....at Marcus' house on 09/12/07...
Plan 1: Christmassy design pedicure
- Heart almost dropped when I found out that the nail spa shop I wanted to do my nails at just outside Parkway Parade Shopping Centre had closed down. Lucky I was clever enough to walk around the neighbourhood. Haha..found another 2 nail spa shops.
- Did an express pedicure for $12, 2 nail arts (I had snowman on 1 toe and snow flakes on the other!) for $9 and full set of sparkles for $4. So overall was $25.
- I would say that the nail art designs were more limited than the one at Bishan, but the service was definately faster! I had to sit there for less than 45 mins!
Plan 2: Sausage rolled with streaky bacon and boiled in chicken stock (Supposed to be sausage rolled with streaky bacon, boiled in chicken stock and later baked with cheese..)
- I bought 2 cans of sausage without realising that I had chosen 2 different types of sausage - 1 cocktail sausage and the other normal sausage! Faint, I was cursing myself at the cashier when I saw the prices where different.
- Lesson learnt: make sure the bacon shreds were long enough and not just nicely the circumference of the sausage as the sausage would expand once it got cooked.
- The outcome was not that bad la...it would have been better if Marcus had allowed me to bake it at his house. In the end I only placed the cheese on top of the boiled sausage rolled with streaky bacon..
Plan 3: Mango pudding
- I read the label wrongly. Label read 2 cups OR 500ml of water. I thought it was 2 cups OF 500ml of water. In the end the pudding was wobbly! Brought it to freeze further at Marcus' house but it simply would not freeze!
- Well...I had not made any mango pudding for many months..that's why the mistake!
