I’ve been meaning to blog about the Stylo Fashion Festival which ended the weekend before last. But my kids were down with the flu last weekend and I didn’t get a chance to sort out all the photos.
Suffice to say, it was a grand event attended by the who’s who of high society. It was [...]

I don’t even want to mention what we did this past weekend. Well, ‘nothing’ is the word except a quick run to the grocery store to get more bread and milk.

The latest idea seems to be to invest in gold [...]

I don’t like carrying out wads of cash when I go shopping. I prefer to have my mind free to focus on spending money rather than worrying about a bulging handbag, know what I mean?

Did I tell you I went to the Tangs Sale? The shelves weren’t bare like I thought because there was still plenty of stock left when I got there. In fact, the crowd was pretty thin. Maybe it was because I went on a weekday afternoon when most folks would be at work.

More and more wedding shops are springing up. Have you noticed? Well, it’s no wonder. Last night, we wanted to have dinner at a Chinese restaurant. Yep, too much Western food lately so we wanted a change.

I’ve been out so much this past week I’ve hardly had the time to blog. The girls and I went downtown practically every day. Serious. Not that we really had that much of shopping to do. But it was the school holidays and we were at loose ends.
So I took them to Sungei Wang which [...]
