8 Oct 2024 – Family’s Legacy for 小龍包XiaoLongBao
Sat: Pineapples,Rubatans,Mangosteens,MiniWaterMelons,DukuLangsats,Longans/local fruits. Beef,Chicken,Mutton including PorkSatay – this traditional Hainanese style satay is served with a peanut gravy that comes with a pineapple puree and only in ChineseSatayStalls will you be able to find this as all MalaySatayStalls do not serve pork. Lots of other yummy foods like Laksa,KFC,PizzaHut,RotiPrata&IceCream for this afternoon’s family PotLuck gathering. From #6&his mother, tusen hjertelig takk to all – his record for satay is so far 8sticks.
This grandmother is never too old to spend time with grandchildren in the water where it is safest from breaking any bones – hahaha!
Sun: another short trip for mother&son to Universal before flying back to WnterWonderLand. Hi-Chew+Feastables are the top of the list to pack from this trip! But have been informed that dental care is free for kids in Norway!
#6 trip started with his favourite小龍包XiaoLongBao@鼎泰豐DinTaiFung/Jewel and tonight back there ending his 2024SIN-Trip and breaking the family’s record of 23XLB from Kiera’s 22! Will miss not having around but grateful for the time together and cherish that memory – no matter where my flock is located, they are always in my heart. So proud of him, the youngest/13 of my flock for flying here on his own for this trip.
There are no goodbyes for us. Wherever you are, you will always be in my heart – Gandhi
Drama from the neighbouring block across the street – was informed that an elderly man fell asleep with the stove on and there were 3fire engines here upon returning from the airport but fortunately he is OK. At this age&stage of our life it is not easy to be completely without any family,friends,caregivers,support,etc – remembering what also recently happened to the neighbour directly next door!
Mon: Happy 82Bday to dearest bro Leslie – may there be many many more Bdays to celebrate for my only surviving brother in our sibling flock. Nice to catch up with ShookWah+others – tkx to Carmel&Soon for the ride back to the EastSide.
Thank you for scrumptious dinner@Angie’sOysterBar&Grill and glad to see Ivy with the help of the strong young men making those steps up&down to this location.
Appreciations to Chris(owner of Angie’s) for accommodating NorwegianChocolateHearts into the desserts.
Needless to say, champagne&wines are out of this world and for one who hardly takes alcohol nowadays, had a sip of some of these.
Tue: thank you to a functioning washing machine for doing its full-time work yesterday&today.
Hello dear nephew Vincent back from Perth/Australia for a few days – good to catch up and an excuse to take a break for cleaning&clearing within the 4-walls.
@88HongKongRoastMeatSpecialist/ChinaSt,FarEastSq – located in the heart of CBD&ChinaPlace conservation area, this is an award-winning commercial conservation project opened in 1999. The site, dating back to the 1820s, was also the first landing point for many early Chinese immigrants.
