nice, chill, lush. food good, and service could be good. overall damn good exp.
and thanks to ian, i laughed and cam-whored until my mouth hurt.
oh as like get lost thursdays, i archived our walking route.
