Wanted to take Aary to the farms at Lim Chu Kang, but when we got there we realised most of them were closed on Mondays. Thankfully, we managed to find one that was open.

Searched online and most said the admission was free but we actually had to pay $10 per pax for adults, though admission is free for kids. To feed the cows & goats, we had to pay an additional $10 for a handful of grass.

Aaryanna was a little scared to go near the cows at first. I think becos of how huge they are up close, which she didn't expect. She ended up feeding only the baby goats, I think becos they are less intimidating!

Overall, though the farm was pretty run down and not as big as I expected, we still enjoyed ourselves.

Chinese New Year is just around the corner and I'm sure, like me, everyone else is looking for Chinese New Year Goodies. I went down to the yearly fair at Takashimaya early this year as I was craving badly for Pineapple Balls but the queues were so long and we weren't even allowed to try samples this year due to Covid-19.

Thankfully, I found PineappleTart.com online. After scrolling through their website I found the reviews rather enticing and the prices affordable. PineappleTart.Com swears by their pastries and promises to use only Premium Ingredients and NO PRESERVATIVES else, there will be a FULL REFUND. What?!

Being passionate about producing quality, they are also strongly against factory made goodies and thus every is MADE BY HAND.
After hearing these, I was so stoked to receive the goodies.

Aaryanna was as excited as I was to receive the goodies, so of course, I had to rope her in on her thoughts as well.

We tried the Award Winning Melt-In-Your-Mouth Kueh Bangkit, Kueh Bangkit (Pandan Flavour), Kueh Bangkit (Gula Melaka), Nyonya Pineapple Tart, Award Winning Melt-In-Your-Mouth Pineapple Tart, Salted Egg Crabstick Cracker, Peanut Cookies & Premium Spicy Hae Bee Hiam Roll.

Award Winning Melt-In-Your-Mouth Kueh Bangkit

The coconut cream, powdered sugar and tapioca flour literally Melts-In-Your-Mouth. It's not too sweet and the Coconut flavour is the perfect blend. I wasn't able to stop at just one! :X I loved this & it was My Top Pick out of all the CNY Goodies! *** It's no surprise why it's Award Winning.

Kueh Bangkit (Pandan Flavour)

Just like the Original Kueh Bangkit, the Kueh Bangkit (Pandan Flavour) literally melts in your mouth. Pandan flavour is very fragrant yet not too overpowering.

Kueh Bangkit (Gula Melaka)

Adding peranakan twist to their original recipe, this Kueh Bangkit Gula Melaka from PineappleTart.com melts in your mouth. I honestly expected it to be very sweet but surprisingly, it's not. The Gula Melaka flavour is subtle yet still flavourful.

Nyonya Pineapple Tart

Pineapple tart has a very nice buttery crust. However, the pineapple topping was abit too sweet for my liking.
Would be perfect for you if you like sweet stuff.

This is PineappleTart.com key product and imho, a must try! It has a soft buttery crust that's very soft and creamy on the outside.
The pineapple filling is very generous as well.

Salted Egg Crabstick Cracker

Crabsticks are all the rage these days, I've tried the original & mala ones previously but it's the first time I'm hearing of these Crabstick Crackers in Salted Egg flavour. This savoury and sweet combo is so addictive that this is Aaryanna's Top Pick ***
