Chubby Tummies : Canopy at Bishan Park

I still can't get over the fact that it's already November. November smells like Christmas on the doorstep, it smells like holidays coming along and if we try really hard, we may imagine snow flakes on our windows despite the warm humid weather. It's the time of the year people feel little more relaxed and the atmosphere is generally happier, chipper and well, merrier. I'm getting excited thinking about what lies ahead of us for the rest of the year, the projects i wish i would do (and may never get around doing) and the things we would prepare for Christmas.

And just like that, it's been a full school year since we made the decision for me to stay home and take care of the little one. It's getting really enjoyable and I'm proud to say that I've acquired a few skills of my own. Meanwhile, a much slower pace of life and loads more free time also made a happier me. Weekends for one are no longer a rush to get things done, enjoy ourselves and complete a thousand other things we wished we could do during the week. And I find myself finding great joy in a slow brunch and a cup of coffee with the family.

To be honest, this wouldn't count as a food review because the only photos i have of the food are the one with pancakes and steamed milk. Food isn't incredibly impressive; we recall eating a better version of everything else elsewhere. The price on the other hand lies on the lower end of the recent cafes bubble in Singapore, pretty reasonable if you ignore the fact that you are not in town. What really beats hand down is the ambiance and friendly staff in this cafe - we pretty much made ourselves at home and sat for as long as a toddler could endure (couple of hours). The staff didn't mind the little one wandering around and the neighbourhood crowd was friendly too.

And the best part of it all? Being able to wander around Bishan Park to walk off the full tummies and allow the little one to run wild! I like to imagine we are in Australia or something, surrounded by nature and blue skies.
