Pictorial Updates on What's Going On in Josh's Life - Part 2

The previous pictorial updates had loads of missing pictures where the food is concerned, so here's part 2. You guys didn't think that I took so little photos only, did you?

1st Attempt to make muffins... using a microwave oven. Added cubed kiwi and choco chips into the oatmeal mixture:



Looks pretty good? The top was like a biscuit while the bottom was pretty crumbly. Not bad stuff though.

Dinner @ Jack's Place:



Went to watch CATS - The Musical; Turned up 5mins late and had to wait 20mins to be able to enter.


Home-cooked dinner:

Chicken leg, meatball, tomatoes, green veges, tofu puffs, vermicelli in ginseng chicken soup. A tad bit too salty but I loved it.

Checked out Iluma, the new mall opposite Bugis Junction:

Had coffee and cake @ coffee bean while waiting for the movie:

Just a note, Coffee Bean's Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese is delicious. My senior's home made carrot cake could give it a good fight though.

Had a little fun with the camera since it was still early:


Dinner @ The French Stall (along Serangoon Road):

The food was heavenly, I tell you.

Starters:-
1) Pumpkin soup:
2) Escargot:

Main Course:-
1) Grilled Dory on Mashed Potatoes:

2) Sirloin Steak with Grilled Potatoes:
One of the best steak I've ever tasted.

And, it's cooked just right - medium rare. I salivate at the mere remembrance.

Dessert:-
1) Giant Profiterole:

2) Warm chocolate cake:
Looks pretty ordinary, but it's so good.

...such that I'm all smiles. =p

Started hiking/training at Bukit Timah Nature Reserve in prep for the upcoming Mount K trip 2 in June:


Sports mates in DLS - Dragonboat, Running, Bowling and now hiking. =p :

That's me and my DB partner/running mate/team mate.

Trip off Singapore shores, to a nearby island called Ubin. Kinda brings back many nostalgic memories.

There were many many people headed there on this public holiday, such that the queue for the bumboats led straight up the stairs, into the streets.


First visit to Chek Jawa, thanks to ZY's info that that day has the lowest tide of the year:

Love the biking around Ubin - gives me an adrenaline rush and plenty of exercise for my quads:


Didn't have much luck with the bikes though - changed a total of 3 bikes in one day. Bike no.1 had an eccentric gear system which left me with a sore ankle and grease-stained hands from having to fix back the disengaged gear chain before I could coax the bike back to the shop to exchange it for bike no.2. Bike no. 2 was great - fantastic gear system and suspension, but got stolen after lunch, hence bike no. 3 came into the picture.

Visited quarries all over Ubin to admire the blue waters surrounded by the natural landscape:

That's me, on bike no. 3, which wasn't as good as bike no. 2, but served me well:




Day 2 of the long weekend began with self-made breakfast, using whatever I could find in my fridge:


Basically, breakfast consisted of a two-eggs omelette made up of cubed potatoes, coarse black pepper, Italian seasoning, Basil, Tabasco sauce and cheese:


...and 4 pieces of waffles:


...which wouldn't be complete without self-mixed ice-cream (strawberry, vanilla, chocolate ice-cream mixed with oats and 2 shots of caramel and mint baileys):


Add in a glass of milk and voila! Breakfast:


Ok. That's it for updates for now. Got to work on some unfinished tabulations.

josh, signin off.
