Levlie At 21

I'm not a big fan of Secret Recipe. I think the food is overrated but I have to agree on how good their cakes are. I'm not much of a desert person and I hate sponge cake but I'll eat cheese cake all day long and never get bored of it. I'm starting to move away from the main topic here pretty fast talking about food.

Yesterday was my sister's Syamimi's birthday. She turned 21 and now is legal to gamble - if gamling was legal here to begin with but that's besides the point. She is now a full blown adult and is now old enough to do whatever an adult can do. [more photos after the break]

First Day Sungkai and 17th Birthday

We spent the first day of breaking our fast at my parents' house. There were 8 of us yesterday and we took up most of the dining room. It wasn't just the first day of Ramadhan at home, we were also celebrating my brother's 17th birthday so we decided to have a big feast.

Before we got there, JuLeZz and I prepared food just for the occasion and when we got there, the kitchen was full of people cooking and food being prepared. We continued the preparing food there.

I haven't got much to write about now so I wish a good new year to my brother! Happy 17th birthday!

August Birthdays

Only two days ago, we celebrated my dad's 51st birthday at Villa Mauri and at some point, everyone got to talk about getting birthday gifts for each other. You see, August is a month of many birthdays for my two families - my two families being mine and JuLeZz's. The torrent of birthday celebrations is marked by my dad's birthday followed by my unable-to-keep-quiet-and-keep-his-comments-to-himself brother's birthday three days after, then my ever so lovely wife JuLeZz's, my didn't-get-to-buy-you-Millie's cookies-coz-you-don't-deserve-it sister's birthday as it continues to my two i'll-go-where-you-go sisters-in-law. And that's not even mentioning cousins, aunts and friends' birthdays.




As you can see, it's a full month and though it may seem a handful to celebrate, it's always fun to do so when it's your immediate family. Nothing like glorious free food. And to make things even better, Ramadhan begins tonight and celebrations will be with held with great feasts!

Return of the Lats

Someone's back for her summer holiday (which I almost forgot) but that's not even the best part! The best part is that we got to go and eat out! That was Monday and the whole afternoon I was bombarded with my mom's text asking me to pick a place for dinner to take out my sister (oh btw, it's my sister who just came back for her Summer Holiday).

Before that actually happened though, on the way there, at the circle of death (that's the huge roundabout in Gadong), I accidentally hit another car. The driver braked all of a sudden before entering the roundabout because he had second thoughts! It wasn't a bad accident but I ended up paying for everything. There goes my savings for this month. Bummer.

We ended up eating at Seafood Paradise in Kiulap. Didn't end up taking a lot of photos coz I spent most of the time eating.

Mom's 51st Birthday

Today's my mom's birthday and we celebrated it last night at iLotus. Food was good there as always but phone reception is bad - not that that has anything to do with the food. Anyway, thought I'd share the pictures here since I don't go to facebook anymore. Check out the slides.

Tweeps' Birthdays

Wishing my two cousins a Happy Birthday and an advance birthday wish for my brother, very advance. Hope you enjoyed the day!
