Recent events - March 6th 2019

We've been having internet issues as of late. Cuts in and out, with more times out than anything else. Really thankful Play Books doesn't need an internet connection. I've picked up an old favourite, The Secret Garden. It takes me back, has a nostalgic aspect to it, but I'm rediscovering it all over again and enjoying every bit of it.

My Korean is coming along, though it's temporarily on hold until we get a more stable connection, hopefully soon. I've been learning sentence structures, it's going great but I know what I'm lacking. More vocabulary! I will work on that.

We went out this past Sunday. We were heading to Pepper Lunch at Gmall for a late lunch, but got sidetracked by a raid. A Pokemon Go raid, there's a new legendary raid boss and we tried to take it down with 3 accounts. Almost made it, but not quite. 
Walking towards the raid, we passed an ice cream and snack place called Ice Giants. This place is amazing! You can order these massive ice cream treats. Literally massive! Perfect for sharing with friends and family. They also have smaller versions. The giant sized which is good for 1 person who loves ice cream, or 2 people who want to share. They've also got smaller size sundaes available, that's what Chichi took. Him being lactose intolerant, he didn't want to risk going bigger. He took the Oreo sundae and gave me his cherry. It comes with 2 scoops, 1 vanilla and 1 chocolate. 
I took the strawberry-mango giant. It's a scoop of really yummy strawberry ice cream laid atop fresh cubed mangoe, covered in a tasty sauce, which is placed on ice milk. It's to die for! I'm drooling just thinking about it. 
They have many different flavours to choose from. They had a durian giant, which I didn't order, but will go back to do so! Someone ordered it as we were digging into ours, and it smelled so good! I know what I'm taking next time!

There was also a bookstore right across the street, something else I want to check out. 

We've been eating out a bit more as of late and I can feel some of my lost weight creeping back. I think I'm going to start walking to these places, if only to keep off the extra pounds!

Ice Giants - my new favourite place!

We also ordered some chicken nuggets and chips, which was a case of our eyes being too big for our tummies, but we managed to down them anyways. 

We then made our way back to Gmall, forgetting how to make our way to the outside food court, we walked around the mall quite a bit. Finally we found our way, we were still both stuffed to the brim, but just wanted to look at the menus. Also, the view was really nice. More pictures to follow.

It's Mr. Bean!








Went out again for a smaller supper later that evening, I can see why I'm putting some weight back on. *le sigh*




We've eaten at least 2 meals out every day since Sunday, it's not the right path to be on. I think he's getting tired of cooking the same types of food. Pasta, burgers, pho, Tom yum soup, repeat. I need to get some creative cooking juices soon, otherwise we might fall back into the fast food rut again. 
Something to work on. 
Does anyone have any easy recipes to suggest? 
Feel free to comment below and give me some suggestions!
