The next stop was Lumbermart, who offers beautiful solid hardood flooring. We were both drooling over the Burmese teak which had beautiful grains and of course Belian which is so scarce nowadays. The beautiful thing about wood is every piece is unique and they are just so full on life when you look at it. The wood is actually still "alive" even after the tree is harvested and if not installed properly, you will encounter problems like "swollen floor" or gaps between the wood strips. We have not exactly made up our mind yet so the information we gathered was purely for our reference only.
After we left Lumbermart, Sofia fell asleep in the car as it was close to her nap time. We planned to drop her home as Daddy wanted to go for some property talk. Unfortunately, we were caught in a traffic jam just 5 mins away from home. The jam was so bad that it made all of us so hungry, we decided to head off for lunch straight away. It so happen we were just right outside a small Korean restaurant we have never tried before and we decided to try it today. Fortunately, they have a non-spicy fish soup which is suitable for Sofia and of course, she loves their soft and sticky rice!
They were also very considerate to have Ikea utensils for kids and Sofia had such great fun with the cup.
Hey look! I know how to drink from the cup!
And the wheat tea here is so delicious!
Can you see my mouth?
See, I can even cover my nose!
And squash the cup against my chubby cheeks!
I drank all the wheat tea, right to the very last drop!
No more!
Give you the cup? NO WAY!
I did not bring any of Sofia's books or toys to keep her entertained and was worried she would make it difficult for us. Luckily she amused herself with the cup and plate and a small pinch of sticky rice in her hands. Of course she ended with a sticky hand after we were all done but the small pinch of rice was really all she need to be occupied.
Haha, this shall be my secret weapon the next time we are "toyless"!
