Seven Heaven
Yes.. !! i had laksa .. the authentic ones.. from home.. and all because of the kindness and generousity of one person.. whom i have never met.. but only from her blog - Bochup’s Blog. Gracie who is the owner of this blog.. and a Singaporean married to an American in SF.. and continuing with her studies in USF, is such a special person and i’m not saying it because she sent me so many things in January before she left for home.. for CNY.
Remember this post, when i said. . i would post about the other stuff she sent as well..
.. well .. Prima Taste Laksa was one of it. I didn’t post about the food earlier.. because thanking Gracie once would just be not enough.. to show how grateful i am.
As i took my first bite of Laksa this evening…. for the first time in 6yrs.. i cannot help.. but feel like crying.. because it sure tasted like home. And more heartfelt.. because it is from someone.. who is so thoughtful and kind.. as Gracie, who had unconditionally sent this care package to me.. costing her quite a fair bit in postage i must say.
Thank you very much .. Gracie! You do not know how happy you’ve made me.. and having the priviledge to get to know someone as special as you online, makes me feel extra blessed. God Bless You and Wen .. Gracie..!

yum yum… i remember prima taste laksa, goody! seriously, you should bring Cloe to Singapore one of these days… so you can have all the food your are missing, and introduce the asian heritage to her… kill 2 birds with one stone kekekekz..

I’m glad you got to try Laksa after so long - I’d hope for someone to do the same for me if I were in your shoes =) Glad I could do it for you. Hope you get a chance to bring Chloe to visit Singapore or at least the Bay Area so u can also satisfy yr cravings and stock up on seasoning packets. =)

It really looks good..
Btw, you are not taking away the Hiatus post? I see new post you’d posted in Feed reader, but when I check, it’s always the Hiatus post updated.
It’s only today that I decide to click on your url link that I found you did put new posts!
