💘💞💕 thank you everyone who braved the transport-less city last night to celebrate with me and eat an insane amount of cake. Thank you to beautiful @suyin.du.bois and @pairedaeza who read luminous poems and accidentally coordinated their outfits. Thank you to my sewing machine for holding up through elastic thread and paper-thin vintage silk (a dress and three silk bags sewn fairly last minute). Thank you Jo and Telka of @pagesofhackney , and Jane and Angela of @ninearchespress ! 💌💌💌🐚🐚🐚🌊🌊🌊

早安. Breakfast this morning at Hong Lim Food Centre, Singapore Quieter, calmer and more local than some of the bigger hawker centres I’ve been to in SG. We went for Sabah Sandakan braised pork dry noodles & hokkien prawn mee. Not pictured: zongzi, two curry puffs and a calamansi lime juice 🍋‍🟩
