rat-a-too-e!
Went to watch 'Ratatouille' yesterday and I enjoyed the movie! :D The pixar team did great again this time by bringing Remy to life. 'Boo' to those who've classify it as a bad movie. :P
The plot was simple, nothing much fancy for one's brain to dissect but it was Remy on the whole who've captured my attention. The cartoonist(s) was great at making Remy into a 'real' rat. The way his ears fold backwards when he's unsure or running, the way his ears stand when he's alert by something, the way he holds his cheese and munch slowly on it and his tiny ears' hair! It was great. I love it when they put so much effort into makeing one movie. The pixar team must have observed lots of rats before getting down to creating Remy.
Hehe..and the food Remy was creating...makes me drool and feel that canned soup are so..yuck now. Perhaps I should get my hands on making some next weekend. THIS recipe looks simple enough.
On the otherhand, I hope that this movie wont create a craze for some brainless parents to get rats or blue dwarf hammies for their kids as pets. PETS..need i say, are NOT toys for kids!Labels: food, movies, pets

sleep deprived..
right, i've finally gotten the chance to sit down and typed a proper post for my blog. :) been so busy and tired lately that it seems impossible to complete anything, much less go online and blog. been sleeping an average of 6 hours per day for the whole week and this is simply NOT enough! i'm still thinking of ways of squeezing in more sleeptime amid my busy life... the question is.. HOW?
and there's so much i want to blog about...my grandpa, my life, relevations and also some book-keeping... but all these got to wait, i'm simply in no mood today to blog about them. :P
anyway, i've finally tried the east coast hk cafe yesterday with esther! :) we tried its shanghai dumplings, baked rice and pineapple buns. the dumplings and baked rice are delicious! thinking about it now makes me drool. heh... the pineapple buns...i'm not sure. got to try the real autentic hk-prepared ones before i could comment. but both of us are definitely going back for MORE. that's because the food we ordered and eaten yesterday didnt even made up a quarter of the menu! there's still the claypot rice, claypot porridge, noodles and many desserts to try! woo~ (^_^)
went amk hub after tomb sweeping just now and had lunch at one the restaurants there. the restaurant is set in the scene of those period dramas village. definitely a interesting place to eat. bought donuts from another shop home to ate. i tried one of the donuts already. one with oreo cookie sprinkled on top. not bad. however, is there a need for lots of people to go ga-ga over them??
and i've been thinking over and over... to get a hamster or bunny as a pet. well, its still a thought for now. i guess i would have to do more research on bunnies first before i decide. also, i cant simple dump the bunny shld i decide to leave sg in a few years time. and i wonder if people do export pet bunnies overseas??Labels: animals, food, life, pets
