Some greenery indoors

Found!! Green stuff indoors....at Midvalley Megamall. Try taking a picture without a single human being in it. Quite a challenge. It's Sunday night...and the usual mad rush to finish up stuff in preparation for Monday is in full swing. This includes the usual dipping of mood when faced with the dreaded Monday Clinic!!! Boohoohoo

A pleasant surprise

 I bought some stuff...and had to use the credit card. The pleasant young man who served me told me I was to collect my token one floor above. And there I went.

 Here are my tokens...with peter rabbit designs on it

And I got ONE of these plates free:) Certainly a pleasant and welcome surprise. You know how sometimes you buy more stuff just so you're entitled to a free gift. I am proud to announce that this was not the case this morning:) All purchases were needed!!!

No no No

Sometimes we make bad choices. This morning after mass, I chose to have breakfast here.It was daylight robbery, RM12:99 for two small pieces of toast, eggs with salmon ( no sign of salmon but you can just about make out the taste if you chew slowly) and tepid water-ed down coffee which tasted so yucky I left half of it behind. Things to eat whilst at Austen Chase would include some of the cakes...but I'ld stay away from the breakfast deals. It's just not worth the trouble.

Am home sipping homemade nescafe Gold with milk.

A review of Min International Salon!

Min international is near celli Cakes....Finnegans, Burger King and RHB bank. There! I've named all the main places of interest near by in that one sentence. After intense internet researching over two Saturdays ( I kid you not)....I decided that Min Internationl would be just the place for my next hair cut. When I entered the shop the smell of ammonia hits you gently....and it slowly envelopes you. I had a slight wheeze in the first 5 minutes of adjustment. After which time, I felt well enough to look around. I called for an appointment. Lucky that I did. The place was full. Most girls were having their hair coloured/permed. So its true what the net says, Korean hair Salons do different perms. I was served within 10 minutes. The lady who washed my hair was pleasant and chatty. The stylist who did my hair make a face when I indicated I wanted it shorter but smiled when I said not too short. ( I suspect he didn't want to make my face look any rounder than it was entering the shop..clever man). He appeared to know what I wanted. But I was nervous just the same. As I sat there waiting to have my hair trimmed, I had this strong urge to walk away and live with the mop.

I'm very glad I stayed. the hair cut was done very nicely. And he layered and layered and layered it. Apparently I have a lot of hair. I think my round head makes a bob hair-do the most appropriate style for now. Until I lose the double chin and then maybe we'll think about getting a slightly different look.

Love the hair today:) I'll recommend Min International for a good hair cut. RM60!

Banana bread

I found a picture!! Of the banana bread WNN baked for us. Here it is on my desk.....:)

Please try this!!

Now let me tell you why this is a great scrub. It's gentle. The sugar bits dissolve giving you a rather warm feeling. ( nice nice) And the smell is DIVINE! Puts me in an excellent mood each and every time. So please get yourself one. You won't regret it.

Bread for dinner!

We had bread for dinner today. With a dollop ( a very small one) of potato renamed potato salad by the owner of the shop. Some nerve! It was tasty so I'm giving it a 7/10. The sweet mustard dressing dripped like a small leaky cauldron.

Some delicious Olio and banana bread

I have friends who cook:) YOu may appreciate how this is a lovely thing if you realise that I do not cook. I did cook once in the dark ages. Thankfully the ghastly memories have morphed into something nicer. So now, when I recall cooking, I choose only to remember the successful concoctions I did. AJ cooked olio and we had a sample of it. WNN baked banana bread and I had it two consecutive mornings for breakfast. You may wonder where the picture of the banana bread is....I forgot to take a picture. When I did remember, there was only 1.34 parts of the bread left.

I want...but I don't need!

Pssssst.....wouldn't you also want to be a proud owner of this little-wee-palm-size gadget?

My dinner was an interrupted one due to a certain kitty who insisted on rubbing his/her body against my calves. It didn't help that the tail whisk intermittent on my calves too. Most unpleasant experience. I will say this; cats are great hypocrites. I glared at the kitty and told it in no uncertain terms to BUZZ off. The annoying kitty purred even more and sat beside my calves making sure the darn tail came in in contact every few seconds.

I'm more of a dog person. Gimme a puppy anyday. ( Could I ask for a puppy just like the one in the Andrex advert please? thanks)

I'm fessing up now. I am asthmatic and have been having morning dips in the last 3 months. Still resistant to the idea of in inhaler. Don't ask me why even I can't answer it. What I have done is...hoovered yesterday night ...not missing any nook and cranny. And so no more wheezing. Which means those bloody mast cells haven't been releasing all those nasty nasty histamines,

A hoovering session a day keeps the wheezing at bay!

have a nice short haircut...

It's time for a haircut. The ends are curling out and the top is flat. Picture this right now and you'll understand why I feel buck ugly most mornings.
