Splendid Saturday

Working moms who say that they don't need 'me' time are actually quite wrong bcoz when you work, that is considered as your 'me' time bcoz you get to see your colleagues, have breakfast, lunch, tea breaks and sometimes go shopping during office hours. Which is why when you come home from work, all you want to do is spend all the time that you have with your children.
As for me, I 'work' 24 hours, 7 days a week so 'me' time is very important to keep me sane. My definition of 'me' time is to just be away from my children for a few hours at least once a week and i am very fortunate to have such an understanding husband to take care of them while i'm away.

So, earlier today i spent my 'me' time with my closest friend Dydy. We decided to have a pot luck breakfast. I cooked asam pedas on Friday night and brought it to her house this morning and she cooked fried rice. After breakfast we just talked and watched tv. It was good to talk to an adult (other than Mr A) bcoz i spend most of my time with a kid and a toddler. Later in the afternoon we went to have some froyo at Tutti Frutti Taman Tun.

The above picture of Plaza VADS is where i used to work for 9 years. Taman Tun will always be dear to my heart bcoz that is where i started working and it was also where i met Mr A. Even Luq's 1st day care was at Taman Tun. That's why i always feel a bit sentimental when i'm in Taman Tun.

Froyo with the Nawi sisters :)

Thanks a lot for your time my friend. Eventhough we practically did nothing today but it was the best 'me' time i ever had.

WTF?!!

Now don't get me wrong. Juz like the red velvet cake, i've also heard a lot about Tutti Frutti frozen yogurt (TF) and last Friday nite i got to experience my 1st TF at the TTDI outlet. So what's WTF? It's my version of Wow Tutti Frutti! Hahaha.

I was very lucky to bump into a friend who i consider a TF addict to guide me through my 1st experience. It's not like ordering an ordinary cup/cone of ice cream from BR or HD. It is self service and below are the steps for you to enjoy your TF:

1. Choose your cup (S-L) and they don't have cones
2. Go to the McD-like ice cream machines where you pump out your desired flavor/s
3. Go to the toppings area. There is a wide range of toppings from fresh fruits, choc chip, cornflakes, gummy bears, hersheys syrup, u name it they've got it
4. Pay at the counter.

This is where the catch is. So you get excited bcoz u can pump as many flavor as you want and put as many topping as you like BUT the heavier your cup, the more expensive it will be. The price is RM0.35/ 10grams if i'm not mistaken. Last Friday i chose 3 flavors: pomegranate, banana + strawberry, death by chocolate and i sprinkled a lil bit of choc chips, raisins, gummy bears n 2 choc wafers for Luq n Leia. How much do you think i paid for my TF (as above pic)? It cost me almost RM20!
It wasn't a shock to me bcoz my friend had told me about the charges earlier and since it was my 1st time, i told myself it's ok to splurge on frozen yogurt once a while.

I really loved the 3 flavors that i chose especially the pomegranate. I don't think i'll become a TF addict as it could really burn a hole in my wallet n i'm lucky bcoz they don't have an outlet near W*ngsa M*ju YET!
