Wait, Did We Just Move To Singapore?

Since I'm a bit tired, I thought I'd rely on pictures do the talking. Among other things, we bought cell phones (iPhone for David of course, and a Blackberry for me) and finally saw Millie for the first time in two weeks. No pictures allowed in the Quarantine Station, but she's doing fairly well, other than wanting to get the heck out of Dodge, of course. Now the countdown is 14 days until we can spring her out of there.

Here's a pic from the hotel restraunt, they have a huge buffet and tropical scenery to boot:


We hit one of the malls to buy our phones, and in an effort to find a snack, I saw this. Pizza in a Cone! How are these not at the State Fair????


After a full day of trying to sleep in, shopping for phones and visiting Millie, we hit Newton Circus, which is a hawker center (read: cheap local food) by our hotel. They're already setting up for Chinese New Year with the red lanterns.



But what's this? Carrot Cake! Just like mom makes! At the same vendor as Oyster Omlettes, but it can't be that different, can it?



Or can it? Granted, I really didn't expect cake, per say, but there weren't any carrots at all! Just eggs, prawn, rice flour chunks, and some green onions. It wasn't bad though, I ate the whole thing.

Next time it's the Cereal Prawn, to see if cereal has anything to do with the dish. Ta from the island, I'm off to find the nearest Starbucks and a wireless connection, I'm sick of the hotel room already...
