Retail Therapy
Inspired by the decor in P's new home, I went back to a much-neglected hobby today - furniture shop-hopping and bits-and-bobs a-hunting. Spent a couple of pleasant hours, brushing elbows with the tourists in the Chinatown shops. Lots of cheapie touristy stuff I liked, but resisted temptation several times. After a morning of browsing, I came away with some bits-and-bobs, and two prints of photos from Yip Cheong-Fun, Master Photographer, elected Honorary Outstanding Photographer of the Century by the Photographic Society of New York (the Century's Seascape Specialist) and who was conferred the Cultural Medallion by the Singapore Government in 1984 for his achievement and contribution to art and culture. If you look closely at the photo on the left, at the reflection in the water, you might see a dragon and some fish! Simply amazing!
Arms ladened with several plastic bags, this very satisfied customer then tucked into a delicious bowl of pork rib noodles. Mm-mmm! *slurp*
This is the prized purchase of the day! My new shoe cabinet, and at 40% off too!
A closer look. Butterflies signify signify luck and happiness, apparently. I could certainly do with lots of that! Bet we all could... :)
