The day of renewed promises for the next 365 days - this year's was the usual no-frills celebrations. "It's a Hallmark holiday, not mine" I quote my mum. But still, it's a day to be thankful for the other 364 days in the year for her when we sometimes take them for granted ☺
We settled with Cafe mosaic (@ Carlton hotel) for the Mother's Day lunch (we don't do this every year) after many frantic days of last minute bookings for my family. Good spread, they gave free cupcakes and freebies for the mothers, so now we have a couple of 1-for-1 hi-tea @ the gravity bar ♥ (Any good reviews?) The cupcakes were pretty smooshed up by then because of the humid weather and our haphazard handling - aesthetically and tastebuds appeasing nonetheless.
Was quite fun catching up with life after exams (last week) and getting used to my nephew's new trademark smile that even got the hotel staff giggling.

Blessed afternoon spent @ Far East flora and sniffing out good plant deals with my mum and rushing back home for a dip in the (icy as usual) pool before heading out for a night of FRIENDS and relaxing in the east.
It's amazing how serene a flora can be, even on such a baked hot day, the fertilizer filled air and the occasional fly springing up on you.
God creations and His endowed gardening skills are an awe ☺
P.S. Still very tempted to move over to Tumblr but migrating all my old posts is certainly very painful
