I was visiting the Yong Siak Street branch and oh my - it is a great place to chill out, distress, detox on a lazy afternoon. You can take hang around the whole time and no one will chase u away or send u hints to move your butt lol.



A few white furry maltese dogs lazing in the bike baskets would have completed this photo lol.

I do like the clean lines and pine wood feel. Is a great place for your selfies and instagrams (hahaha).

We were so fortunately that day. There was a cheery little pop-up flower store that made the café so much more happening and pretty.

I'm so glad that Plain Vanilla practise sustainability. I just completed my Sustainable Practices module last week at TafTC school. By developing a sustainable practice, we can save mother earth by reducing the amount of natural resources used, reduce waste & be green!!!
 

Plain Vanilla practice sustainability by recycling. They encourage you to return used 6-cupcake or 12-cupcake box for reuse and recycling & u will get a FREE cupcake.

Sister Outing → Camwhore With Casio Exlim ZR1000 At Marmalade Toast

Camwhore With Zan At Marmalade Toast

Photo montage credited to Zan

Every week we try to meet up for gossip & unwinding ourselves. Everytime we hang out, we will set a theme and a challenge. We really love to DRESS-UP!!. Today's challenge is hair! This is big headache for me. I used to sport short hair and don't typically do anything special to my hair. But I still managed to do the SIMPLEST hairstyle - High Pony Tail!

it looks easy, but actually it took me half an hour to complete. I'm real noob when it comes to hair.

The mission of the day was also try out my new camera - the Casion ZR1000. 

Here's the first photo for us using the Casio ZR1000.

Zan: princess curl hair with polka dot hair band (so not her!! 做作到～～～拉长音） ＊＊做作 mean affection

The Casio ZR1000 really did a good job here. I liked the way the photos turned out. Damn nice. Zan's OOTD style was the Sweet Princess Style. My OOTD style was Japanese Kawaii.

We were pretty late meeting up. By the time we reached Duxton Hill, we realized that the cafe was going to close.

But we were still happy to be there and we promised to come earlier next time.

We continued cam whoring in the cab. ** hmm I surely miss the times we had in Bangkok

Next: Marmalade Toast, 02-11 Ngee Ann City 

We went next to Marmalade Toast. This tiny cafe hidden at a quiet corner was serving light food, pastries & dessert.

Another 做作的照片 while waiting for our food

We were kind of disappointed the interior design of the cafe - so we didnt expect much from the food.

But surprisingly, the lemon meringue sponge cake turned out very nicely with a soothing lemon taste & not too sour. There was soft sponge cake, moist. Overall, the taste & texture is just nice !)
We also order the monthy promotion → Chicken Quesadilles with lemonade (was ok except the foo wasn't warm enough)

** what is Quesadilles? It originally waS A Mexican dish which consists of tortillas filled with cheese & other ingredients such as lettuce & then folded into a half moon shape & served with salsa.

Thank you for reading. Love Jia Jia.
