One of the Cutest Posters Against Shoplifting at Don Don Donki
I know that this Japanese chain store is a nightmare for the environment in terms of packaging, but it sure is colourful and enticing. Eye Candy to brighten up the grocery shopping experience.

Funny Signs in Singapore
Naughty people stuck their stickers on this poor vendor’s notice. Singaporeans can be very lazy indeed when it comes to things like this that’s not considered litter. Also made me wonder. Who is now accepting 5 cent coins. And our … Continue reading

Filming of Croissant Commercial in Chinatown?
The mine and the actress were brilliant and caught the eye of everyone in Chinatown at that time. My partner thought he saw a Delifrance logo, so is this a pastry commercial for Chinese New Year? We are very curious. … Continue reading

Central: Nostalgia at Goods of Desire
It’s a Hong Kong store but I was impressed by their nostalgia inducing uniquely Singapore items on sale. If not for the too steep price I might have gotten some of these cards.
Takashimaya Food Basement
I find the Food Basement at Takashimaya so interesting. Can’t compare to what there is in Japan but it’s still pretty amazing. There is always something new to see and this time we stumbled upon a Hokkaido food fair with … Continue reading

Golden Mile Complex: Little Thailand in Singapore
The last time B brought me to Golden Mile Complex, it seemed very run down. Seems a lot better now and I really enjoyed the exploring. Maybe my perspective has changed since I started blogging. I tend to view anything … Continue reading

Funan: Maid Cafe & Laptop Hospital
I’m usually bored stiff at places like Funan, so my interest was piqued when I passed by these two shops I hadn’t seen before. The Maid Cafe was empty when we were walking past it. It’s actually called Cawaii Koohii … Continue reading

I don’t think any legal loan service would be advertised like this. Would they?
The Long Journey to Agra Continues
Agra is in the northernmost part of the State known as Uttar Pradesh or UP as Indians call it. One of the first things I saw was a truck of cow dung. This is burnt and used as fuel by … Continue reading

The Colourful Car Ride from Delhi to UP (Uttar Pradesh)

Captivating Sights on the Streets of Delhi
You’ll never be bored looking out into the streets of Delhi. Families huddled onto a motorcycle or auto is a common sight. Loved seeing animals like the holy cow, in the middle of Delhi. MacDonalds, a theatre showing a movie … Continue reading
Trip to Delhi – Day 2 (Hamayun’s Tomb & the Streets of Delhi)
Hope you’re not too put off but let me confess that I am a totally spoilt traveller. Don’t like to walk too much and get tired easily, especially when the air quality is bad. Also due to the pollution I … Continue reading

Elephant Parade 2011 in Singapore
You can spot elephants all over town as part of the Elephant Parade, but I particularly liked the ones at Somerset 313. Especially this one which seems to be decorated with a single piece of string. It’s for a worthy … Continue reading

Helsinki: Market Hall
Another must see is the lovely indoor market. It’s by the harbour and just beside market square where the open air make-shift type market was. Everything in one convenient location. And the best part was, it was walking distance from … Continue reading

Being a tourist in my own country, at Marina Bay Sands

Marina Bay Sands: Cool Light Bulb Design at The Sloane Clinic
Thought it was a fashion store at first, but it turned out to be a clinic. I guess it makes sense, as they do plastic surgery here. I thought the light bulbs in the window was a very cool feature. … Continue reading

Red Dot Design Museum Shop and Other Pretty Features
Even if you don’t get to the museum, the museum shop itself is a feast for the eyes. Very tempting indeed. I loved this bucket bag from afar but I didn’t like the rough texture upon closer inspection. Still adored … Continue reading
Her Grandma was Miss Singapore in 1960
As I was researching about macarons, I stumbled upon gold. A beautiful post by Aliya, a Singapore girl in Perth who writes about her grandma winning the Miss Singapore crown in 1960. The title was Miss Singapore City 1960. The … Continue reading

Ecoffee: Starbucks Knock-Off in Geylang
After the spate of fake Apple and copy cat Ikea stores in Kunming China, I was intrigued to come upon an imitation Starbucks, in our very own straight-laced Singapore, while exploring the streets of Geylang. Some googling revealed that Ecoffee … Continue reading
