Last weekend's unplanned plans.

Over the last weekend, I found myself a head turner.

Yep, it's that tiny plant. Since I no longer have my bunnies, why not walk my new babies? *grin* But no, that wasn't the main reason. Haha. I was bringing that lil' one over to Ms Cheng's.
I don't think I've mentioned it in the previous posts, but I sortta used too much sweet basil seeds. Heh.. It was the start of my lil' garden, my first herb! How could I have foreseen the power of those little black dots?! Not that I'm not happy to see so many basil babies sprout, it's the lack of space that bothered me. Just where can I plant them? In pots/ containers. Then where do I put them? .. meh~
Anyhoos, Ms Cheng was happy to adopt every single one of them 25++ basil babies. So the problem evolved into a "where to put Ms Cheng's lil garden & how". Which was what Sunday was for.

After Saturday's planned 30min swing-by turned into a 10min-on-garden-planning-and-rest-of-the-night-on-everything-else, we planned for a Sunday lunch with a trip to DAISO at Tampines 1. But that too, went off the map. (*・_・)ノ⌒*
We went for Popeye's 5 piece chicken deal for lunch, to dinner at MOF. In between, we went from Starbucks to DAISO to Cold Storage to Home Fix and after a short call to Sinflora, we were running for bus 69. And guess what? We spent less than 15 minutes there. Yep. We went all the way there just to get a white, rectangular (side hanging?) pot holder (wire basket thingy) that cost $14. Uh huh. Then it was back to DAISO. This time, we really took our time in there. We didn't checkout cause we were done, oh no.. We got hungry and really thirsty (with all the talking we did & have yet to do, I wonder why we didn't see the thirst coming). Straight out of DAISO, we went for what ever that could give us quick comfort & that was MOF. Never in my wildest dreams could I have known that we'd head back to DAISO after being chased out reminded that the MOF kitchen is closed. Buying a few packs of Hello Kitty ziplocks (yes, there's a craze going on. no, I'm not a craze fan. I just wanted some patterned ziplock bags for cookies bags) and on to Cold Storage (again), finally ending it at Yamazaki.

I can't post photos of the Hello Kitty bags yet, but you can find them at the entrance of Tampines 1's DAISO outlet. What I can post is, photos of the used coffee grounds drying out.. heh.

   

Many thanks to the Starbucks crew of Tampines Mall, for the generous amount of used coffee grounds. My sweet basil babies thank you! ♥
