Semester Break: Home-Cooking

It's extremely cold and windy today, I almost got myself blown away by the strong wind while walking on the street with my boi. I suppose that sounds exaggerated to you, but trust me the wind speed was around 48 km/h in this afternoon, even until now...

We had our lunch here at Royal Asian before going for groceries shopping at Clifford Gardens. I planned to get a fresh whole fish from Supa IGA, so that I could prepare a decent dinner for my boi since he's not working tonight.

As soon as we get there, I decided to change the dinner menu as today's fishes weren't fresh enough. We bought chicken thighs and some other ingredients. The price of the ginger is freaking $15 per kilo today!!! Luckily, I just need a small little piece of it. *Phew*

A medium sized Dairy Farmers Whole Milk.

When we were buying Vitasoy Chocolate Soymilk and High-Fibre Soymilk,
I saw this Devondale Full Cream Milk which comes in such adorable palm-size boxes.

My boi helped me apply antibiotic eye ointment (Chloramphenicol) to my left eye as prescripted by the doctor. I took an hour nap before I woke up to prepare tonight's dinner. And of course, I wasn't sleeping on this massage chair, you silly goose xD

Highfields: Pioneer Village

We weren't alone that day. The white puffy clouds kept us company along the journey.

Highfields Pioneer Village (located at Wirraglen Road) has a large range of vintage cars, trucks and tractors. In addition, the historical village offers a fine collection of antique radios, electrical appliances, and many more.

Highfields Pioneer Village, Museum and Park Inc is a voluntary community based non-profit organization run by volunteers.

It opens daily from 10 am to 4 pm. But, as soon as we reached the destination, it was already a quarter to four. The ticket counter was closed and the ticket seller has gone too.

So, the least thing we could do was to take a look at the surroundings.

A very old horse carriage. What are these silver tanks anyway?

We also took some photos before we leave the place.

An antique tractor at the main entrance, which makes it easier for you to spot the village.
