We made plans, oh yes, wonderful
well-laid out plans. Got my parents and Nanny to babysit, planned to go for an
all-day feasting at hipster dining spots together and watch the latest movie.
But as always, our plans turned out to be just that, plans.
We spent our 7th
wedding anniversary together at home, followed by a swim with Harry at the
pool. Then as we were making our way out, we found out that Zach’s family are
nearby, hence we decided to catch up with them first before going ahead on our
anniversary plans. The catch up turned to lunch at Fickles, TTDI.
Owned by a friend of Zach’s, this
neat café actually has some delicious bottled coffees with loads of uber good
flavours. I particularly love the mocha and chocolate ones. Parking, as in any
place in TTDI, can be a pain in the neck. But the place is well lit and really
bright during the day. We were all famished and wanted something super quick to
eat hence most of us either ordered burgers or nasi lemak. Not the usual café fanfare
I know, but yea, we were really hungry. The nasi lemak I had was good though,
serving was quite big, hence I could easily share it with Harry, who woke up
just in time as the food arrives.
Since Harry’s wide awake now,
after Zach’s family left, we didn’t have the heart to just leave him be at my
parents’ and since my parents are out anyway, we decided to take Nanny and
Harry out for a spin, so we went for a short outing to the Curve. Just a quick
walk around, window shopping and got Harry to play at the indoor play area.
Finally, we got home just before
Maghrib and it was basically only after Maghrib that our “private” anniversary
event began. Needless to say, we didn’t have the time nor the energy to do what
we had planned, hence we just went for a quiet dinner at this restaurant called
Peter and Mawar at Sunway Nexus, which we’ve been meaning to check out. The
name itself is kinda inspiring and the ambience was perfect for a romantic
night out. We even had the chance to spot celebs who were doing filming there,
which was kinda cool.
We both loved what we had and had
a quiet evening together, which was probably more splendid than the fun filled
evening we had planned. So, our 7th anniversary was about family and
that’s I guess what’s most important and gives us that beautiful heartwarming
feeling at the end.
