Oh! That's Where Taman Pertama Is!

I totally forgot to mention that I discovered Taman Pertama last week! Slap my forehead - oh! that's Taman Pertama, in my neighbourhood! And I passed by it probably a thousand times so far without 'seeing' the now familiar bright RED 100yen sign!

Anyway, today was free and easy for me, mother had no errands for me at all! I did a bit of exploring at Taman Pertama and discovered that there is a shortcut to Ukay Perdana, Ampang via Jalan Kuari! And there is a bit of a green lung in between Cheras and Ampang!

So was at 100yen outlet there after lunch ~ had a bowl of mee suah soup at this coffee shop in Taman Pertama.
Below: BTW, this was my sole purchase from 100Yen @ Taipan yesterday! Been wanting to get this for the longest time!

And I finished Suchen Christine Lim's 'A Bit Of Earth' today at Taman Pertama! Interesting enough a read on the history of the Cantonese and Hakkas miners in Perak and Penang. And today's snowy ice is Coffee & Chocolate Chips - not too sweet! Too bad, the gurl manning the shop totally forgot to use my especially purchased mug for the ice!
And guess who I met at the 100Yen shop? Melanie and Nigel!

Bamboo crochet hooks!

Week leading to 22nd May!

Picture I took of the Buddhist temple in Pudu on the way to Bukit Damansara on Wesak day ~ need to sort out some things at the showroom which were left undone on Saturday (cos I had to leave early for a facial my DH had scheduled and paid for me! An early birthday gift):

Some books to pamper myself with from BookExcess! But Saradha dropped by the showroom with her book earlier on:
Chocolates and Bird's Nest from DH and Miniature Perfumes from my gurls!
Most precious gift of all! CLICK2:

From front: Diyana, Yatie and Yatie's new beau! at the surprise! lunch which did not happen! Foiled by me having an early lunch!

And a BIG THANK YOU LADIES for all your Birthday Wishes to little old me!
