Better late amlaksa than never

The wife left for work at around 7.45am. Even before then, he had already started on the routine schedule - picked up the kiddy cousins and sent the children to school. Then he did the Tuesday grocery shopping at CFEP, started cleaning the house, and he even bought yong taufu as takeaways to be a treat for the children as the children love this dish and there is no way he is making yong taufu on his own as it involves too much work. Dishing up complex meals is not his forte. Before he knew it, half the day was gone and he had to go and pick up one of the children at 3pm. The wife came home early but dinner was not ready. In the end, they settled for a late dinner at about 9pm as the wife wanted to eat assam laksa and both of them took a while to cook that. The effort was worth it as the assam laksa was comparable to Ah Loy's.
