Week 50: Nov 26 to Dec 2

Monday I finally had no-one else at home so I went for a long overdue pedicure, and I went to IKEA on Tuesday. We went to Suzis for steak on Tuesday, fogetting that the steak hut is closed on Tuesdays. So we had Lebanese there instead. 
Wedesday morning I had morning tea at BIG at Publika with Michelle and Julie, then we did a little shopping.
Thursday I went to Little India with Toni. I had to get some clothes for us all to wear the following night to a Deepavali night at Steve's work. I bought suits for both the kids, a cotton shirt for Steve and 2 saris for me because I couldn't decide on just one. Then we went to an Indian department store and supermarket and spent ages looking at all the yummy food. That night we went to Red Box Karaoke with Kate, Corrine and one of the other guys teaching the course with them. It was a great night, we had our own little room and a buffet dinner and sang our hearts out.
Friday night we all got dressed up to go to Deepavali night, then as we went to leave the car wouldn't start. Mr Foo, the car guy, couldn't make it until the following morning and we decided against a taxi because Friday night traffic is always really bad. Apparently we missed a good night.
We had a pretty quiet day on Saturday and went out to Out of Africa with the Benders on Sunday for lunch after going to 1 Utama Shopping Centre. We left Out of Africa at about 4 as the clouds started rolling in and went to their place for one more drink. One more turned into a few more and we were there till after midnight. We are really going to miss them next year!

Another great unplanned margarita night with the Bender family; a drink at Tom, Dick & Harry's before karaoke with Kate,Al and  Corinn; dressed up for Deepaval; love the teacups at BIG cafe; IKEA purchases.
