Of belated gift and surreptitious photo-taking


A very nice shot by Ms One-Zero.

The morning ended with us drinking kopi at Ya-Kun, after we had gone round to hunt for that perfect gift. Between a suitably elegant necklace and a pair of classy looking candle holder, we both settled for the same choice, which we consider to be slightly less common, hopefully therefore more special.

Like a pro, we took photos of the gifts surreptitiously - me positioning the camera in furtive angles, she acting the interested customer. It was not a junvenile act, but part of our elaborate gift plan, which includes pictures of our hunting in action and, of course, our handwritten notes and jibes. A pity i did not take a photo of her waiting at Starbucks in the early morning when only a few souls were around - this would have been a nice prelude.

Come Monday, our fun shall continue. And we fully expect praise and an outpouring of gratitude from the recipient. Nothing less!
