Why it was a good weekend

Spent the weekend at Ipoh - which wasn't planned! But here is the list of the little surprises we had that made it into a great one!

1. A nice McD lunch! It has been a long time since i've had McD!!! And the peach mango sundae was surprisingly good and refreshing.

2. A wonderful seafood dinner. We went to Unique Seafood restaurant - the good food was expected but we also managed to try out some new interesting dishes which all turned out to be pretty unique (pun not intended) and good!

3. tGiF's dad bought us some noodles for supper - simple fare from a roadside vendor which turned out to be really tasty!!!!

4. Having 2 breakfasts on Saturday morning! =)

5. Watching "I am number 4" - this was surprisingly much better than anticipated!!!

Teresa Palmer - part of the reason why the movie was so good!

6. Finding out that we got an early bird discount cuz the movie was before noon!

7. The popcorn at TGV was really good!

8. The refurbished cinema was impressive - much better than a lot of cinemas here in the Klang Valley

9. Having lunch at a nice local pub - feels a little like in the UK where people bring their kids to the pubs for a meal. the food there was good too!

10. Went around some furniture shops. There was one sales girl who was really helpful and nice.

11. A long and nice afternoon nap!!!!!

12. A delicious home-cooked meal by tGiF's mom

13. Discovering that Ipoh had good fried kway teow which could rival Penang's!!!!

14. Discovered good sate too - nice lean meat! In a big portion too!

15. Had a wine session at home.

16. Watched American Idol - it was surprisingly entertaining and the contestants were pretty impressive!

This was my fav performance of the nite:-

17. Went to a local bakery after church and discovered some really interesting swiss rolls - from durian to carrot to spinach to banana to jackfruit to coffee.... We were so spoilt for choice that we couldn't decide wat to buy!!!!

18. Went for lunch at a place which i previously din like cuz it was too dirty. Was pleasantly surprised that it was much much cleaner. And the food was good! =)

19. Another long afternoon nap!

20. Nice weather for most of the drive there and back home. Had a really good time chatting with tGiF.

21. Made it back on time to have dinner with me mom, me sis, me nephew and me niece. Sakea Sushi!
