JUST ANOTHER DAY

So excited my friend Heather has created her own blog.....finally!! Hooray!

We picked up our new wine rack last night and I cant wait to until we get to use it...that is, if we decide to take it out of the box instead of placing it nicely boxed up in the bomb shelter until we move back. Hmmmmm what to do? And yes, we, on the 36th floor, have a bomb shelter aka the storage room. Why have a bomb shelter on the 36th floor? Make sense to anyone? Typical Singapore for you.
In other news, I made homemade sweet and sour prawns(shrimp to the folks back home) and it was super good. Quite the little chef over here :)
I also spent like 4+ hours on Orchard road shopping yesterday and all I was able to bring home was a TimeOut Singapore mag (has events going on around Singapore and restaurant/shopping info) and a blank recipe book so I can write all my yummy finds in.
It has been raining quite a bit the past several mornings, which our allergies do not appreciate.

And, I found a mini triathlon I think Matt is considering entering. I would do it, but am just not a good swimmer, but I'm pretty sure he could....so maybe I'll just volunteer. (Slight confession**I just dont want to swim in THAT water by ECP...horrible, I know but it's not the clearest or prettiest). You all know how I am about the water. Go to the lake=LOVE it, but always stay on the boat and only dip in emergencies when you absolutely HAVE to.

I am really starting to like being a homemaker. It was kind of trying the first couple of months, but I have learned to embrace it.Myself and Margaret(who is back in the US) are probably the only 2 single, American girls in Singapore who:
1. Have no job
2. Have no kids
Because all the others have 1 or the other and believe me it is no fun going to the mall when the stroller gangs are there.
So with that said:
By gosh, I will be fit, fabulous and cook like Paula Dean if it kills me!
