It's my huntor's 13th birthday (hubby - mentor) hee hee! He is King for a day... well he is the King in the house of course =) and this post is dedicated to him.. I think this is the longest post I've ever written.
We celebrated his special day throughout the whole weekend.
We agreed to go to 3 places, where we both liked to go to...
Please note:he was not forced, bribed nor eluded to go to these places okay? hihi
Since we both love vintage, books (okay books only me) photography and japanese food we went to places that has all those lovely (and yummy) stuff.
Day 1, 11 December: Our first stop, Books Actually via Chinatown!
We went there to see Shinzi Katoh's featured art works and designs, books (of course!) and the vintage typewriters and cameras and other memorabillas
When we exited the Chinatown MRT on the way to Club Street where Books Actually is, we were greeted by eye catching items and this little guy here made me smile =)
Cheap but true goodness, amazing colors, including christmas colours. The Reds and Blues and Greens and Golds and hot Pinks were all around us... Christmas is in Chinatown!... and I have not even started to hang a single christmas ball at home (what a shame...)
Where's my Christmas Spirit?! you might ask...
But really, I am just waiting for the icing to settle from Mister Huntor's cake and I will be starting to embellish the whole house with Christmas charms! *wink*
Shophouses with coloured shutters of blue
and yellow lined up the alleys
and red lanterns hung above the street that added to the festive splendor at 32 degrees!
Our next stop was at PEEK to check out the new and old lomography cameras, the holgas, the legoholgas, the superheadz and some polaroids too...! well I have no photos to share on that but you can visit, their site anytime to check it out =)
And then we got a little hungry... and walk over to Cityhall and then to Sakae Sushi for our Sushi parteh! We waited in line to get seated at the sushi belts, but to our dismay, no more sushi in production... we ended up eating the usual teriyaki don.
I felt like going back to Ann Siang Hill and sit at one of those coffee shops painted in red or Parisian inspired... but it's a looong walk back! so Teriyako-don it is!
Day 2, 12 December: We went to church early in the morning to give Thanks... for a blessed day and a blessed life.
At home, I cooked some spaghetti (his favourite) and brought him a little cupcake with a little candle and a small birthday present.
The feeling is just lovely, even though the girls are not around to share this happy day with us... we feel so blessed to be celebrating together and to have such lovely girls.
Hope you're feeling lovely each and every moment.
