Saturday was always going to be a good. For starters, I woke up and ate Goober Grape squished between two slices of soft white bread for breakfast. What’s Goober Grape you ask? Well, click on the link you lazy punk ass. Or wait. Because I am planning on a whole video post, yes a video … Read More →
It’s summer in London! Wait, did I say that out loud? Sheeesh. I really don’t want to jinx it. Summer in London truly is a phenomenon. While it’s easy to say that Sydney weather is always fantabulous (and I *really* cannot wait to go back to Oz for my dad’s 60th in December) the “alwaysness” … Read More →
Chinese fine dining, hey? We at thecattylife are not unfamiliar with this topic. We’ve been to Kai Mayfair and well, yes, we’ve been to Kai Mayfair. We are not unfamiliar with the topic but we are still much confused. Although we were bedazzled by Kai Mayfair’s superb service and quality food, we are still concerned … Read More →
Awana. A-don’t-really-wana blog about Awana. Mainly because I don’t usually like blogging about negative experiences and well, last time I blogged about bad service, the place closed down! Granted, it wasn’t because of me that they closed down – it was because of the bad service, clearly! Anyway, in my don’t-want-to-blog-about-Awana-ness, I’ll summarise my experience … Read More →
My friendships are the foundation of my life. Having come from an enormous family ~ well, my immediate family is small (and I cherish them so!) but coming from a large extended family where I have over a hundred first cousins, for me, blood is not always thicker than water. I moved out of home … Read More →
How much do you spend on an average dinner at home? This is an interesting question because the general idea is that eating in is cheaper. For the most part I agree, it is cheaper, but that’s not always the case. Panu and I worked out that on average we spend about £12-£14 per meal … Read More →
There is no doubting it, blue is the new black. If you haven’t seen Avatar, well firstly, where have you been?! And secondly, and don’t lie now, but how many of us would trade in our pasty skins for the luminescent glow of the blue Navi’an skin tone, and with that a connection with our … Read More →
Cold udon with fried tofu and spring onions ~ one of the many styles of udon at brand new haunt Koya, on Frith Street in Soho. Freshly made on the premises and utterly delicious. Just what the doctor ordered. Koya 49 Frith Street Soho, W1D 0207 434 4463
It was 27 degrees today. And in what could be the most inappropriate choice of food ever, Su-Lin and I met up for lunch at Soho’s new Korean joint, Bibimbap. Who the hell eats a hot dolsot bibimbap on such a warm day? Oh wait, we do. Well, it turned out to be fun anyway. … Read More →
So last week, I received an email from my web host and they’re asking me for money to renew my domain subscription. I was like hang on a minute what? I paid you already, for the whole year! Don’t be ripping me off! And then I realised that holy mother of God – thecattylife has … Read More →
So it’s Bank Holiday weekend and Panu and I are in London. I know, abysmal effort on our part to get away seeing as we’d just come back from Hong Kong and that virtual cheque book is still hurting just a little bit. I wanted to do something though, anything so as to not waste … Read More →
