      Thk u for yr kind thots. Had been very busy lately. Do keep in good cheer & praying for yr Dad’s fully recovery. 🙏🏻
      Thank you. Don't overload yourself and make sure you have enough rest. I am happy this weekend as went for a meetup dinner to meet lot of new friends on last Friday night, went for a buffet at United Square with DH last night and just finished a brunch with friends now. Hope father can be discharged in this week.

            I really dont know how to deal with the rising costs of living.
            There's not a lot we can do about the rising prices. On the individual level, I am now conscious of what are the more expensive items that I buy, and will buy them a bit less often (every 2 weeks intead of weekly, say). If need be, I will switch to cheaper alternatives. I don't think we will get to the point where we really have to just eat less!

              Some things will costs more when we break it into smaller batches. I just bought a pkt of 1kg almond slices at $15.50 for my Swedish Cake. Noticed if I buy the 250g pkt, it costs $5.10 which works out to almost 25% & the hassle of going frequently to shop. Gotta to weigh all costs incl time & travel, unless it’s perishables like veggies that can’t keep.

                It is common that prices are cheaper if we buy in bulk or bigger packets.
                For rice, I usually buy in packs of 10kg

                    I reward myself with grocery shopping 🙂
                    The prob after shopping is I realised I didnt bring my \"bull\" along to carry the goodies home.

                        I buy 10kg too & fill my rice bin. Only time I bought several 5kg rice was when Sheng Siong had offers for $13/bag of Song He.
