birthday has come and gone and as one gets older, birthday gets less exciting because it is the day to day work that consumes most of the day. right??
naa......birthdays are always special no matter how old you are. not because you are adding an extra candle on the cake but because you are showered with wishes from around the world from your friends and loved ones. and this year, i started saying my 'thank yous' on friday although my birthday was on monday. when one started posting birthday message on the wall in facebook, you are bound to see many others who follow as well, regardless whether they know it is your birthday or not.
i have definitely lost count of the thank yous i had posted but i am not complaining.
the birthday cake theme for this year seems to be ice-cream cake. never had i eaten so much ice-cream for my birthday.
the above is the only non-ice-cream cake i had- marble cheese from secret recipe.
all the other three here- all ice-cream in different flavours.
ice-cream cake from baskin robbins! the first time i am eating their ice-cream cake. this was a very special one because the boy who bought this is actually studying in kl right now. i think he got his brother and mother to go all the way to the rest area in tapah highway to get this cake and then sent it to my house in the evening. how sweet eh.
this here is a 1kg chocolate ice-cream cake. this was a really filling meal because we shared this among the eight of us. burp!
and this here revealed my age to the whole world and it was in a flavour that i would not even buy for myself- corn. yeeeer!! i just don't really like this flavour but because it was bought specially for me, it would be rude not to eat at all. i had a small piece and i was thankful to the crushed peanuts at the side which made the consumption easier to bear.
as for gifts? it is not common to receive one nowadays so i was grateful that i still got two.
two cans of beer from someone who thought they would be perfect to cool down on a hot day. it is great to have beer stocked in the fridge.
this body shop kit is from ex-colleagues. we still make it a point to buy gift for each other. so this is one gift that will definitely come.
so turning old aint that bad again this year especially when the nephew was specially dressed in birthday gear to extend his greetings all the way from melbourne too.
there is still one dinner treat in ipoh come this tuesday. i am really looking forward to a meaty meal.
but in the meantime, the keeping fit and losing weight part still remain top priority while having fun and filling the tummy with good food.
