0208hrs..
Its tt time of the year again, even though its still slightly early, I made Gingerbread Men yesterday. This year I found a new Gingerbread Recipe, so it doesn't taste as bad as those I made last year.But the only cookie cutters I have are the Ampelmann ones which Kit got me from Deutschland.
They are German traffic light men. One is Stand, another is Walk.As you can see i ran out of ideas to decorate traffic light men, so i ended up drawing nonsensical shapes on them. Traffic light men don't even wear clothes to begin with.
Anyway, I miss Pho so much. Its just rice noodles soup with beef. But it is so light and yummy.I wish Singapore has more Vietnamese food. Thai food is just spicy and over-rated.
Saigon was rather fun. It was mostly sight-seeing, eating and walking alot. I am quite amazed that we are still alive, considering the crazy no-rules traffic. People drive where ever they want, in different directions. There are no Ampelmann in Vietnam, so jaywalking is probably considered legal.
The rules of crossing the roads there are, don't dash, don't step back, and keep walking.
It was fun. Not everyday you have motorbikes zooming pass you at a distance of 5cm (I am not exaggerating, I always got very worried they will run over my toes) and hearing your cab driver honk 20 times in a minute (I am not exaggerating this either). Noise and air pollution is pretty bad there.
I'll prob go back there again for the Pho, Kebabs, Super thick Vietnamese Coffee and Wagyu. Yum yum yum.
EEREEENN!! I WANT GINGERBREAD COOKIE MAN!!
