Bonne Année

@ Galarie Lafayette, Paris @ Ngee Ann City, Singapore
Macaron Tower, Gerard Mulot
a tower of teddy bears, Takashimaya
For me, however, all these will take a little getting used to, especially the "inorganic" elements. What captivated me most was not the towering skyline
...although I'm happy that the city's landscape provided the backdrop for this shot that I took just several days ago, which I'm quite pleased with. What do you think?
Singapore Flyer viewed from Marina Sands Skypark (57th floor)
..my interest lies in the old world charm of the city
......places where I can enjoy a cup of local, strong, black coffee served old-style, i.e stained teacup-saucer with a small soup spoon, with slices of kaya (coconut jam) toast and soft-boiled eggs. This is such a divine combination and I urge you to try it if you're ever in this part of the world
Instead of croissants, baguettes and café créme, I've been having kaya toast and strong black coffee for breakfast the past couple weeks. Instead of Eiffel Tower, I wake up to this view in the morning (sans the snow and freezing temp)
Although we call America our home now, it's great to be able to come back to this part of the world after a decade. It's also been a transformational decade for us and 2010 has been exceptionally great for D and I. The new decade will bring many more good changes, for sure and I'm stepping into 2011 with great expectations.
Here's wishing You and Yours a year filled with increase, health and of course, sweetness in every aspect of your life. Happy New Year! Bonne année! 新年快乐! Selamat Tahun Baru!
