Morning Walk Series [10]

When I was young, my Mum didn't like us to drink Ribena.  "Too much sugar!", she said.  Now, she boils this drink that tastes a lot like Ribena and it is all natural!  Just use the fruits from the Roselle plant.

Oh My Socks!

Socks, socks and more socks!

Yes, many Singapore apartments don't have much space for hanging laundry.  No, you shouldn't dry them at a public garden!  There were at least 20 pairs of socks drying on a bench at a nearby garden.  Hmmmm.... does this family have so many family members, or do they wash their socks all at one go?

Morning Walk Series [1]

I've been bringing Little One for daily morning walks for about a year.  Our place is slightly away from the train station and shopping centre, making it a rather serene area.  Even though I've been staying here for many years, it was only through these walks that I realised that there is so much to see in the rooftop garden!  Here are some pretty flowers to start off the "Morning Walk" series:

Desert Rose

Lovely Morning Walk

A lovely morning walk with the little one.  Cool breeze, what a contrast to the scorching heat yesterday.  Apparently we were not the only ones taking a walk...

Snail climbing...

Have never noticed there were so many snails in the rooftop garden... One of the little things that we overlook in our daily rush...
