another one bites the dust .. for real....

one of my close friend's father passed away yesterday. he had a stroke and had heart problems previously.
may his soul rest in peace.
 
sigh.. a lot of my friends parents dying off one by one...
my mum passed away in the beginning of the year. sometimes i do miss her.
:-(

"C is for cookie, that's good enough for me!"

thewife made a batch of double choc chip cookies. Filled up 4 containers.1 container finished at her teambuilding event. another one finished during my staff meeting. she "changed" the recipe a bit from my original...(hehe, i always claim some credit for the recipe.. my sister would tell you its HER recipe though...) thewife put more arrowroot powder. its very good. very crunchy-licious..

another one bites the dust

Lost another headcount to a new startup… honeywell.. better pay, better title and travel included. Maybe I shud move as well. Took the guy out for a farewell lunch. Banana leaf Indian lunch nearby. Not too bad but quite pricey. ~$100 for 7 pax.. inflation?

pms-ing

One thing I learnt during these 5+ years is that when your spouse is pms-ing, don’t agitate her, don’t bug her, leave her alone, she can do no wrong. It avoids all unnecessary confrontations and outbursts. Be smart… well, sometimes I forget as well..
