Blank Doll enjoyed himself.

Today has been utterly charming. It has been a long time since our family last spent a Sunday together having fun without the phone(s) ringing, tempers flaring and some long annoying to-do list at the back of our heads.


Morning was spent at the Four Seasons having brunch which is such a cheerfully familial thing to do. All the food you can eat. Fresh oysters, wonderful seafood salad, warm mussels in butter, peking duck, foie gras, grilled duck, truffled risotto, leg of lamb, salads, croissants with lavender honey, floating islands, souffles, cakes, pralines, sorbets...I could go on. Oh, then martinis and juices to wash it all down. Simply divine and definitely a convival way to spend a morning/afternoon together en famille.


This being a really unusual family day out, we went to the ACM! Haha, Mummy was really surprised that such a place existed in Singapore and we enjoyed ourselves thoroughly going through the various galleries with me as an impromptu tour guide. It was fun but tiring and Pa amused himself with the handicap door-opening buttong mechanism.


Thereafter, we decided to watch Shrek 3 at Plaza Singapura. Had tea and cake before watching the movie and saw Jo en route. Cheer up! Oh oh, the movie was hilarious. The "frantic cultural name-dropping" as the Time called it was very good as usual and I thought the involvement of all the princesses was inspired. Didn't like the ending though, just goes to show you can't really take the didactic out of a fairy tale.


Gosh, it's been a splendid day and now I can rest my tired feet at home. Tomorrow's going to be great too and Tuesday, oh gosh, and I can't wait for Thursday.


C'est tout.
