One of my Daily Routines

After we moved, I made up some routines to clean my house in order not to get lazy… I gave up cleaning my old home and I learned a lot! I'm glad it was a rent. haha

Anyways, I use Quickle Wiper to clean the floor. It's a dust-collecting mop which you can attach disposable duster (either dry or wet).



Actually, I prop it up against the wall like this so that I can use it anytime when I find a dust on the floor… but the problem is it falls over once in a while and make marks on the floor X(

So, I wrapped a pink towel!



Now it is safe to fall over! And the pink makes me happier to clean the house :D



But my darling says I am doing too much… but what if I gave up cleaning?! Better than doing nothing, you know!!!

Afternoon Tea Failed X'(

On the weekend, my darling and I've been to Futakotamagawa (again) to have the three-tiered afternoon tea of my dream!

However I erroneously assumed that the Afternoon Tea TEAROOM has the three-tiered menu… just because it's name is afternoon tea… so we ended up eating seasonal cakes. sobs X'(



Seasonal Shortcake (shortcake with yogurt mousse and citrus jelly)



Seasonal Cheesecake (rare and baked cheesecake with ginger sauce)



Since we went back to Futakotamagawa, I finally bought the flower bag that I was thinking whether to get it or not… because it wasn't on sale I couldn't make an immediate decision. haha



Then we shopped at Tokyu Foodshow where many famous delicious delis (and sweets shops) gather together selling foods to go :D Here are the list of the shops there.

We found something called Singapore rice :D



We shopped at 5 delis and I served them all on one plate "for each" so that we don't fight over food! LoL



Do you separate plates for each?! hehe

Till next time ;)
