At NUS, I see girls wearing real short shorts while guys are not showing off their legs.

So funny!

18yo 有本钱吗。

Anyways, guys should be showing off their biceps and not their hairy legs.

A batch of muffins just came out from my oven. Very disappointed they didn’t rise this time after I substituted milk with Greek Yougurt. The batter was supposed to yield 12 muffins but it only yielded 10 muffins. Too dry?


Looking forward to try my Blueberry Yougurt muffins and Mozzarella / Cheddar muffins.

I usually bake muffins and cookies only cos they are the easiest.

Muffins didn’t rise. Tasted like scones.
Probably try to bake a new batch with yougurt again in a few days time.

Did you add more liquid? Gk yogurt is dryer than milk. That may have reduced the volume. Not sure about the rising.

We finished our office move today! So glad it's done and went smoothly. The guys from Helping Hand were really great - very polite and considerate, asking us where we wanted to put things etc. So different from the movers I had in China (and I moved about 6 times there).


All the staff worked very hard this afternoon and we have mostly unpacked already although there are still some untidy bits that still need sorting out properly. We also need to get a few more little shelves and organisers. Now I have to go back to the old place and inventory the stuff we didn't move, and see what to do about them.

So tonight, I'm going to just sit and read, and drink my tea. That's my me time!

slmkhoo,

It’s so wonderful to hear yr office move has completed finally!

One big burden off your shoulders.

Enjoy your ME TIME!

Thanks! Not completely done yet, maybe 75% done? As always, in a new place, things don't fit that well (we moved stuff from the old office as this is just a 2-yr temp office while we look for new premises), so we will need to look for additional storage solutions, shelving, etc. One of my colleagues and I will have to go shopping next week. I think I'll go and do some preliminary looking around over the next few days. Although no-one is complaining in my hearing, I know some are not happy because it's more cramped, they don't like changes etc. I hope they will settle down and get used to the new place quickly.

And my main job today is to take inventory of what has been left in the old office to be disposed of before we hand it back, and then get people to help me clear stuff. Although we have till January, I want to get it done before Christmas at the latest; by early Dec would be better.

the plastic bag had a hole at the bottom…while taking rubbish out to throw, gravy leaked, making me clean 3x.

I try to save on plastic bag but in the end, had to do so much work.

The plastic bags from supermarkets are getting thinner.

If I find one with a small hole, I find another similar and use them as a single plastic bag for my rubbish

Bring your rubbish out in a container, then you will not have such a problem. Come back just wash the container. I do that even though my chute is just in my backyard. Don't fancy having to clean up all that waste water especially if we are dealing with fish and seafoods. :sick:

even the plastic bag from Cold Storage is getting thinner. it was the plastic bag from this supermarket which caused me to do so much work. those plastic bags which have been used to bag eggs are gone for sure, because the sharp corners of the trays will create tiny holes. so I use them for rubbish in the rooms. crushed paper, tissue paper won’t be wet.
