Now in IKEA - Argh! What to buy? All?

The traffic from Great Eastern Mall was relatively heavy for this time of the week. Took me close to an hour to finally leave the car park. We went straight to IKEA. Anita has a list of things to buy and we quickly went through the list. Some of them were only for browsing since we were not clear what fits into the house. The 2010 catalogue were also just out. Will come in handy the next time we head there. The main stuff we bought was the deck chairs for the children. They were surprisingly affordable. We also grab a few glass jars at half price and a floorlamp.

One thing about IKEA is, it was good and well to have a list. As soon as you get in the front door, your eyes starts to wander and you ended up looking at things you are not supposed to buy .....

The best potato salad in town - Express Sushi, Great Eastern Mall

The first stop was Great Eastern Mall. We got there early and did some groceries at Cold Storage downstairs. We then ventured up to the main lobby. Apparently for the last week, there were booths and stalls selling Halloween paraphernalia. Unfortunately Halloween was last night and most of the stalls have already packed up. I am sure the boys would've enjoyed coming here last week.

For lunch, we headed for Express Sushi. The food was excellent as usual, and the highlight for today is the potato salad and grilled cod. The grilled cod was especially nice. It was the first time we tried it. It was simple enough. Grilled with just some oil and sesame seeds, with a splash of soy sauce. The texture was just right and the potion was reasonably big.

IKEA was next .....

Planning to spend some quality time

We could have done the manager some service by reducing the amount of palpitations he is suffering - by the way, Sir Alex has a pacemaker implanted for fast heart rate. Instead we like to do it the old-school way, only securing the three points a couple of minutes from the death courtesy of Rooney. Unfortunately I did not catch a glimpse of the game since I did not wake up despite my alarm going off. Too tired I guess. I'm still waiting to catch up with some of the goals. Unfortunately the YouTube videos featuring the goals have been taken down.

As for today, I have to do a few chores, but with Anita instead of alone. We have decided to leave the kids at home with the mother-in-law and the maids. Planning to send some quality time, maybe catch a movie and lunch after things done. Wouldn't mind heading to IKEA as well to get some furniture. Looking forward to that.

Raining, and raining some more.

I will be babysitting the boys today as Anita will be taking a daytrip to Kuala Kangsar today. The kampong house in Sg Chempias is almost complete and her mother and her had to return to do some last minute planning, the colour of the interior, furnishings and the like.

Everything should be ready in time for Raya Haji, although we are still unsure where we are going to spend the time yet. I have already got my holidays booked. Anita was keen to go to Club Med but weather won't be nice at this time of the year and we have been to Penang in the last couple of months. Desaru is a touch too far. Another idea would be to head to our PD apartment, but that won't be grand. Hmm! Where should we go?
