I was so looking forward for the day and hoping darling will buy a small gift for me. [Cause he had not get me anything for Valentine day ( *_*o)]
I keep hoping until i'm about to fall asleep and shift my pillow... I shouted... who that idiot that throw a box of chocolate on my bed... arghh.

As I open the box is a gift, with a gift card
Haha... good wish... Love it.


Guess what is inside the box??? Is a box of SKII which I been wishing to get hold of it.


Darling specially buy this set for me as I keep mentioning it since last year but just can't pinch my heart to go ahead and made the purchase. I finally got it... having a mix feeling of happy and heart ache at the same time.

This set is really good start up kit for those that want to try or as a gift. So below is what included in the box.
A bottle Facial Treatment Essence 75ml, A bottle of facial treatment clear lotion and a facial treatment mask.

So today is time to have nice food... where I really missed it... Marche @ 313 Somerset. I love the environment and the food portion is really big enough to be share.


Once you enter Marche, you will feel like in farm stay, away from the hectic life. With the fresh market concept, it just made your appetite opens up and feel like trying everything.






Before you are been direct to the seat, everyone will have a guest card so that it enable us to purchase our food on the spot and best thing about this is everyone can go on dutch. Of cause today is my darling treat me... hehehe

Seat taken up.... Is reserved for me & darling

My all times favourite is the mushroom soup, where it is super thick and every scoop is full of blended mushroom.

Another not to be miss the the savoury crepe.... yummy... Usually I order the roasted chicken, but this time round, I go for the black forest ham. As usual, it is super delicious... the only disappointment for today is..... I waited for half an hour just to get one crepe... arghhhhh. Damn piss off, but what to do, I love their crepe so much. In it, they put lots of cheese and mix vegetable. Dipping it in the mushroom cream sauce just made it a perfect one.


Love vegetables??? They had a counter where you just order the size you want, and grab as many vegetable on the plate as possible for them to stir fry. It really taste juicy and fresh. Good for vege-lovers.

Well, nothing more to describe than bombarding with my pictures... haha.





Well, I should end of today with our lovely couple photo.

Click here for the printable templates
Below is the picture on idea what you can make.

Day 2 Honeymoon @ Yehliu

I'm suppose to blog about it back last year, but hmmm... well anyway, just want to continue it for now.
Okay, our Day 2 started off with a nice breakfast in the hotel. ( if you are wondering which hotel I'm staying, click here for my earlier blog.) Breakfast need to be well taken, as today we had a long journey to go.

While our gathering time is still early, once we complete our breeky, its time for photo shooting session.
Trying to advertise the water??

Rainy day... Hope the trip will still be fun

Couple in Black
If you are wondering is taiwan cold in November... I should say yes... quite it is rather wet and windy which make you freeze.
One thing good about my tour group is everyone is super duper punctual, we always set off on time. It took us about 1hour journey, before we came to our first destination, Yehliu Geopark (野柳)
Yehliu is a unique place because the rock layers near the seashore contain  limestone, which are subject to sea erosion, weathering and earth movements, thus making wild-looking sculptures, leaving us to imagine.
Hiding at the entrance to avoid the rain

Cover in raincoat due to rain and super windy

We really look like cartoon.
Despite having umbrella, we still need to get raincoat to protect us. Area inside is super windy, for those light weight people, you better tie yourself to friend otherwise will be blown off. What I heard from the people there, the day that we visit is not the worst, it can get even more windy. Wow, I really cant imagine it as rain + wind is making me hard to stand in the open.
A small view of it.

Gigantic waves coming
               
Rocky Mushroom heads
The Queen Head Rock
One of the famous rock formation is the Queen's Head Rock. However as over the years, due to sea and wind erosion, the neck area is getting thinner and soon will snap off.

As such, they had man made a smaller one to keep it. Does it look like one above??
Photo took with the Man made one
Beside the rock formation, things that attract me in the park are these cute like angel like doll.

Do you think it look like Little Twins Star ??

 Well, I'm amazed by this park. It is really full of education. In Taiwan, almost every high school students will come to this place for outdoor education. It is a place where you are able to learn alot on how all this mushroom rocks form, why is there swirl lines on the ground, etc.

I wish I can be a student there too, to improve my general knowledge.

Well, this place is really a good place to bring family to come view together... nice scenic view and kids able to get well educate too.

Okay, as tour had limited time, we shall stop here and move to the next stop call Chiu Fen ( Jiu Fen).
It is a place full of history and nice foodies.... shall blog again next round on it.

Got to sleep now. Nite Nite.

L'Oreal Paris Shopping Haul


I seriously had become a big fan of L'oreal Paris product. From Skin Care to cosmetics, mostly I'm using it.
Recently just spend a bomb of $$$ to buy more on it. I wanted to try the Youth Code Boosting Essence quite sometimes, and now I finally go for it. Oh ya, not forgetting with purchase of the Youth Code Boosting Essence, you are entity to buy one day cream at S$9.90.... hehe. So I definitely will not miss it where I purchase the youth code day cream which worth S$40+.

So this few days I had been using it, after which will put on the white perfect day/ night cream. Well, I really do find my skin get smoother and softer... fairer faster?? hmm, my result not that obvious but I see my hubby do improve as I put him on testing too.

I also bought the revital lift night repair cream. I believe i already reach the age that seriously need to maintain my complexion and repair before all the "crows leg" appear around my eyes.

When buying skin care product, one of the most important things I test is that I need to ensure it don't have the sticky feeling after apply. Luckily the product that L'oreal Paris product most meet what I want. In fact after apply, you could immediately feel it is soft and smooth.

So if you wonder what is the sequence for using so many products, here it goes:

Cleanse -> Toner -> Youth Code Boosting Essence -> Serum -> Moisturizer.


Well all Ladies out there, wish that all of us get prettier everyday.


Just a small show case on L'Oreal Paris items I had.... hehe
