We love mocha frappuccino.

We haven't been buying Starbucks' mocha frappuccino for yonks! :P Instead, we have been loyal to McDonald's mocha frappe since it was first introduced some time last year. This has been a blessing in disguise since we have decided to stop contributing to the growth of the former company. Plus, McDonald's is much nicer, cheaper and easier to come by even at 4 in the morning. 

Feel free to visit here!
I'm not sure if this delicious treat has invaded Malaysia by now. But we did succeed at persuading hubs' two sisters during their visit in May this year. They just had to have it every day! :D

Got time?

I haven't been good at keeping up with my blog have I? Well, lots of things took place while I was gone. Daughter has finally enrolled into a public school, eid-ul-fitr, hubs completed phase 4 of our 'diy' home improvement project, enrolled daughter into a gymnastic class, and these...are just a few to name among others.

Of all things, what has actually triggered my mood to blog tonight is 'watch'. It's just that within the last month itself, I saw several bloggers expressed their interest in this not-so-quite-recent rave on white acrylic watches. Names like Chanel J12, Toy Watch and Fossil made their appearances. Thanks to Sandra Bullock on her performance in 'The blind side' . I watched the movie when it came out in the theater with dd. While a lot of other girls got hooked on her watch (and although the watch was very conspicous to me), I had my eyes fixed on her Gucci medium jockey hobo in sand, which is very sad because Gucci doesn't make that particular colour anymore. Else, it would have been mine, months ago! Hahah!

Back to the watch. What surfaces my interest in this watch? Blake Lively. She modelled a white Chanel watch in 'Vogue' early summer this year. I probably saw her picture somewhere else, but yes, it was from that moment that I started to have my eyes and heart set on white acrylic watch.


And so I did! I purchased a Michael Kors MK5079. I love it and hubs love it too! I first tried it at Neiman Marcus and I love how gorgeous it looks on me. The fact that it is sooo lightweight makes me love it even more! I have been proudly wearing it for nearly 3 months now, and hereby, I declare that this is the most expensive watch that I ever possessed.


And now... I'm thinking of getting another one in black. Maybe a bit smaller and.... cheaper. I don't normally spend much on watches anyway. You know what I have in mind? Fossil ES2436. What do you think?
