We had lunch at Chen Fu Ji Noodle House coz we wanted to try the fried rice there. It is supposed to be one of the best fried rice in town. True to our expectations, it was really very nice. However, Kel was complaining that the prices are on the high side. He feels that the prices are kinda of high for simple zi char dishes. Well, you can't pleased everybody, especially one who is as fussy as Kel. :p
After lunch, we went grocery shopping at Carrefour. Kel & his mum went to shop for the portobello mushrooms while Daryl & I went to buy some biscuits for him. Carrefour had this counter whereby it sells all kinds of snacks by weight. This is a really good idea as we can try out the snacks 1st before we buy them. I saw some plain animal biscuits which I think is suitable for Daryl. Thus, I went to take a plastic bag so that I can put the biscuits inside. When I opened up the box containing the biscuits, greedy Daryl went to put his hand inside the box & took out 2 bscuits & proceed to eat them. I was so embrassed! The promoter saw it & came over to assist me. She was laughing when she saw this. Daryl managed to charm the promoter by smiling his cheeky smile at her. Charmed, she gave him a different kind of cracker to eat. We were talking about him when Daryl finished the crackers. Greedy Daryl pointed at the box containing the crackers indicating that he wants more. I quicky ended the conversation so that I can carried him away before he kicks up a fuss.
After grocery shopping, we went to the Carrefour toy fair outside Carrefour. When we were walking around, we encountered a promoter selling Sesame Street helium balloons. I didn't want to buy them coz I feel that they were very expensive. It's $7 for a small 1 & $15 for a big 1. However, we relented when we saw how much Daryl likes it. The promoter gave some ballons to Daryl so that he can hold them. He kept smiling & pointing at the ballons & saying "ball ball". Kel, being the doting father, decided to buy 1 for him. We shortlisted 2 balloons - an Elmo balloon & a Sesame Street birthday ballon & asked Daryl to choose. He choose the Sesame Street birthday balloon. Here is a pic of the chosen balloon:
After paying for the balloon, we decided to go home as Kel's mum & Daryl were tired already.
Daryl was so happy with the balloon that he kept playing with it even when we were home. Here are 2 pics of him playing with it with a big smile on his face.
Seeing the big smile on his face, we were very happy that we bought it for him. Kel even said that we can treat it as his belated birthday balloon as he didn't have it for his birthday. :)
