Date: 08 January 2011 Location: Heart of Tampines and Pasir Ris Photos (with permission): Lean Tibia
It was a simple fellowship activity set for the married couples of LOJ Singapore. But since I happen to live where it was held (and they probably needed another person to gorge on the yummy leche flan), I was invited anyway.
The guests-of-honor were the Pasir Risians, Senkangites, Tampiners and Bedosians (originally Bedokers, until its 'locals' protested).
January marks the beginning of Diet Season—or so I thought..
We were hoping to take a photo of the caldereta but for some reason, it disappeared into oblivion. I just remembered someone yelling “Wag na kayo umasa, patatas nalang ang natira!”
Guess what happened next?
The potatoes followed suit,
with not even a trace of the sauce left.
So with only the bee-hon left for ta-pao, we decided to play the classic pinoy game: Pinoy Henyo (in Singlish: Yes, No-Lah, Can!!). The kids outscored the adults.
Some of the basic questions were,
"Am I scared of it?"
"Is it found in school?"
"Do I hate it?"
"What is 'bawang' ?"
The 'aunties' then taught the fledglings another classic, Dr. Quack-Quack.
The kids had so much fun that everyone wanted to be Dr. Quack-Quack.
'Twas a lovely evening indeed.
(Tito Lean, this is a really good photo of the place.. gujab!)
