One mission became another

Household
The plan was to go Tesco to grab just 3 items. Instant noodles, Mamy Poko (ehemm..if still available – RM26.90!!!) and Pancake Mix. Daddy was out for colleague’s wedding dinner, so we could go according to Mommy’s schedule. We head off to HSBC at 830pm last night to withdraw money first.Arrived @ Tesco about 9pm, whoa..jam packed.  

Difficult to find parking, but we were lucky. Even the trolleys were almost gone. Goshh…is it really that cheap!!! Anyway, the plan to get 3 items from Tesco ended up getting like 30 items or so. That’s always the usual case when you go hypermarket shopping. The whole trolley was fully loaded with jsut a few groceries, but most of it are household items. In the end, suppose to spend like RM60 for the trip ended up with a whooping RM460!!!. Big hole in the pocket.

Lets see what we’ve got here..

guiness malta & apple juice for Daddy & Mommy. I’m still very much craving for the Malt drink, so occasionally I’ll go stock up a few cans to quench my thirst at night.

milk powder, cornflakes ,baked beans and can soup. Can soup for days when we decide to eat western food at home :). Cornflakes, something new for Faythe perhaps? And not forgetting the pancake mix (plan to make pancake)  


some stocking of Instant Noodles. Mamee Mi Goreng is the best 🙂


dairies & yoghurt. Part of it are Faythe’s supply. As for the cheese, that’s for this week’s dinner….slurp slurpp…will blog bout it if turns out successful kekeke

nasi goreng perencah for the maid. When we are not around and maid cooks only for herself, she uses this as the seasoning for her fried rice. 
portobello mushroom, white mushroom and baby carrots. Part of the dinner for next week too. 
crackers for maid. Potato chips for Mommy. Yes!! Lately I’ve got potato chips craving *weird*. Seems like this lil one likes junk food :( 
lastly some household items and maid’s roll-ons. They have this body odour on them, especially when they sweat, but lucky thing she’s pretty clean, so she request for roll-ons from time to time. 
Ooppss..not forgetting 2 bags of XL Mamy Poko (no photo). That completes the shopping list. And shall be the last of the Poko *curse*
