Feast for Two

Despite feeling under the weather, Anderson just could not resist our lunch plans which we had planned a week ago. We had finally found a Saturday when the both of us were free to do stuff together - a rarity considering our busy schedules and how Saturdays are usually Youth Fellowship designated days.

So with our food voucher in hand, we made our way to Shang Palace for our wedding treat courtesy of Jo's office. Good thing we decided against inviting more people to join us (which, was our initial plan as we were clueless as to the price range and had thought that the amount we were presented was rather generous) as we ended up topping up the bill even with just the two of us eating!

Whilst we weren't able to physically share the food with you, we've decided to share our yummy Chinese set lunch through some pictures -

House Fix

We haven't even had our 'official' house warming yet and already our house is showing signs of compromise - suppose that's what you've got to be prepared for when you take over a house that's been around for close to 30 years. If not for our attention to detail one weekend while we were doing our weekly house cleaning, we probably would not have realised that there was water seeping into the walls, causing it to become all puffy and wrinkly.

We later found out that this was due to a faulty float in our water tank and a burst pipe. Thankfully it was nothing too major and that we had detected the problem early enough. Still, damage has been done and it looks like we've got some repainting ahead of us in the coming months ...
