Our Annual Spring Cleaning

We had our second annual Spring Cleaning event to help out some elderly at Tiong Bahru area last Sunday.

It is always heartwarming to see everyone putting aside their busy schedule and precious sleep on a weekend to do something more meaningful for the less unfortunate in the society.

The lady that hosted us was eighty-eight years old and I hope I can be as fit as her when I am that age!

It's admirable how clean she kept her house so we just helped to clear some unreachable areas and persuaded her to throw away the piles of plastic bags that she had hoarded for years. 

Though we can't do much, I hoped we can at least provide a cleaner place for the elderly this festive season and to bring some joy to her that Sunday afternoon.

Our room was really noisy it felt  like a room filled with noisy grandchildren with their grandma. Haha.

Headed to Ikyu @ Yong Siak Street in Tiong Bahru for Gen's Birthday lunch.

I think the name "Ikyu" meant take a break in Japanese but ironically, the service was so not up to standard we felt so invaded in the restaurant!

It was a pretty high end Japanese restaurant but the food was pretty disappointing.

We paid close to $300 but left the place feeling totally unsatisfied.

To be fair to them, they were really attentive but it made us very uncomfortable having someone clearing plate and responding to our conversations every other minute. 

Just a collage of some of the food we had because there is nothing much to rave about. 

Headed home for a nap and woke up to a really good news on FB.

Our home is almost ready!!!!

It still seems a little unbelievable and though it's way ahead our plan, it still makes me very excited!

A simple date at City Square after that cos we were doing some recce for our wedding gifts for our brothers and sisters. 

Had my usual BCM cos lunch was so unfulfilling! :(

And this HK egglet is so addictive!

You need to have it on the spot while it's still hot and crispy. 

Hohoho guilt- free snack! 

And we had a good time in the arcade playing car racing after that.

On a side note, I finally won! Woohoohoo~

Ok gonna end really abruptly cos I don't know what to say anymore. 

Happy Midweek folks!
