Sunday, 25 Sept 2022 ~ Cass’ wish finally materialized today when her dad sent her to her first ice -skating class at the Blue Ice Snow Park skating rink @ Bukit Jalil. And paid for the lessons too. He told her that she could keep the money that she’s saved for years for the lessons!
I told Cass that she’ll have to use the savings to pay for her laptop when she goes to college in another four years ?
Cass told me that she will use part of the savings to buy her own ice skates as she doesn’t like those common ice skates at the skating rink. The skates chafed the skin of her feet even though she wore thick long socks the first time she skated at the skating rink two weeks ago. Today she wore double socks and this managed to prevent her feet from chaffing.
We’ll be back at the skating rink over the new few weeks for Cass’ lessons. And hubs is happy with this as he gets to indulge in all his favorite foods at his favorite restaurants ?
Cass with her coach.There was a Pokanime Planet Cosplay competition held at the Exhibition Centre, just next to the skating rink, thus there was a huge crowd today.We had a light brunch at Dragon-I before sending Cass to the skating rink. The food quality at Dragon-I has dropped considerably. Everything that we ate tasted rather insipid. I kept dipping my noodles and pau into the chili sauce and vinegar to get some flavors to my food. Only the smoked fish was good but it didn’t taste like smoked fish at all – it’s more like deep fried sweet and sour fish that you’ll find at ‘tai chow’ stalls.
After Cass’ ice-skating class, we had lunch at Grand Harbour Chinese restaurant. Hubs finally noshed to his heart’s content as he was very satisfied with the food. We couldn’t finish the fried rice and dim sum and had it doggy-bagged for Sherilyn. We dropped off the food for her in school as she had to go back on a Sunday for Library Week preparation.
Love the red bean tong sui with black sesame filled tong yuen.Yuet Kwong Hor (Moonlight hor fun) was silky smooth, had generous amount of pork slices, pork lard and full of ‘wok hei’. Hubs couldn’t get enough of it and is already planning to order this dish again this Sunday when Cass attends her second ice-skating class.
I’m a 50+ mum of three grown daughters, now back in my beautiful hometown of Ipoh and slowly rebuilding a quieter, gentler life. After years between Ipoh and KL, I’ve returned to my roots to spend time with my parents in their 80s, my soul-healing cat, and the simple things that matter most. I blog and vlog about family life, home cooking, Ipoh food finds, and everyday moments that make this season of life meaningful.
I do product reviews and accept sponsored posts on my blogs.
I hope you'll enjoy reading my blog as much as I enjoy sharing my day-to-day adventures and mostly boring ranting :P
Thanks for being here. 💛
