Food for thought: Books VS real life

In my psychology books, I may have learnt the process of how people face and accept pending death. It seems pretty logical and true but in real life, I realised its different. really different. there are too many external factors that affect how one and others face death. scary, confusing, illogical at times. trouble boils when people have different opinions.

what's worst in my point of view is the whole emotional roller coaster that all involved parties have to face until everything subsides.        

"Accept it" is what many can easily say but not do it. But time will heal, I know.

please let there be a peaceful beginning and ending =)


Xmas 2012

Christmas was slightly different this year... no elaborate celebrations, no gifts. just my usual excitement admiring beautiful Christmas trees and mini-meetups. haha

Surprisingly, I prefer it this way since it certainly wasn't a time of celebration for me. Anyway,

Merry Christmas to all my family & friends. Stay blessed, cherish your loved ones and be HAPPY & POSITIVE! muacks=)

Fattiveggi: Cafe Salivation

Cafe Salivation
*New address: 176 Race Course Road (its nearer to the MRT now. Exit F from Farrer Park MRT, turn right and you'll see the cheery pink signboard)
 
 
I'm back here for their pizzas and other 'fattilicious' food! oops~ 

Paneer pizza

Rosemary potato wedges

Lasagna with soya granules and spinach

Hawaiian pizza

Laska (its a mixture of tomyum and laksa flavour, you either like it or hate it)
 
their food are still good but unfortunately, price inflation ah!!!! =(
 

Fattiveggi: LIU HE Vegetarian Food

LIU HE Vegetarian Food
Beauty World Centre, #04-28, 144 Bukit Timah Road, Singapore 588177
 
This is a stall tucked at a corner of the food centre on level 4 of Beauty World Centre.
Simple & wholesome food!
mixed veg soup

Claypot Rice (BEST liao! *this is not available on the 1st & 15th of the lunar month) 

sweet & sour 'fish' (too sour) 

stir-fry vegetable
 
*Must try the Claypot rice but rmb to get a few khakis to share with because the portion is quite huge~ value for $ too!
 

Fattiveggi: Just Greens Vegetarian Food / Sugalight ice cream

Just Greens Vegetarian Food
49-51 Joo Chiat Place, Singapore 472223
 
 
This vege eatery is a 'heaven' of mock meat dishes. =/ BUT thankfully, most of their dishes are accompanied with a fair share of green veggies so they are generally quite ok.
 
 
Steamed 'chicken'

Fried enoki mushroom

Braised tofu (recommended)

kangkong (not recommended. it was way too salty)

assam 'fish' (my grandma loved this dish the most but too spicy for me though)

'Sharkfin's' soup (this was good)
 
The dishes are generally flavourful but tend to be on the saltish side. It was mind-baffling to me why the restaurant received a healthier choice certificate.  Anyway, I wouldn't mind giving them another chance since I have the restaurant's life-time privilege card. well, perhaps it's just an excuse for me to travel to joo chiat and get the SUGALIGHT ice-cream!!!!!
 
*****************************************************************************
Sugalight Ice-cream are special, healthier, and really yummy!
 
"Sugalight Ice Creams are sweetened not with ordinary cane sugar but with Xylitol, a premium natural sweetener found in corn, berries and mushrooms. Xylitol is lower in calories than sugar, prevents tooth decay and does not cause dangerous spikes in blood sugar levels."

Music: Christina Perri - A Thousand Years

Amazing music. Play this rainymood together with the song for another piece of art. *rmb to soften the volume though.
