Last month

By now, most people I know have their Covid-19 vaccination (may it be 1st or 2nd dose). My parents, sis and bro have their 1st doses, so it is pretty relieved to know that. Mine was done on Monday. We all had Sinovac vaccine, not that we requested for it since we can't. Will write about my vaccination experience in another post. 

My maternal grandma also had her vaccination. She had hers in UNIMAS together with my 4th aunt last month. 


A group photo of the elderlies in UNIMAS that day, my grandma being the oldest at 96 years old. My grandma (seated 2nd from left) and aunt (standing, 4th from left) were in news! 


End of last month, we received a wedding gift from a friend, who got hitched. They can't hold any wedding reception but still, they sent out their wedding gifts to families and close friends. 


I kept the box in the fridge as by the time we got it, it was late at night. So the next morning, I took out to check what was in the wedding box. 

2 delicious muffins with cream topping (one was distorted as you could see from photo). Jan took the red velvet muffin while I ate the butter muffin. Jay took some of the candies (in the little box). 

Congratulations to the newlyweds. Thanks for your wedding gift! 


One Tuesday evening, hubby bought home a pack of yummy smoked pork belly. I liked the smoked flavour, the fatty pork belly, so good. 

No dot - meat bao, with red dot - char siew bao


And other than the pork belly, hubby also bought few baos home as well. Char siew baos and meat baos (both with eggs in them). No, these baos were bought by a friend in 3rd Mile wet market, and he passed them to hubby at his office. Thank you, V for the baos.



My favourite was the char siew bao. I like bao with egg in there. We took them for supper that evening.

Congrats to the newly-weds, God bless, all the best. Very sad - like whatI said in my blogpost that day, cannot "ciak chiew" anymore.

Never seen egg in char siew pao - your paos look good!

Smoked pork belly and steamed buns are so tempting!
Congratulations to the newlyweds!

Most of the people around me have not received their vaccination jabs. Either they are all too young or the govt was too slow.

The wedding gifts is unique and nice.

Good to know that you and your family members have been vaccinated. I miss eating bao, those big pork ones. How nice to receive wedding gifts from the newlyweds.

Wow! May your grandma live long long! She sure is setting a good example for everyone in getting the vaccination. Good to see that the pandemic is not stopping lovers from getting married.

bravo to your grandma for taking the jab! many elderlies are afraid to jab at such old age coz fear of complications with medication that they took. Hope that she will stay safe and strong during this pandemic. I'm still waiting for my turn...my parents & sister have taken their jab as well as my relatives/aunts/uncles....Hopefully soon!

So nice to receive wedding gift box from the newly married couple. I will always end up eating the hard boiled eggs in the baos because hubby doesn't like hard boiled eggs. I haven't eaten char siew bao with egg in it. Something very different from here.
