No Cake, No Kids
“Many, many years ago, … I had my bottom slapped by a man (or woman?) on this day.”
How many people don’t get this phrase? It’s my Birthday la! So sad no one wish me *sob, sob*. (The one in FB not counted ok *sticking out tongue*)
Anyway, here are some pictures I took that night. My Sister think I should go out patoh but after 12 years of marriage, I forgot how to patoh. So sad isn’t it. And I keep on rushing my food so that I can go home earlier to be with the kiddos. It’s the motherhood instinct. Can’t help it. Earlier of the day when I had a conversation on MSN with Eldest Princess, she ended the line with, “See you at midnight.” Wah, so paiseh only 😳
This is my second time celebrating my birthday in The Lobsterman, SS2 PeeJay. Since no kids around, we don’t even bother to get a cake. Can you imagine two old couple singing in public. Dead embarassing, ok? Plus with Hubby’s out-of-tune singing, don’t know where to hide my face!
Since I am going patohing right after work, I have to lug my dSLR to the office with me. This time I thought maybe I should leave home my Tamron AF 28-75mm f2.8 (longer and heavier) and use my prime lens (shorter and lighter) instead. Almost 6 months never touch my old ‘baby’ ade. And you know what? I’ve totally forgotten that my prime lens had this constant ‘error 99’ appearing. And the whole night, either I am too near to my food (cos the beeper kept on asking me to back off!) or the kanasai error 99 kept on flashing until Hubby also look at me one kind! GRRRR!!!! I still prefer zoom lens. And because of the kanasai error 99, my mood was so foul I forgot to change my WB and the yellow downlight doesn’t help at all. Hence why all my pictures looks like having jaundice! Sigh… how I wish all restaurant use white bulb like those home decor lighting.
We ordered cheese baked lobster and porridge lobster. The porridge is meant for the kids even though they are left over (on purpose!). See, even when they are not around, our mind kept on flashing back to them. Poor kids must have so much fun with their Wu Yi eating pizza at home under Mummy’s bill *sticking out tongue at Wu Yi* (Update: They changed their mind and went for Kim Gary. Still under Mummy’s bill!)
Hubby introduce new food to me.
Oyster + Vodka + Tomato puree = Shooters!
One was supposed to bottoms up. Imagine the oyster ran down your throat like a live gold fish. I hope Hubby did not trick me on this.
Every diners will get a complimentary polaroid.
This is our 2nd take upon request! The first shot was so badly over exposed. Come on, ugly photo take again another shot ma. Don’t make us looks like albino. That type of photo also can give people meh.
Itu je makan-makan. One year older and one year wiser now.

Happy belated birthday! 🙂 Somehow, I’ve always preferred prime to zoom lens. Haha. I guess to each their own, eh? Btw, you can fix the WB kat lightroomlah. I hate taking indoor shots too because the WB always go wonky!
