Get together week

Fri 15th Dec 06
Today we had a little get together of all the TAP pple and the Singapore project pple... to try to get to know each other more by spending time together... chit chatting... and of cos.. eat... for free! haha..
it was at a small pub near our place... which had pool tables... table tennis table... tv... table soccer... a live band... and of cos... beer.... turn out was quite good... and with the free flow of drinks and finger food... that just makes it better... haha... well... nothing much to talk about for this kinda setting... cos there is nothing much u can do put talk and eat and drink....

A fellow colleague invited us to her place for a little get together... and the funny thing is... i don even know her... but since she emailed every TAP... i just turned up... haha... we each brought stuff to contribute to the food pile... and i brought my usual Baileys bundt cake....
it was a pretty nice apartment... though a little small... but it's enough for her and her little daughter... about 2-3 years old maybe? all the while she was entertained by her on baby talking and playing with her toys by her mum's side while she prepares the food....
the food was great... and i particularly like the dumplings in celery soup... and to think celery is one of my no-nos... but wat i gathered was... after u cook it till it all softens away... the smelly smell of celery disappears too... oh ya.. and did i mention she was from the philippines... so well maybe her dishes did have a touch of asian in it...
well.. overall... got a chance to talk to the ang mohs... they get to know a little more about sg... and i get to meet new pple whom i probably wouldn't really come across at work since they are all in carpet world.... so on the whole... it was a pretty good session....
