because he loves you and you love him??? guess i'm really a perfectionist and idealist love should be pure and unconditional if a person say 'i love my husband coz he dotes on me' and something happened that caused him to stop doting on you, does it mean you stop loving him??? so sometimes me and my bf play the 'why you love me' game, it gets kinda boring coz we will look at each other with the blank look on our face

i bought the colander that was advertised on friday's newspapers saw it and thought it looks not bad, price also acceptable so go and buy felt cheated coz of the price difference and also the scissors my mum saw the 3-for-$1.90 scissors and ask me to buy she thought all three big ones coz the advertisement is like that mah but actually it's one big and two small ones so same price as CK mah maybe next time you decide to change the look of your place can dig out for me still have no idea what colour i want leh the mosaic tiles now all look so nice and really drool-worthy loh if you go to great world city remember to look at the cosmo hair salon at B2, they got a mosaic-tiled stand near the entrance that's what gave me the idea my dining set is a marble-top table, chairs are with marble seats on top is a fan with light kit quite retro feel already loh but more towards chinese-retro, not the marilyn-monroe-retro

if anyone is interested in getting this, get it from the home-fix at ikea ikea friends card got 5% leh
-
wah your kitchen is really this is my dream kitchen man but due to constraint can't have it really really really envious you are so lucky to have such a beautiful home
-
i only know if the living, dining and bedrooms use the same tiles coz the doorway tiles must be one piece as far as possible so they have to lay from the doorway to ensure this
-
me also want to go refund some items the colander i bought at $12.90, just now saw at CK only $11.80 exactly the same loh, looks and feels the same think it'll be better if you ask for a reduction loh if everytime he come rectify one defect, you clean until siao wah, will really go mad from cleaning leh you mean your mosaic ah??? that's why can only afford the doorway loh love the look and safe coz my place dun really have theme then somemore my dining set is the old kopitiam style and study is all the rosewood furniture so should be okay bah... my current home also have one
-
it's the courts at the mega mall good to work slowly then will ensure that the tiles are laid properly mah other than laying the tile, the tiler also got to mix the sand/cement and slurry can't mix too much coz dry up cannot use liao
-
hehehe for me i will go for the dark dark one loh if want bright bright can always open the windows mah me unlikely to switch on air-con often
-
me dun have sliding windows coz used to casement liao but advice received from window contractors is that more tracks means the frame will look very thick, difficult to clean then if more panels mean more space is taken up by the frame, so all draw to one side means less open space right actually i find the windows quite nice leh and you dun have to worry about getting window films like us
-
true about the clothes not so easily spoil part me throw my mango hand-wash only jacket into the machine also save water also coz the water only need to cover half the drum, instead of 3/4 or even full to cover all the clothes electricity think same or slightly more coz of the long wash cycle mine takes about 1.5hr but acceptable to me
-
i know courts tampines got sell carpets think lush also has it carpet-only shops usually specialise in those persian-style carpets can be quite pricey but if you are looking for a good piece, there's one at centrepoint and think the huge one at former DFS still exist (it's opposite tanglin s.c. i think)

Everyone's Favourite Simple, Tasty Recipes :)
applefreak replied to Homeowner's topic in Wedding & Travel
hi karen77sg, maybe you want to consider using the chicken fat to fry the rice first before cooking them in the rice cooker another lazy persons way of cooking chicken rice ingredient chicken rice pandan leave ginger garlic method 1. wash and clean all ingredients 2. put all ingredients except chicken into rice cooker 3. put chicken on steaming plate of rice cooker 4. cook and open to stir the rice just before fully cooked during cooking, the oil of the chicken will drip into the rice so the rice will have the nice fragrant more lazy way of cooking everything same as above except chop up the chicken, mix everything together and cook not the typical hainanese style but nice still great for pple looking for easy to cook one-dish meal -
thanks for the info, this is the same guy who was recommended in an earlier thread on window film will check out about the ab filme at home fix coz my sis was complaining about the sunlight coming in to her room through the full-ht windows she was the one who wanted full-ht loh, now complain and complain only my goal in life is to do things i enjoy my job is what provides the means to do so everyday waking up time must psycho myself that if dun go work, no money to pay bill, go holiday, eat good food, buy things for my parents, buy ingredients to cook

LinDa at her t-blog today will myself here went out and spent money bought the eubig kitchen one and 4 rewirable plug - $292 after discount then the RAM mirror, utensil set, scissors and flex chopping board from ikea - around $50 just came back from my unit today happy and angry happy because met up with patrick to finalise the details of my renovation will start my renovatioin concurrent with hdb's defects coz i really cannot wait liao added a lot of items to my already long list, think my renovation will exceed $12k liao 1. craft stone on balcony wall - picked up the idea from taichizi's blog 2. mosaic tiles for my sink support 3. mosaic door arc for my kitchen entrance - coz kitchen suppose to be where the wealth leaves so doorway must be smaller than the main where wealth comes in 4. BIW for my room 5. pet doors for my sis's and my room 6. change all light switches 7. some other minor changes e.g. shift socket, change all piping etc will call besttech tomorrow to start trunking works first now the furious part three days ago my TO replied to my email and said that the contractor will go down on 28 Jun to change the two mis-matched tiles at the MBR bathroom kerb went down today and all that was done in TWO whole working days are just 1. bathroom sliding door removed and placed one side 2. the two mis-matched tiles are marked with an X seriously, does it take one WHOLE day to remove the door and another day to mark the tile? no wonder my rectifications took so long yes yes the number is the same so guess i'll be going for him too loh anyone want to join together for a MO, maybe can get discount if got at least another two confirm i'll go call him liao actually i love the flower tiles leh, that's about the thing i liked best of the original condition !! think my kitchen tiles are ceramic but unlikely to change liao coz i got other use for my tiny budget use a coin to knock the tile, if it sounds hollow die die must make him change it that's why we paid for them mah, the guarantee that things will be to our satisfaction, even if it's not perfect me will just leave it loh, dun want to do box up maybe painting it a light brown will be good? black like a little too strong? should be enough bah, me doing a 3.5ft full height cabinet that's about 10.5ft of bottom cabinet liao then plus the 6ft bottom cabinet and 4.5ft sink support all in more than 20ft liao, hopefully enough bah going for blue pearl granite countertop with natural woodgrain colour laminate with s/s hob

actually i love the wall tiles so no intention to replace them if i were to choose myself most prob will be something like this but the floor tiles is... not getting an ID, will be having the honour of letting patrick and ah keong do up my place by do up i mean just the necessary only maybe i'll ask ah keong for his advice and see how he recommend wood-marking laminates to match my blue pearl countertop most prob in a colour similar to rosewood or oak, dun like cherry, too red liao problem with installing window film is that you need to keep the windows closed for them to work kind of having of green house effect liao so hopefully the film will be able to lessen the heat coming through... think me three babies will have a wonderful time roaming aorudn my place thinking of putting pet doors on all bedroom doors so that they can really roam anywhere, doors closed or not
