3rd last night in ‘Sunshine State’

Today has been easy..visited ‘Sunken Gardens’ in the morning, thai food for lunch, next to ‘Lou’s…….’ and shopping at International Mall. Freakish thing is…I came with 1 pc of luggage, I’m coming back with more than that. :P Of course, not everything is mine. I bought quite a bit of stuff for people too. :) Hee hee…

We had dinner at an amazingly fantastic place called ‘Parkshore’. It’s western, semi fine dining restaurant. Everything was perfect. Straight from the drinks to the dessert PLUS service(oh, service was exceptional! Our waitress, Janet, did a great job.) We had crabcakes, cocktail shrimps, wonderful bread for starters. I shared a Grilled Petit Filet Mignon with Lobster with Aunt Jesse. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. The steak is definitely on par with Angus house. Everthing else, Parkshore wins hands down.

Tomorrow I’m teaching 3 housewives how to bake. On the list, we have creme brulee, cupcakes & whatever else they wanna do. *shrugs* So..it’s gonna be lunch, a trip to Publix(the HUGE supermarket) then home to bake, bake, BAKE!!! :)

Thursday is gonna be more shopping. But I have other plans. BIG plans. Have already made the appt so Aunt Jesse is gonna drop me off there, the ladies will go shopping and come pick me up later on when I’m done. Bwahahahahahahaha!!!! I didn’t think I’d really end up going through with it. Ha!! A little apprehensive though….*yikes*

It’s time for me to get a new mobile before it really falls apart. Kinda lookin at the N82-looks pretty, sounds pretty, seems pretty. Even the price! Geez….:( Will go take a look & get a little touchy feely with the set before I decide. tsk tsk tsk…sigh…more money out the window. Danggit.

Hmmm…I’ve made a coupla 2008 resolutions. I really wanna try to make it work this year. Has anyone else made any yet??

Butt freeze!!

Days are gettin better-slightly. But the weather is COLD!!! Florida hasn’t been this cold since 1979!!! Just the other day, it was -1.11 deg Celsius!!! Now I understand what my cakes must feel like in the freezer! Man…..I’ve NEVER been this cold. Nice!!!

Went to Petsmart today, in the cloud-free, clear blue sky accompanied by freezing temperatures. Very nice, they had a super wide range of stuff. Needless to say, I bought quite a bit of things. Spent quite a bit of money….blah blah blah…and I bought a little something for Junior & Foxy too. To share though.. :) Sorry Frances, they only had 1 left.

Went to Moon under Water for dinner. They serve curry in different spicy levels-mild, medium, hot & beyond. I went for the hot & boy was it HOT!!!! Geeez!!!!! My heart was burning!!! But it was yummy. :) This restaurant has many pictures of Singapore in her past days. And heard that the owner is opening another restaurant called Tanglin. Ring any bells?? :) The owner must be a fan of Singapore!!

It really is lovely tonight…so many stars out tonight. Shining so brightly in the clear velvet sky. Beautiful.

Apart from that, I’m in a murderous mood. Want to poke someone’s eyes out. Angry at the situation but maybe slightly angrier at mum for always letting people step all over her head & most of all, doing things that other people feel she SHOULD do. Don’t get me wrong, I happen to love those people but sometimes…just sometimes…you gotta decide for yourself! Well, that’s the rash, impetuous me speaking. We all should know by now that this trait ain’t from my Mom. Definitely. According to her, that’s one trait that will increase the probability of finding my body in the trash or river floating somewhere. *shrug*
