Latest addiction

I think I'm addicted to the maple fruits and nuts granola from Starbucks. I've been buying a packet of that almost everyday.

The barista said its good for stomach digestion, hers took effect in half hour. I don't think I've experienced the same but I just can't help eating the crunchy granola.

My Favorite Ovaltine Biscuit

I first discovered this in BKK and I have been addicted to it ever since. I remember that I would buy boxes of them back whenever I go to Bangkok or get Guat to help me buy back whenever she comes back to Singapore. Until I found that supermarket in Singapore has started selling them.

Recently I found them in Candy Empire as well. Naturally I bought a pack to try especially when I saw that this was made in Switzerland.

I made the right choice! This one from Candy Empire is soooo different front those made in Thailand. It's less sweet and more creamy. Super yummy!!!!

Desaru - not as bad as I thought

Went for site inspection to Desaru yesterday. I've heard so many comments from people who been there that's its very rundown. Perhaps it's be because of these negative feedback that I went there with very low expectation. And I was pleasantly surprised, it's not as bad as I imagined.

The first resort - Lotus was better than Pasir Ris chalet although I didn't like their buildings where the rooms are, they look a bit like our HDB flats. Beach is not dirty but rather comparable to our East Coast beach. The rooms were huge, all come with small kitchenette and living room. There seems to be much more activities for kids especially in Lotus.

The second resort - Pulai is modern and look more classy. I would have chosen to stay here if not for the fact that there's not much facilities available in Pulai.

Looks like our Family Day is likely to be at Lotus instead. Not my first choice but I have to think for the group and not myself.
