As Suanie Sees It

Remember my shameless beggary for Reese’s peanut butter cups? Well, a week after that, I got this in the mail:

A special delivery from MadHaiku, w00t! The note read, “Suanie, Don’t Get FAT! Best, mad”.

Me and all those who shared my Reese’s loves yous mad

Then yesterday I found this on my table:

From Niki, w00t! She wrote (in very nice handwriting):

Dear Suanie,

Came across some Reese’s today when I went grocery, I got you… hmm let me see… 80 of them!! Which means a 6400 kcal if you finish everything. But whateva la… it’s near Christmas already, nobody cares. Hahaha… Hope that the chocolates won’t melt when they reach you and remember to put the whole box into the fridge. Oh forgot to tell you that I unpacked them so it’s easier for me to pack in the small box. Don’t mind okay!

Last but not least all the best in everything and please entertain me with more of your blogs. Take care - Niki

p/s Wish you a Reese’s Christmas and a Reese’s New Year!

Thank you thank you Niki! I’ll try not to finish everything at one go

Epitaph: She died and went to Reese’s peanut butter cups heaven.

Was watching some documentary the other day, and saw this, and I couldn’t resist.

I love it when they LITERALLY translate stuff

+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+

Portobello topped with bacon and cheese surrounded by stuffed squid. Me likey. Only at William’s at Taman Mayang Jaya!

+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+

I didn’t have enough bags for the fat penguins, so I bought clear plastic wrappers, that blue flower thing (what is it called?) and string, then performed some handiwork magic, and now it’s good to go (to the press)!

I am so great I could choke and die.

A few years ago my sister went to the States. When she came back, she got me some Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups which I thought was the greatest thing, EVAR!

Then I found out that such a great thing like Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups are unfortunately not available in Malaysia.

THE TRAGEDYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh well, I got over it, I mean it’d been more than 6 or more years. Besides I don’t really crave for chocolate… much.

Then KY went and blogged about it, memories returned and I craved for the damn thing for a few days, and finally decided to take matters into my own hands.

I decided to make a trip to Singapore.

After all, it was the Raya holidays, I have one week off, so why not? Singapore has a large expat community, they are jolly good friends with the USA, surely they would stock the best-selling candy in the States in abundance! No-brainer, right?

Well… allow me to save you time, money and effort by telling you that you won’t have such luck at Singapore’s Marketplace (both Paragon and City Hall), Cold Storage (Takashimaya), Vivo Mart and Candy Empire (Vivo City).

I was about to give up in despair when Pinky nudged me to have a quick browse at The Cocoa Trees at Suntec City.

Browse browse browse… and lo and behold!!!

Sure, it’s only the miniatures, sure it’s S$6.30 per 85g pack… but when you find something that defines the purpose of life, you shouldn’t be picky at all.

I was of course, ecstatic

Even Rich, a non-chocolate lover, loved it

Well I am happy, for now. But my happiness will not last very long (when my limited supply runs out ) So if any of you would like to donate to keep this blog OWNER running, please consider sending me lots and lots of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, especially if you are in the States. For contact details, please e-mail me
