EastCoastLife Works Hard, Plays Hard - WS

It was a busy Saturday filled with meetings, invitations to parties and a wedding dinner.

Mensa Singapore held its annual Xmas Tea on Saturday at NUSS Guild House (Suntec City). It was great to see old friends again and meet the new members.

A HP TouchSmart IQ816 PC was delivered to me on Friday evening. On loan from HP via Edelman, I could play with it for a month. Seeing my house could fit a 60" TV, HP sent me its largest 25.5" diagonal hi-def widescreen.

It is such an amazing gadget. I could blog, surf, play games, watch TV programmes or DVD, listen to music while browsing my uploaded photos....etc. Since Friday night, Jaymes has been busy downloading applications and playing with it.

It's my turn to play with it now........

    Wow ! now I am really surprised you know the Christmas logs (Bûche de Noël) too ?? Here in Europe it's the traditional cake on Christmas only in France and in Belgium. The other countries have other Christmas cakes, like Italy the "Panetone" and Germany the "Stollen"

    I suppose it's too late to ask you to save me a piece of ultra delicious chocolate log?

    I know you don't celebrate Christmas, but all the best seasonal greetings of your choice are making their way to you and your family.
