Peppa's Year

As it got closer to the Lunar New Year, more interesting things popped up in the morning market at OUG. Some new and innovative product releases for 2019. On top of the usual peach-shaped buns for the altar, I saw technicolour huat kueh this year, stacked up into mutant Christmas trees. And being the most popular foreign pig in China, Peppa also joins in the festivities. Spotted plushies of Peppa wearing traditional Chinese costumes, and also Peppa Pig CNY T-shirts.



In the afternoon, I went to get my hair cut, while mum spent some time with her buddies at the DAP Seputeh service center. My stylist put some white gooey stuff in my hair (nothing remotely related to "There's Something About Mary") that turned it temporarily ash grey. Kinda cool.



That night mum organized a Japanese dinner Jyuraku, SS15. She invited SK, LifeBook and Bless. The house salad was an excellent choice for a faux lou sang. SK did most of the ordering because she's a regular. Good food, good company.







LifeBook paid for cakes and tea at Sugar and I, a 100% milik bumiputera bakery. However, the the cashier looked pretty ang moh to me. Quite cute. They have an open kitchen concept where customers can see if the bakers are fucking on the kitchen counters. More of a takeout place really, but they do have the basics for you to sit a while. Anyway, I don't recommend the tiramisu, but the cream puff passes the test.
