Ritz Lemon Crackers

 

Ritz Lemon Flavoured Crackers in packet

I first try this Ritz Lemon Flavoured Crackers on 10 May 2021.  I chanced upon it during my visit to Giant at Woodlands North Plaza.  There were only a few packets left on the shelf.  I only bought a packet to try.  Back at home, I opened up the sandwich to try.  

Ritz Lemon Flavoured Crackers 

My first try of it was a good experience.  It was so good.  It was a good snack.  Better than peanut butter crackers from Julie.  It was sweet, tangy and salty.  The cream was just nice, not too much, not too little.  In a few days, I finished the whole packet of Ritz.  I wanted to buy more of it.  

I went online to look for it, but Redmart and Fairprice did not have it.  All no stock.  I went to Woodlands North Plaza to buy from Giant, and there was no stock also.  Every now and then I checked for stock availability, but to no avail.  Finally yesterday at Cold Storage (Causeway Point), I saw it and grabbed 4 packets of it -- 2 for me and 2 for my mother.

Second Dose Vaccination

 

Items received on Second Dose of Vaccination 

I went for my second dose of vaccination on 14 May 2021.  My mother asked me to drink more water and also to drink Ginseng before the jab.  The weather was fine on that day.  I booked my appointment at 4pm.  

I went to Woodlands Community Club on 14 May 2021.  There was no queue at 4pm.  As usual like first dose, when I entered the hall, I was given a bottle of mineral water.  Then I showed them my NRIC and proceed to the next counter.  At the registration counter, they checked my particulars and I answered a few questions and later on I proceed to the vaccination counter.  This time, I looked at the needle, to see where it was injected.  Upon injection, there was not much pain at all.  Surprisingly!

So after the jab, I had to go next counter for observation.  I sat there for 30minutes.  At 30 minutes, my name was called.  I went to the counter, they gave me the vaccination certificate and a packet of mask.  After that I went home.  Fast and easy.  

                                            Reusable mask that was given 

That night, my left arm was a bit sore.  I also had a fever of 38.4 degree the next day.  After 2 days the soreness from the hand was gone and my fever was okay too.  For my first dose, I only had hand soreness, no fever.  But was tired.

7 days candle

 

Photograph of 7 days candle 

My mother bought so many of this candle after my father died.  2 of such candles were lit at my father's altar everyday, until 100 days.  So there were left overs and I took some home to use.  

My brother had gone to so many places to look for this candle.  At last they bought it at Carlo Catholic Services Ltd, 225B Queen street.  Each of this 7 days candle in white plastic container cost $7.90.  It can be lit for day and night continuously for 6 days and night, even though it says 7 days.  At the end of it, it will automatically be extinguished.  

Happy Mothers' Day

 

D sent me this Happy Mothers' Day message on Saturday.  She still remembered me, so touched.  She is such a sincere friend.  This mother's day, I never buy anything for mum, but when I went to her house, I gave her a packet of boiled scallops and sotong youtiao.  I gave her a red packet, but she returned me, saying that I am also a mother.  

During my childhood days, my mother always said, "听话就好" during mother's day if we gave her presents.  The words mean be obedient.  I also hoped that my children will be obedient too.

Last night, Clara came to my room and gave me a small pouch containing the bracelet.  She had made another bracelet to give me some months ago.  The bracelet was elastic ones, and I told her that I was scared that the elastic string will break like my previous ones which I had bought.  So this time she made a non elastic ones.  Thank you so much Clara for always being so thoughtful.  

For dinner we ate Laksa.  I bought Laksa from PGFN.  We want to order from Tian Tian Chi Mian, but it was closed already.  I bought two bowls of Laksa.  I prefer Laksa from Tian Tian Chi Mian, but PGFN got more tao pok, which I like.  When I finished my Laksa, Clara came to show me hers.  Her Laksa was contaminated with a worm-like rusty wire.  She was disgusted.

I sent in a feedback message to Grab.  Later on they called me to verified the matter.  They said they will look into it before they can proceed with refund.  Later on, I received an email saying that I was refunded $4.60.   

I think NEA should look into matters like this.  This is not the only case in Singapore news.  Some other people had experienced similar issues in other food at other stalls.
