i had the most fattening dinner on last thursday but who cares when you are having a whale of a time with people who mean to you.

and what better way to end the day knowing that you mean as much to that person:)

on a sidenote, the souffle i had at menotti at raffles city was really good stuff. im craving for it again:/ check out my look of xingfu-ness (:
