The Flu Bugs

After a week plus of hacking coughs, snotty noses and Bub's teething periods, Hubs finally caught our yuck germs. Look what I found in bed last nite :)

A pair of flu bugs passed out in unison, clutching onto their bantal busuk for dear life.

 Bubs and I are down with the nastiest, yuckiest flu bug ever. We've been using up boxes of Kleenex, sipping on hot drinks and being grumpy together. Hubs has been amazing, getting up in the middle of the night to get me Panadol, to rock Bubs back to sleep each time he wakes up. Can't wait for this bug to be gone. Meh.

The Swollen Eye and Elmo

Bubs had a bit of a swollen eye, it didn't look that serious but Hubs insisted we had it checked out. We went to the doctor's first thing that morning so there wasn't too long of a wait. Thankfully, the doctor said it looked like it's probably just a bit of an allergy to maybe dust mites and told us to give him some Aerius.

I got bored waiting for our turn and snapped a photo of my electric blue ballet flats. Bubs got impatient and decided he wanted to be in the photo.

After that, we went mall trawling again *grins* We'd a gift voucher so we took Bubs to the toy department and watch him go nuts there. He's in this Sesame Street phase and he seemed to really like Elmo so we got him a talking Elmo which he adored to bits. I was actually looking for a Tickle Me Elmo which used to be really popular a whole back but I think they stopped selling it here? It was kind of cute watching Bubs carry Elmo everywhere he went, hugging and petting it.

 Elmo tagged along with us everywhere we went.

This is Elmo right before the Incident, Elmo's fur is still plush and has that new toy smell. If you look at the blue shopping bag on the chair, it contained a bottle of apple cider vinegar. Moral of the story: never put a glass bottle full of strong smelling liquid on a restaurant chair and forget about it. I knocked it over, the bottle shattered and the whole restaurant was filled with the tangy smell of apple cider vinegar *blushes* Elmo's fur got soaked and Bubs was wailing because we wouldn't let him hold Emo. Lets just say we left a generous tip along with the bill and couldn't leave the restaurant fast enough.

Embracing the 80s and my Dotty Lunch Buddies

Ever since I've gotten my pair of treggings, I've started embracing the 80s.

People, I present to you Exhibit A: the jeggings. Part jeans, part leggings, in a stone wash *gasp* no less! Snicker all you like, these are as soft as pyjamas and oh so comfortable to wear, especially on days where you feel like dragging yourself to work. All I can say is thank goodness my office dress code is casual.

The best part of my weekday is lunching out with my lunch buddies.

This is me trying to snap what I thought would be an artistic shot. You can see the Glamazon laughing at me and Le Petite took this photo of the both of us trying to snap artistic photos.

Le Petite and my BFF are often mortified by my embarrassing antics during lunch and wisely chose to ignore me while I was busy snapping photos of them. Love Le Petite's pink polka dotted phone cover and the natural, totally unedited light flare behind my BFF.

The Glamazon is embracing the 80s too, she was also decked out in this gorgeous polka dot dress. She very kindly shielded her face for me so I wouldn't need to crop it out. Told you I've the best lunch buddies.

Of Waffles & Pancakes

Usually on weekdays, I'm rushed for time and have a quick breakfast of muesli with yogurt or a takeaway from the office canteen.

Roost's gorgeous shot of waffles and recipe stopped me right in my tracks. I wish I'd time for something as decadent as this in the mornings!

That got me inspired to look for more brilliant breakfast options.

Bet this Yoda pancake would delight any Star Wars fan.

How cute are these bite sized Poptarts on sticks?

These pancakes are literally edible pieces of art! Guaranteed to bring a smile to any kid, big or small alike :)

What is your dream breakfast?
