Tis the Season!

Caught the flu bug, am sick at home today. With a runny nose, slight fever and aching muscles (which I honestly can't tell whether it's from the flu or the gym work-out last evening), the rainy weather made staying at home extra restful. Honestly, it's been a while since I last fell ill. People around me would notice that I fall sick maybe once every year or two? All the times when The Boy is sick, I never catch on the illness. Yeah, I thank God for that.

That aside, the Basic Cooking Class at Palate Sensations is coming to an end, with the last class this Saturday. While I'm excited about the free Saturdays from then on to try out the recipes, am already checking what classes I can take on next.

Found a couple of really useful and exciting ones in November. How timely for the upcoming festive season! I've already signed up for them....Anyone wants to join me in the fun??
