Brew...ha ha, anyone?

It was a lovely weekend. It hardly rained. The sun was shining brightly, but the wind was extremely icy. So, it was quite cold, to be honest.

I woke up very early on Saturday morning, and managed to catch the qualifying round for the Australian F1. I haven't been to the gym all week because I was busy at work, so I decided to head to the gym to do my usual 5k run. I felt refreshed after that. My endorphin levels were starting to rise.....and I felt like doing something in town, ie shopping or catching a movie.

Jaclyn, Kevin's sis, invited me to catch a movie at the cinema. Before the movie, we went to this cafe called "Brewhaha." Yes, funky name, eh? I do wonder why it is called Brewhaha. It is a specialised tea shop, that also sells yummy cakes and sandiwches. It must be that upon drinking the tea, you'll be happy.....therefore, the "ha ha" bit of the name.

I had "Calming Tea," which was a mix of honeybush, vanilla and some flower petals....the taste was a little bland...but it was nice. Jaclyn had "Feel Good Tea," to soothe her tummy. We also had a slice of Lemon Drizzle Cake and Ginger Loaf...oooohh....yum yum. Would certainly go back...and this shop in Glasgow is the first tearoom for Brewhaha.

After adding more endorphins to our system (ie indulging in tasty food), we watched Duplicity. Oh...I really am so in love in Clive Owen. He is really hot. And I love the collaboration with Julia Roberts. If I have not mistaken, this is the 2nd time both of them worked together. The first movie was "Closer." The movie wasn't great....but the witty lines were funny.....and just ogling at Clive Owen was enough for me!

ahhh.....guess the nice time spent has compensated for my 1 hour less Sunday.
