first, refer to exhibit A, the pic of my husband with a tea cosy on his head. A tea cosy of something like a beanie- for your teapot, to keep it warm after being brewed. you fill the teapot and then "lup" the cover (like a condom) over the whole pot. Quite cool right? I find it so quaint to use a tea cosy - so ...English. As a joke, I placed it on Andy's big head and think he rather looks like the Pope.
Second thing I did to fit in? I carved my first pumpkin today, just an hour ago. Only a little one, but hey, still in the spirit of Halloween right? It actually smells quite nice with the tealight roasting it from the inside. I think I did quite a good job for a first-timer.
Just last week, I also baked wholemeal banana muffins. Yes, I baked. Me, baked. Got the receipe off a blogger's website, the blogger who lives the perfect life in Australia with her nice-looking family (Dan, you know who...). So i followed the receipe and improvised a little cos i did not sieve the flour as instructed cos i did not have one and also I did not have a fancy cake blender to mix the ingredients properly. But it did not turn out too bad, still edible, slightly tough cardboard texture cos I think of the wholemeal flour, not my skills!
Oh, I also sent my passport with my Singapore driving license to the DVLA dept here to exchange for a British one so that I can drive here. Thing is, to get a British one, I have to SURRENDER my S'pore one. give it up, never see it or own it again, wave goodbye to it. I mean, that's a little extreme just to be able to drive in UK i thought. But I guess since I am a here now, I just have to abide by their rules. how sad...
