I was listening to the radio a few days ago and the station was playing lots of 80’s songs. Sure brings back lots of cherished memories of my teenage years
Back in the 80’s, I was really crazy about these few things -

The colourful straw bag. I was very much in love with straw bags but couldn’t afford one. Even if I could, there was no no way I could find one in Ipoh
I used to drool over my cousin’s straw bags and I begged her to give me one but of course she did not.

Cherie Chung. She’s one of my favorite actresses and I wanted so much to copy her hairstyle. Wai Leng, if you are reading this, do you remember how much I wanted to ‘look’ like Cherie? hahahahaahaaha

Espadrilles. A must-have pair of shoes. You weren’t cool if you don’t have one
My favourite movies were …

Footloose

Girls Just Want To Have Fun
The Goonies, Dirty Dancing, Back To The Future, Indiana Jones, Terminator, GhostBusters and many more.
My bedroom wall used to be plastered with posters of them……

Boy George

Thompson Twins

Cyndi Lauper
The 80’s fashion – who can forget the big hair, the baggy clothes, acid wash denims, funky jewelries, off shoulder sweaters and tights eh?
I had fun doing this post
Were you a teenager in the 80’s? If yes, what were your favourites back then?

I love shopping for pretty skirts for Ashley as I love to see her wearing skirts. Actually she only started liking skirts late last year
What about your daughters? Do they love wearing skirts? If yes, then you ought to hop over to Sewing Monster and check out some flowy and pretty skirts. Each skirt is made with much care, attention to details and last but not least, lots of love.

Playfully pretty! This skirt has a cute pink ribbon as an accent.

Hurry over to Sewing Monster for skirts that are perfect for twirling and playing
Oh, besides skirts, you may also find a few surprises there.

100 Yen shop is opened near my home. It is only 1 minute walk away! *doing the happy dance* Its first day was on Sunday and I went there twice that day….hahhahahhaahaha. Ashley was super excited too because like her mama, she loves to browse every section. Did I buy anything? Well of course I did. Before you know it, I will be lugging bags and bags of stuff from this shop. I would probably develop muscles on my arm later on, as if I have taken the testosterone booster

Took this photo from afar…in case people think I’m crazy

Yes, I even took photos of some of the stuff inside. I took out the camera when no one was watching.

The food section. I took this photo for Sheoh Yan and Yvonne because they love Japanese food. So ladies, if you would like me to get anything, let me know eh?
Ok…..so you all know where I’ll be heading most of the evenings eh?

A few weeks before Ashley’s birthday, I was looking around for her birthday cake. We have tried novelty cakes and jelly cakes in the past so I wanted something different this year. While facebooking, I discovered Sincerely Yours by Suanne who specializes in homemade cheesecakes. Her cheesecakes do not contain any preservatives or artificial colouring. They are made with 100% love, 100% cream cheese and there are no sponge fillers in between
One bite of this and you think that you have died and gone to cheesecake heaven!
When I saw the Disney Character 4″ Mini Cakes, I knew I had to order a Disney Princess Cheesecake for Ashley this year. So, when I told Suanne that I would like to have a Disney Princess sugar paper (which must have Princess Aurora) for the Chocolate Cheesecake, she went out to look for the specific sugar paper for me. I am so glad that she found it. Ashley’s eye lit up the moment she saw her birthday cake. The chocolate cheesecake was so delicious and everyone in our family enjoyed it. If you are a true cheesecake lover, then you should check out Sincerely Yours.

When we were at IOI Boulevard recently,we dined at our favourite restaurant – Otak Otak Place. Besides serving very good food, we also like the ambiance of this restaurant. It is filled with lots of quirky and old school memorabilia such as green plastic soldiers, flasks, marbles and more. Have you been to Otak Otak Place before?

Their exercise book menu. Love it! Brings back memories of my school days.

Ashley playing Happy Family with por por. Yes, these cards also available for the patrons to play while waiting for the food. Below are what we ordered …

My mom had Mee Rebus Stulang

Otak-otak Meatball with Egg Kerabu. Yummylicious!

I ordered Roti Jala with curry chicken

Hubs had Mee Rebus with Fried Chicken and Egg

After dinner, we hopped over to Pacific Coffee Company for some coffee

Ashley playing with por por while daddy and mommy were seated at the sofa, having coffee and reading magazines.
We will be back to IOI Boulevard to try the other restaurants. I’m just waiting for The Loaf to open

I am so happy to read about the opening of Universal Studios in Resort World, Sentosa Island, Singapore. It’s a magical fun place with thrilling rides and incredible movie-based rides like Jaws, King Kong and more. This is where the magic of movies come to live. Many years ago, hubs and I visited the Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida and we had the best time of our lives. I can’t believe there is a Universal Studio so close to home. I don’t know when we are going but we definitely will! There are so many places I want to visit…..helpppppppppppp!
