It is our anniversary month and he did well. A few days ago, he asked me if I was free on 23rd as he wanted to bring me out for dinner. I said ok. I did not even ask where. And then I remembered, that it was to celebrate our anniversary though one day before the actual.
He came home from work, and rested. He waited for me to finish an important phonecall I needed to make before we proceeded for dinner. He still did not tell me where we were going, except that we were going to a french restaurant. He himself has not been there. It was a new adventure for both of us.
When we arrived there, we were greeted by a frenchman, the owner - Ba'ton. Don't know how, we just started talking and eventually joined tables with two other guests there. So 5 of us chatted like we were some old friends throughout dinner.
Dinner was really good and company was warm. Ba'ton kept telling us that this restaurant is not a restaurant, but his home, and it was born out of love and shared with us his love story. It was such heartwarming to receive some sharing of love from someone we didn't even know but felt like we knew him forever...
Food was really good.. it was authentic and very much like home-cooked. Hubby commented that he could tell that the food was cooked with passion and love, which very much spoke of Ba'ton. I'd say he is a funny and really open guy, often hopping from one table to another not to make his customers happy, but to make customers his friends...
So if you are keen on french food and enjoy the comfort of a cozy ambience, check out Ma Masion. By the way, Ma Masion also means My home, in french.
Blessed Christmas everyone. :)

Drama, Drama
Weather was cold. Flight was delayed. Thea didn't want dinner. Didn't sleep on board (me, I mean). No nasi bryani (thank God nasi lemak was not bad). Drizzling when arrived. Car cannot start. Thea vomitted. Argue with hubby. Went to hospital (thank God for Bee). Feed Thea medicine. Unpack bags. Repack bags. Received inspiration to write (not this blog though). And it is now 3:47am.
Shucks, got to wake up early tomorrow...
Hmm, strangely, amidst the drama - still feeling peaceful and calm. Nice! :)

Puzzle Completed!
Finally completed the puzzle this morning in between the have-tos. Turned out to be a beautiful piece, with much help from hubby, Thea, Bee and guardian angel.
Hubby kinda got addicted to it and we are ready to embark on our next piece soon enough, as soon as we come back from our family holiday. Can't wait... :)

Blue & Purple
I got myself busy since yesterday afternoon with this 1000 pieces jigsaw puzzle set that I bought quite recently. It is the one which glows in the dark.
Guardian angel and Thea was helping me sort out the colours and also to helped to fixed the puzzle together. I must say that progress is quite well.
Nevertheless, it has come to a point now that guardian angel and I can't really tell the bloody difference between blue and purple and we were nearly bonkers! We laughed at each other frequently and it was enjoyable. Hubby thought he was such great help when he managed to find one or two pieces that fits. Well, better than nothing.. haha!
Guardian angel commented that we might take about 4 days to complete it if we diligently took time and effort to put them altogether. I don't really have a time frame, except that I hope I can frame it up in time and give it to bestie as a christmas pressie. :)

Sing Sung Bluessss
We wanted to go Karaoke on Sunday, but Bee & Prissy was not free and suggested it on a Monday night instead since Tuesday (today) is a public holiday.
So after dinner at Jon's, we proceeded to Karaoke at about 10ish.
It was really, really fun.... can't believe that these young people were singing old soul songs! haha! And boy, hubby was hogging the microphone, and Bee can really sing! It was awesome to hear Prissy finally sing too! And I must say.. not bad, not bad...
You know, my brothers are really funny... they always make me laugh. I am so grateful for them. :)
We sang till the last song and left Karaoke at about 3am. First time ever I stayed at a karaoke till this late and Bee was saying that it is the earliest he has ever left a karaoke SOBER! haha!
I had a pretty swell time though by the time I got home, I was D-E-A-D. But still look bout 5-10 minutes to do some reading before dozing off...
2 nights in a row now that I get to sleep on my bed.. ahhh... feels like heaven....

Movie Night
Last night, hubby and I went to Gardens for dinner and to catch Narnia. It was a planned outing. What wasn't planned was to catch HP7 (again for me, that is) right after Narnia.
Narnia ended at about 11:55pm and HP7 started at 11:45pm and when we walked into the the cinema for HP7, there was only 4 of us (2 strangers and hubby and I). The whole cinema was empty. Well, it is not unexpected since it is a Sunday night!
We got home at about 2ish and was dead tired. It was time well spent with hubby and hubby and I was discussing how come we keep saying that we ought to do these more often but never get about doing it! Haha!
Tonight will be another night of family. :D

December
So fast time has flown, and it is now the month of December and this friday is already the last day of school for Thea. There are already a few activities lined up for her and I am excited for her for the fun that I trust she will soon experience.
I will be working on several stuffs.. a long term one and also several that are coming up which I too trust will fulfill me. Actually, if I hold no judgments on my moments, each moment is freeing and is an enjoyment and a fulfilment.
I am looking forward to catch up with friends, and also to get started on a few things that I have been prolonging for the longest time. The new PC will definitely help. :)
Have a lovely December everyone!
