Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday...sniff sniff Thursday came too soon
Was it only a month ago that Margo and I flew off to Hong Kong to visit Camille and Viboy for much needed r and r? How time flies when you're having fun... Lots of talk, lots of eating, shopping and of course, more talk. I even forgot I was sick! And then all of a sudden, along comes Camille to Singapore to replicate that same five day experience. She landed Sunday and left Thursday, and I managed to see her everyday. (Yes, CelesteF and Margo and maybe Scho got to see her more, but hey, this is not a competition!) Sunday, grand welcome Japanese Barbecue dinner at Kazu--yumyumyum...Monday the Samsons hosted, serving up a lovely mushroom soup with chorizo garnish, osso buco and not just one but two desserts, the mere memory of which makes my mouth water. (Lemon torte! Lemon torte!). Tuesday, coffee and Elvis cupcakes with Leanne, Margo and CelesteS at Toast. Wednesday, lunch at Project Brothers AND dinner at S. Maharani, plus coffee and dessert at Prego. And on her last day, just hours before Camille had to board the plane, we celebrated CelesteF's birthday with Peking Duck and dimsum at the Raffles Hotel. For LUNCH! On a WEEKDAY!
Oh my goodness. Way too much eating, but hey, it was fabulous fun as it always is.
Camille brings out the best in all of us, in the same easy way that she brings us all together. She is light and sweetness, good humour laced with a wise, tacit understanding. Why oh why did she have to move away? Come back soon, dearie. We have to do that again...and again...and again. And next time, bring Viboy! We need more people here who live on our planet. Love ya girl--muwah!
Now what am I going to do? I guess it's back to the diet and exercise journal...
