Okay, I actually wrote something else before this but thanks to BlogPress and it eff-ing up on me all the time, I ter-deleted it. Too lazy to rewrite what it was. And this was suppose to be posted up last week but I don't know what's wrong with BlogPress so I'm now actually retyping this using my laptop.
.
Basically, something about me starting work based from home and of Renee starting daycare, which I will blog about in another entry cos its damn emo and this blog is suppose to be about happy clappy things.
.
And of course, also about all the things that happened since my last post on HFM.
.
First up, Renee turned TWO on August 22nd! My little baby is not so little anymore *sniffsniff*
.
.
The theme, as you can see on her birthday cake, was Elephants & Penguins, so we had a two-layered cake, the bottom layer being jungle themed for the elephants and the top layer snow themed for the penguins!
.
Everyone enjoyed the cake because it wasn't too sweet nor rich so yes, money well spent! Haha!
.
The cake was from www.heavenlyonearth.blogspot.com and you can get them to customize any kindda cake you want. Damn nice. Go check out this Burberry bag they made. Looked so real!
.
.
Anyways, we celebrated her birthday with friends and family one day before her actual day at KFC Subang Parade and it was HAVOC!!!
.
All the kids everywhere!!!
.
Sorry la but this was the first kids party I ever organised and it seriously almost made me swore NEVER to throw another one ever!
.
And the worse part was the stupid mascot.
.
Dah la Renee scared of it right. But the stupid chicken was just standing there during the cake cutting session and did not wanna move. I tried telling it to get out of the way so that we can have a proper family picture taken without it's beak in the way but either his costume was too thick or he pekak, he didn't lor. So Renee was crying throughout the cake cutting session.
.
And even then, I had to snatch the knife out of the damn mascot's hands/wings because it didn't wanna give it to me.
.
Hello! Your birthday or my daughter's birthday? Stupid chicken.
.
(ok...ok...think happy clappy thoughts.....happy clappy happy clappy....)
.
One week later, we celebrated SK's 32nd birthday!
.
.
I decided to bring him to Sunway Resort's Sun & Surf Cafe because I remember how much I loved it when I was there a few years back.
.
We used to go there for like every occasion we could think of. Grandpa's birthday. Family dinner. Parent's anniversary. Just for fun. So to me, it was a place that brings happy memories and laughter to me and I wanted to share that with SK as he has never been there before.
.
SIGH....
BIG disappointment.
.
.
The spread was only so-so.
The oysters weren't even fresh!
The place was dirty.
I don't even know what the hundreds of waiters and waitresses do there but they sure did not do what they were suppose to do lor.
And.....wait for it...
THEY WERE OUT OF BABY CHAIRS!!!
.
Excuse me but I called up a few days in advance, made reservations and informed you that I will be bringing a toddler with me and that I would need a baby chair.
.
So why was it when I arrived that not only did I have to wait for my table when your restaurant was PRACTICALLY EMPTY but was also told there were no more baby chairs for me???
.
FAIL BIG TIME!!!
.
.
Imagine when I tweeted about this, I wasn't surprised from the response I got back. All was about their own personal experience dining there and all NEGATIVE feedback!
.
You should just CLOSE SHOP.
.
And to think that you charge RM98++ per person. What a shitload waste of our time and money.
.
Sigh...sorry b, shall let you decide on the venue next year. Don't wanna disappoint you again.
.
Omg, this post is suppose to be a happy post, why am I so angry?
.
Anyways, our birthday present to Renee was this...
.
.
We brought her for Sesame Street Live presenting When Elmo Grows Up in Bukit Jalil Stadium and she absolutely loved it!!!
.
Even I enjoyed it!
Brought me back down memory lane...
.
.
"Sunny days, sweeping the clouds away,
On our way, to where the air is sweet!
Can you tell me how to get
How to get to Sesame Street"
.
.
Only thing I regretted was not buying front row tix.
.
Because judging from the way Renee reacted to the KFC mascot at her birthday party, we didn;t think it would be wise to get seats too near the stage.
.
But I would have enjoyed being up close and in their face =)
.
.
The whole show lasted about an hour plus and it was fantastic!
.
The lightings & sounds were perfect and the props....fabulous!!!
.
The three of us enjoyed it thoroughly!
.
.
The only thing that I was a bit upset about was that the cast did not come out for a meet and greet session.
.
It would have been nice to take some pictures with them.
.
And finally, we went up to Frasers again!
.
.
But this will come in it's own seperate post as well. Soon. I hope.
