Nice folks

At 33 week with a big tummy , the folks at Eunos market place are pleasantly surprised to see me faithfully making my weekly trip for fresh purchases still.

I was so touched when the fish monger aunty offered to do home delivery for me during my confinement. " Just give me a call, list down all the things you need, including stuffs from the pork and fish stalls. We will drop by  your place since it's on the way", aunty told me.

Call it chemistry, but I have a special liking for this fish monger aunty..... feel very comfortable with her.

I enjoy going to the market place, and I make it a point to be there as early as 6.30am. It's not crowded at all during this time and I find it easier to chit-chat and foster relationships with the market folks. They are really very nice and simple folks...... a cheerful and diligent bunch of people.

Their concerns range from asking when I am due, making sure I don't carry heavy stuffs........to constantly reminding me that the floor is slippery.

It's a very heart-warming feeling, really.

Of course, I love being addressed as " Xiao mei" affectionately by most of them too..... hee..... imagine being called " xiao mei" at this ripe age of 32.... quite shiok leh, the feeling.
