Dome Coffee Time Out

I wasnt particularly in a hurry to go home on Thursday so i coyly (which is clearly 'direct' in my world) asked my other half to go for a coffee date after work.

so he said okay and "you pay!".... aaahhh... romantic isnt he? *rolleyes*

i dont mind.... much. mostly because he has been paying the bulk of the household items and i guess someone wanted to be 'manja-ed'. :P

i was actually aiming for the Dome Tea Set which was a bargain at RM19 . 90 ++ which consisted of two servings of scones with butter (it's actually clotted cream... yums) and strawberry jam, two samosas and a brownie. and a choice of either coffee or tea.

all i wanted was the scones but with hubby, i know he likes it too, so i couldnt ask him to eat the samosa and brownie on our date. so i ordered the set and waited for him. oh yeah, we're cheapos, so we usually share a mug of latte. :)

we usually do our own thing during our date, which is synonymous to a long standing marital status. comfortable in silence (in His view) and craving for intimacy (in Her iew). he would take on the newspapers or magazines and if i'm in the reading mode, i'd join him. at times, he just shares with me the bits of interesting articles he's reading. else, i just enjoy the food and regale him with my daily happenings. and he would usually respond accordingly or i would nag him 'til kingdom comes. hahaha...

okay... unwinding done, for less than an hour and it's time to head home. i had my short break after a hectic week of running around - either to meet my kids' routine, or to meet the work deadline.

i felt refreshed. and ready for another week of craziness. which is good, really, because i have things to do. :)

anyways, i have taken a picture of the said yummy scone for you to salivate on. well, it's not so yummy from my amateur attempt at food photography but it's passable.... just nod your head lah... ;)

Delicious Dome Scone

PS: wanted to post this during the coffee date before the other half arrived but with poor connectivity ( was seated at a nook ) i could only post it today, after full weekend away in Kuantan. oh yeah, plus, today i am on leave. :D
