Island Princess & Little Treats

Anthea is very into Barbie shows. I think we have almost all the collections of Barbie shows - Fairytopia, Mermaidia, Princess & the Pauper, 12th Dancing Princesses, Rapunzal,Swan Lake, Nutcrackers - you named it, we have it...haha.

So the latest addition to her collection is - Barbie as Island Princess. She had been eyeing on this show for a while and kept saying that she viewed the show on Computer while at my inlaws house.


Yesterday, while we were at a VCD shop, my colleague was purchasing VCD/DVDs for work purposes. I was browsing through the VCDs when i saw the words - Movie Musical on Island Princess, i knew i have to buy it. We enjoyed Princess & the Pauper very much because it's a musical and the songs are all very mesmerizing and i love them. So i hope that this musical will be as good as that. When i showed Anthea the VCDs, she was elated and kept jumping up & down. After she cooled down, she said "Thank you, mommy." I am really glad that she is appreaciative of this small kind.

At the same time, after buying the VCDs. I discovered a new Muffins/Donuts shop. The name of this shop is - The Little Treats. I bought a box of 6 muffins - Apple Cinnamon, Chocolate Delight, Blueberry, Strawberry and Cheese. They shop has a promo card for stamping and i believe the challenge is to collect 6 stamps to get 1 FREE box of muffins or donuts.



I must say or admit that the muffins were really, really GOOD. After eating so many different brand of muffins...hee.

I had the Apple Cinnamon and the apple was well cooked to the taste. My only complaint is too little fillings. The chocolate delight was just nice and the chocolate is not too sweet.

My colleague tried a double chocolate donut but she said it's too sweet to her liking. I will try one the next time i buy my next batch of muffins... : )

(sigh..how to lose weight like this... : P )

Hi Angelcow,

They are affordable. Each muffins & donuts is at $1.20. Buy 5 & get 1 FREE...so each cost $1. However, the donut size is smaller compared to the others branded one..hee : )

Muffins size are standard. Ask Clement to lunch in TP & buy some for you to sample..hee : P

cheers,
