My Weekend Post

This weekend is relatively uneventful for me. Did my laundry on both Saturday and today. Yesterday afternoon went out to Vivocity - donut hunting. Recently there seems to be a donut fever going on in Singapore. Franchise donuts stores are sprouting all over the city-state rapidly. It started with the donut shop at Raffles City Shopping Center at City Hall MRT.

It is weird that being in Singapore for 5 years now, I have NOT seen a donut store (other than the neighbourhood bakeries or 7-11) before now. In addition, each of these newly opened donut stores attracts long queues - either because their oven is too slow or number of people deprived of donuts is overwhelming. This is especially evident at Raffles City SC where the queue extends across several shops and 'breaks' in between walk-paths - it's scary I tell you. Will try it out one day, either during this Donut Craze period...... or after the craze has died off (like how bubble tea and roti-boy/mama/papa craze has died - till now I don't even know which roti was the original coffee bread... the worst thing is that ..... they are nowhere to be found now.)

On a side note, recently my friends have been receiving these scam phonecalls supposedly from a HK company announcing that they have won a lucky draw. The people involved in this scam is especially organized and unbelievably convincing as what Kenny Sia blogged in this post. So do take care when receiving these suspicious calls.
