Fri 10 Oct: dinner with fellow Singaporeans

Home cooked food
Shawn and Irene were kind to invite TC and myself over to dinner at their apartment again. This time the dishes were more than just wanton noodles. Lots of work for the chef - a little more because she was trying to fry on a small flat pan.




Food was wonderful - the kind of quality and style that no Asian restaurant can mimic. I would have more rice, but was stopped by the mental image of Lisa with that disapproving frown. There was a fair bit of salad with Japanese sauce, which I took the responsibility of consuming it all. There was a lot of effort thrown in (thanks Irene!). One should not offend the chef with wastage!


Entertainment and distraction
I have to admit that with the Fire TV, accessing movies and series is such a painless joy. The video quality is excellent, and the show starts very quickly upon selection. Fire TV is just a means to the same end - it is possible to access the same video content on the PC via the convenient of a browser. Oh Prime, why are you such a fantastic deal?

I have been watching old Star Trek Next Generation episodes, and very recently stumbled upon Warehouse 13. Oh my. Personal productivity is down!
