Go Shopping in Singapore and Hong Kong
Now that I’m confirmed going to Singapore in December, I have a big list of baking stuff to go shopping for. Bakeware aren’t cheap here and it is hard to buy certain things for Asian baking recipes.
Now that I have four chiffon tins, I would need to buy a few cookie moulds to bring home. My boy is so happy that he can go shopping for new toys and he’s even learning how to search for his favourite toys online. He told me that the source sells kids games and he’s asking if he can have something for his birthday. I can’t believe kids are so technology driven these days… are they taking after their parents? I think so!
Actually, I’m more keen to shop in Hong Kong than Singapore. It’s post Christmas sale time and I hope to buy some boots and winter wear back here. The winter wear here is just not as nice as the ones in Hong Kong and Japan. You can jolly well forget about shopping for winter stuff in Singapore – it would be expensive and scarce. I have to be careful not to overbuy as I don’t want to end up with things I don’t need. I think it would be better to just focus on food and go shopping less if I don’t want to give in to those temptations!
Go Shopping for Convenience
Finally, after a long wait of five weeks, the cookie book I ordered had arrived. I like to go shopping for books online for the sheer savings but sometimes, I wish they could expedite the shipment for these books.
The Good Cookie by Tish Boyle was what I got and I hope to bake some of the goodies in the book this coming week. Since it’s friday today and we are going to a friend’s house tonight, I decided to bake a cake and after a long search, I had settled for a Japanese soft cheesecake. Friends ask me where I got all my recipes and I often point them to Big G. I mean, where do you go when you need to shop for engagement ring insurance, the internet, of course. It’s convenient, fast and easy. Even when it comes to finding a product, the internet saves you time on your searching process. In the past, people use it to gather information, and these days, people go shopping online at their convenience. Times have certainly changed.
Now that I’m going home in December, I won’t go shopping here in the next two months. After all, Asia is a cheaper and better place to shop for apparel and my favourite things!
Go Shopping in Singapore in December!
It’s the weekend and my fingers are itching for more baking again! I think I would have to go shopping for more free range eggs if I am going to bake some more chiffon cakes and it’s just something I love doing!
I feel extremely relaxed when it’s a friday and I feel so light and easy! Tomorrow we will be heading to the city for Brisbane festival and would stay for fireworks in the evening. I believe it would be a nice day and I can’t wait to have a nice hot chocolate by the river! I have to do some online shopping later for last minute father’s day gifts and I am looking a site selling wheels and tires. It’s hard to find the right gift for hubby but let’s hope my boy bought him a good one so I don’t need to get another for him!
More time to go shopping in December cos I’m going back to Singapore… can’t wait to eat and shop in Orchard road and do the things I love doing. Six weeks will be a long break and it’s been a long time since I spend so much time back home. I must discipline myself not to shop or buy too much but is this possible when there’s so much choices out there!
Go Shopping for Bakeware
Life in down under has been nice and I’m enjoying my time baking and experimenting with all kinds of recipes. It’s been fun. I love to go shopping in the kitchen stores and it’s hard to resist adding another piece of bakeware to my collection!
I had bought a few bakeware online and I find myself shopping for more things that I believe I would need in my baking frenzy. Just a moment ago, I stumbled upon a baking equipment online store and I just have to go shopping for another chiffon tin. I had three tins but somehow, I needed one that works well with my 5 eggs recipe. So I figure out that a 18 or 21 cm will be good to have!
Christmas is here in few months’ time and I would be shopping for some festive cards and little gifts for friends. Hubby has suggested ordering Christmas photo cards as they are more meaningful and there’s a personal touch in these cards. Well, this would mean more shopping for me and I think I can get used to choosing cards online every season!
Go Shopping for Baking Ingredients
If you tell me to go shopping in the past, I would be really excited and agree right away. But these days, I would prefer to go shopping from the comforts of my home!
My husband quite rather shocked to hear that I bought some baking ingredients online…. he thought I would only buy apparel and deals. Well, if I can get through the customs here, I would be buying more. The ones in my list would be Valrhona chocolate, durian puree, egg white powder and more!
And before I forget, I need to shop for online for garmin golf course maps for my hubby who is planning for a golf trip with some friends. He thinks I’m better in online searching and shopping so I would better deliver the material! After that, I’m going shopping again for more ingredients for my next baking frenzy!
