Monday again huh. The weekend sure passed us by quick. And just like that, it’s the end of June!
Here’s what we did last week…
Ate some Cambodian noodles. That pork bone broth is so heavenly! So light and refreshing and not porky at all (I don’t know about you, but some pork broths can be too much for me).
Met up with some friends to go cycling in a neighbourhood park – masks included, although sometimes after they got hot, the kids took theirs off….making me wonder, how will they be able to keep it on for the whole day if school reopens??
It was Dragonboat Festival the other day – I had forgotten all about it, but my neighbour kindly gave us some dumplings. There is glutinous rice and pork inside.
The kids took a free creativity online class last week, and one of the things they did was painting. I kind of like this pineapple the 7yo did.
Currently…

Your post is like a mini-diary! I love the photos and the pineapple painting. Your 7-year-old is talented!

That’s a really good pineapple. I’ve never made a chiffon cake perhaps I should check out your recipe.

HOW is it the end of June? I have completely ceased to understand the passage of time. 😛
