2's a Company, 3's a Crowd!

Since XP mentioned that he din have time to get me a gift cos he has been busi with our new house's reno, he decided to bring me out for dinner as a compensation. Or whatever that is! Best of all, he said that Little Arielle is my present! Alamak, at least at the moment, she is still a nusiance!

He thought of "depositing" Little Arielle at my mama's house but I din agree to it although I very much wanted to. Weekend is the only time that she can take a break and as much as possible, I try to free up those time for her. Is it really tiring to take care of a kid on a full day basis, especially when age is not on her side.

Anyway, since depositing her is not possible and we dun have a maid to look after her, the only solution is to bring her along lor!

XP suggested to eat at T2's Swensons. Hee hee, I was quite happy cos he kinda read my mind. I was also thinking of that leh! But I din wanna tell him!

Just as XP expected, the queue is very very long! He suggested to eat elsewhere cos we probably need to wait at least an hour?? I din want to so we decided to join the queue. Was in the queue at 10pm.

Since the queue is so long, decided to bring Little Arielle around first before she starts to wander off on her own. So I took her to the ice-cream counter and saw the nice deco that they have and took a pic!

We were there for less than 5 minutes and someone tapped on my shoulder. It was XP, following behind a waitress. Oh, I'm surprised that we got a table that fast!

After the waitress showed us to the table, it was pretty cramp and it's a table for 2! No space to place a baby chair at all. I then realised that it's a lovers' corner cos it's all couples sitting there. Nothing more than 2! So in the end, Little Arielle was placed on XP's lap and mine as we took turns. So I was just commenting that everyone came in a couple and Little Arielle is "extra" and the gal sitting in the next table just laughed off.

Hmm, they have got a Valentine's 4 course meal that costs $68+++. Wow, don't think we wanna spend so much on it leh. Though they just give an extra heart-shaped balloon and help us take a pic but we thought that it's not worth the money. So just decided to order the normal ala carte dishes.

Ordered 2 sides, 1 main course and 2 desserts! Luckily Little Arielle was till pretty obedient, we managed to kinda of eat in peace. And of course, the awaited moment is when the ice-cream was served! She was practically enjoying herself. Hmm, should we bring her along next Valentine?
