'Be Strong, Casper!' Episode 8,883: The One with The Mom's Birthday
This day was a hurried one for Casper
He spent the previous day cramming for a test held this morning
And it was scheduled from 9am to 10.30am
However, Casper was done by 10.15am and climbed up the stairs
Headed straight into another classroom for an additional class
It ended just before 1pm and he headed straight home
He rested a little before heading out with his family including his Eldest Aunt
They headed to Thomson Plaza, a childhood haunt for Casper and his sisters
Mommy wanted to celebrate her birthday with a hearty dinner at Swensen's
She used to bring Casper and his sisters there almost every weekend when they were still wee kids
Although the restaurant had a few face lifts, nostalgia still hangs in the air
Left: Aunt Chee Kin, Mommy, Crystal; Right Family photo
As a family restaurant, it certainly isn't fine dining
But they still enjoyed their meal as everyone was in a good mood
And this birthday meant a lot for Mommy after a close-shave with the pearly gates a few months back
Left: Prawn and Mango salad with jackfruit waiting to ambush Casper (he hates jackfruit!); Right Swensen's trademark presentation of fries
Left: Casper's BBQ half chicken; Right Crystal's fish & chips
Left: K's sambal grilled fish; Right K's Mint ice cream coffee
Left: Cheese-baked mussels; Right Mom's Fish baked rice
Left: Aunt CK's fish with apricot mayonnaise; Right One of the desserts, old school banana split
Casper gets on his Mom's nerves when he whips out the camera at eating places to take pictures of the food
But he still goes ahead anyway for the benefit of his viewers
Journalistic ethics? Haha!
They sang a hushed Happy Birthday song because Mommy's very shy
And she is just happy to be there with her children that she loves to no end
Casper loves his mommy too and wishes her a long and healthy life ahead
