Today I’m glad to have this little new installment in my apartment— a dining table. It’s woody, barky and doesn’t come from the shelves of IKEA. Don’t get me wrong though. I still love the Swedish "McDonald’s" approach to furniture. But I thought I’d allow some variety into my home this year. The one I had before, in fact, was a white table for two from IKEA. It fit perfectly in the small apartment I lived in. This time around, I have about 900 square feet of space to play around with. With this table in tow, I can now host dinner parties or Sunday brunches with more comfort. Cheers to more food on the table!
This New Year, I spent time walking down Jonker St. in Malacca with my childhood friend M. We were also there with a few of her friends for a short vacation. We actually met eighteen years ago in school and remained good friends ever since. Together, we shopped in antique stores, received foot massages, made our own ice cream out of Oreos, raspberries and strawberries, and spent hours just talking like good old girlfriends during tea. It was lovely to catch up out of town once in awhile.
Today I'm just glad that 2012 has passed. What a year that was. What a year.
