Black Pepper Fried Rice and Hotpot Rice on a Friday

A few weeks ago I managed to arrange a date lunch with R. We went for lunch at Downtown East during a weekday. It had been an extremely long time since I last had lunch with him as he has been flying around for business and was seldom home. It was good to have some couple time even though it was just slightly over an hour.

I ordered the black pepper beef fried rice while R opted for the Korean Chicken Fried rice that was served in the hot pot.

As it was an extremely hot day we ordered ice-drinks to go along with our meal. He had lime juice while I had blueberry juice. I love how they coated the mugs with a ring of salt. It makes the beverage all the more classy.

What did you eat the last time you went on a lunch date?

The internet has certainly revolutionize our world since it was rapidly developed in the 1980s-1990s.  I remember back in the old days I was mainly on the internet to check my e-mails, research for material needs in writing assignments and chat via ICQ to R.  The first e-mail account I had back then was on Hotmail which I do occasionally use now and then and started my first blog on blogger. Things and the way internet is being used has certainly changed dramatically since then.

It has been a fun and exciting adventure being on the internet. There were so many sites which I could check out and lots to learn about. Problogger and Simplemom were among the sites which I used to visit frequently. Back then I found their sites very informative and it sparked off my interest in creating my own space here in cyberspace.

As I went about deciding on how to create my space. I consulted sites like Hongkiat and Noupe for design inspiration and help with the more technical aspects of blogging. I still visit these sites whenever I need some creative inspiration and they do have gems of information in their blogs.

These days  I read more posts from other mommy bloggers from SMB and also a wider variety of sites/blogs to fuel my passions in food and photography.

How was it for you when you were first introduced to the internet?

What sites did you frequent most?
