Spa-cial Moments

On Sunday, I had to leave KH alone in the morning since I had went out to celebrate mass with SK and my mum. To my delight, KH managed to keep busy by reading a newly-procured graphic novel, Stardust. By the time I got home, it was alreday nearly noon, and we ourselves ready to go out to The Curve. We had our lunch at Paddington's Pancake House which was featured on QueerR's blog some time ago. I give the place a thumbs up. Very good savoury pancakes. Simple, yet satisfying. I ordered the Paddington Dollars-- bite-sized pancakes with mini sausages, ham, cherry tomatoes, lettuce and guacamole. An excellent combination of pancakes, meat and greens. A hearty and healthy meal in my opinion! Unfortunately, no photos. So unlike me. For some reason, during lunch, our conversation veered towards religion and due to some misunderstanding on my part, I kinda got VERY miffed at something KH said. (Note to self: Religion isn't quite the subject to broach when out on a date). Luckily, we ironed it our quickly enough, but it was kinda a sucky situation.

After lunch we wandered around a bit as our appointment was for 3:30pm. What appointment you may ask-- actually it was a spa appointment! KH was super sweet. Though KH already bought me a beautiful rose-quartz pendant with silver detailing (thanks for the help Ry!), KH added on a couple's spa package at Royale Spa, Royale Bintang Hotel. *muacks*. It was my first time and if I wasn't lethargic from Saturday, I would have been dancing circles around KH (penghargaan kepada SK dan Alex!). The JojoBali Harmony package was inclusive of a sea salt scrub (I felt like I was being prepped for the grill), herbal steam (after marinating, turn on the heat! And we added some heat of our own in there. :P), ear-candling (some kind of quackery) and aromatic full-body massage (so weird to be tenderized after cooking). My masseur was Floriah and my, she had really strong hands. Kinda grimaced through some parts. Something very salah I noticed about the whole experience-- we were given disposable uderwear to wear during the treatment and the masseurs kept referring to them as "panties"... ugh.

At the end of the 2 hours, I felt rejuvenated and extremely clean, but oily. Before joining SK, mei and Mel for dinner at La La Chong, Subang Old Airport, we stopped a moment at Bangsar Village II to take a look at the new Private Structure Boutique. Everything there is so cute and eye-catching, but kind of expensive. Heh. For dinner, we ordered salted egg yolk crabs (RM40/kg!), superior soup lala (thumbs up!), stir-fried paku pakis with belacan (thumbs up!), claypot beancurd and dried chilli bamboo clams. Everything was decently-priced, except the crab la. Was freaking tired after dinner as the effects of the soothing spa were beginning to wear off. We headed home to do some minor grocery shopping and we managed to squeeze in some "alone" time. We were definately deprived of each other and it was the best we could make of the situation. Hopefully, we can spend some more quality time in the future... thanks dear...
