Shopping spree in preparation for CNY

Bought your new clothes yet? I did, and the theme this year would be....

"Casual and branded"... read, "B-R-A-N-D-E-D". *grin*

Never knew buying branded stuffs can be that fun and shiok. BUT then again, later I'll get it from him when he sees the credit card bill. Let me think a way how to hypnotize him to see different numbers. Hmm... normally, some "job" with some blowing kind would do the trick...*blushed* shucks! have to be harder and longer this time

Meanwhile, I'm thinking where to go next to make some more purchases... Heck! It's not what I want, it's my hands which can't stop signing on the dotted lines on the tiny slips of paper. Who says it's so difficult to sign on the dotted lines, huh?

Now, that's the only thing which makes me look forward to CNY, wearing all these squeaky clean nice nice new new clothes. And putting these nice frocks and shirts on the kids as well. Abuhthen, what else there is to look forward to?

Sigh!!! I'm dreading the journey home, as dh says "let's drive at odd hours to beat the traffic jam". Last year, I think we were stuck on the PLUS for 5 hours.

Now, the big plan of his is to have our supper on the eve's eve night time, with the kids in pyjamas, equipped with pillows and bolsters in the car, after which, head home when everybody's sleeping in the dead of the night, and reach back kampung before dawn breaks. Maybe still can have breakfast of Ipoh's famous dim sum before it's jammed with crowds coming from the big cities, then only go to sleep! Ingenious of him, right? Oh dear...

Is your hubby going to read this? You know, we always travel when the kids are sleeping, either late at night or very early in the morning.

5 hours only? We spent 12 hours last year from SG-Ipoh. Hopefully won't be such a nightmare this time. Will also travel after supper, like your family. :D

My Friday favorite time of the week

 Long ago, I used to look forward to every Friday 5.30pm. I would rush to prepare dinner and settle all that was needed to be done before 4....
