Lunch Date

I ate salmon maki, sashimi rice, chicken teriyaki and a mango smoothie for lunch (oink!) Did I mention that I also had Mrs. Fields cookies an hour before? Gosh! Am on my way to fatty land!

Since I felt guilty about everything I shoved down my throat, I decided to walk around the vicinity of my office in Causeway Bay to burn some calories (yeah right). After a few steps, I saw Hermes and Chanel on my left, Gucci and Tod's on my right. Not a good sign! This place is shopaholics' land!

I ended up in Lee Gardens and went to the children's floor. Saw the orange Burberry dress for my daughter and even if I really liked it, I still couldn't justify paying 1,400 HKD for one. So, I moved on to the next store, Seed, a children's clothing line from Australia.

Felt like I was in heaven! I palpitated when I saw their spring-summer collection. I am not gonna shop... I am not gonna shop! Now, breathe! Their stuff were perfect for my daughter... feminine, playful, preppie and practical! Seed is just like Gap and Zara Baby, just a bit more expensive. Okay, a tad more expensive! But their clips, shoes, denims, swimsuits were irresistible! It's so her style! The saleslady must have seen the reaction on my face when I was browsing around and said, "They are really cute huh?" I told her I would definitely come back. Besides, lunch break is over.



Next time, please remind me to just call the Thai resto beside our office to deliver some cheap and cheerful Pad Thai. It's dangerous for shopaholics like me to roam around the busiest shopping area of Hong Kong with fave shopping companions, VISA and MASTERCARD! I am banned for now...
