Kitten - Mr. Marmalade

Our latest kitten, Mr. Marmalade was found by the side of a major freeway (PIE) at the age of 3 weeks old. Skin and bones with no mother in sight, a good Sammaritan brought him to the SPCA, who promptly called me to see if I was ready for another kitten project.  I don't normally agree to take only one kitten. They are SO much more work than two or more as you have to be their everything and they become very very attached.  In fact as I am writing this now Mr. Marmalade is taking a nap at my feet and will sleep happily as long as he is touching me.  The minute I move he will wake up to follow me to wherever I am going next.  It may sound endearing but it gets old, fast!

But something about how the SPCA was asking, I knew I was meant to care for this kitten.









Smoke and Mirrors Birthday

To celebrate Kingsley's birthday this year I made arrangements to try out two new trendy spots in the city. Smoke and Mirrors is a rooftop bar perched on top of the Old Supreme Court Building with unblocked panoramic views of the Padang and Marina Bay.  That alone is reason enough to visit, but in addition the drinks are unique and delicious. 




Later we walked across the bridge to Boat Quay to have dinner at Kantanashi, an authentic casual Japanese Tapas restaurant that I had recently read great reviews about.  I reserved a table right for us along the river which although it was outside and without aircon, ended up being just perfect.  And that is how we had another memorable yet low key (per birthday boys request) birthday celebration together.
