17th Aug 08

After the great fun at the Tao Lounge, today we woke up very late...hahah..we skip our breakfast and straight away to have lunch at Sri Rambai, this is because we need to send my hubby car for servicing. After that, we went to Pacific shopping for whole day but we insist need to reached MIL place at 8pm.

When i was at MIL house on 17th Aug, my MIL asked me to take some of the little chai sim to plant at my home. hehehe.....see the photos, now i got so many vegetables at my garden.
