Cuppa-Kap Coffee Cafe

Cuppa-Kap Coffee Cafe, Jalan Song, Kuching.

Our 1st time here, we had ..
Mini Macarons - Rm3 each
Macaron ice-cream RM8.90
Budak nakal yang seronok makan ice-cream.
Apple soda -RM6.90
Mocha ice blended -RM9.90.  I requested for a less sugar, but this is just too bitter.
Not up to my expectation.

Better home #1 | Stationery

I must admit, I am not very good in cleaning the house.  We do have a helper that come to clean our home every fortnightly.  But within 1-2 days, it becomes all messy again.

So, I am taking a baby steps in organising and cleaning hoping to make a better home for us; and I am going to blog about it.

For this 1st episode, I am organising the kids stationery.  Most of the time when they said they cannot find their pencil or color pencil or pen or eraser.  We will just get a new one for them.  Coz looking for it in the house is so time
consuming.

For now I am organising the pen, color pencil, pencil and others into a separate compartment.

Pencil and color pencil

Pen and other stationery.

The rest I just dump it into a shoebox.

Dynasty Hotel, Miri

My room on the 8th floor of the hotel.
Good size room with great view, but I forgot to capture the view.. sigh..


And I had a yummylicious Kolok Mee Special (RM5.00) at the nearby kopitiam, behind Methodist Church, just a few steps away from the hotel.
Overall, I am happy with my 1st stay there.
