Christmas Is Coming!

i love love love love Christmas.

hands down my favorite holiday of the year,
and in Belfast it's really celebrated!
pretty lights are everywhere and
in the City Hall, they've set up a Christmas Market
which i went with some Msians today (:



City Hall all pimped out.

see the Belfast Wheel?!!!
everywhere's having their own Wheels
and the Belfast one is really small!
haven't gone on it and but i've heard
that the VIP ones had a TV inside,
which is totally ridiculous because....

WHO WOULD WANT TO WATCH TV
WHEN YOU'RE UP ON A FERRIS WHEEL?!!

so silly!


that is a whole pig turning round and round.

the Christmas Market was mainly stalls
from Europe selling food/other misc stuff.
and ohhhh, GLORIOUS FOOD!


the fudge stall selling loads and loads of fudge.

there was lots of European food
and the place smelt heavenly.
mmm (:



some stall selling bottles of curry stuff.

they had this one called Malaysian Rendang
which was really sweet and didn't taste
like anything at all that i've tried before!

liars la!


just look at the sausages la.

you can't really see them in this pic,
but there were as long as my arm!
there were at least 2 stalls selling
these super giant long sausages
and they looked so good i bought one (:


mine and Jay's.

SO GIANT RIGHT!!
it was so difficult to eat la, really.
hot dogs are one of the most difficult
foods to eat EVER i think.

cause you know sometimes the sausage
has a skin-thing which is really difficult
to bite off and then you're stuck with
your mouth full and you're struggling to
bite it off without getting yourself
smeared with the mustard and ketchup.
i took over half an hour to eat i think.


trays and trays and TRAYS of yummy cookies.

for me who loves baked goods
it was really hard to resist ):
look at them calling out to you!


more trays of Turkish Delight.

there was so much food that
i couldnt make a decision on what to get
(you know how incredibly indecisive i am)
so in the end i only ate the sausage
and got one cup of hot mulled wine.
):


more baked stuff.

us being Malaysians,
we went around looking for samples
and tried all the free samples there were
(: haha so typical right!


giant Pick 'n' Mix!

at this sweet shop right,
EVERYTHING was giant.
crazy huse sticks of marshmallows, liquorice,
and lollipops are big as your face!


giant liquorice sticks.

these were as long as the sausages above!
almost everything at the market was plus sized,
which made it really hard to resist but
since the prices were pretty freaking high
i didn't get anything else (:


this photo is for Joey.
loads and loads and LOADS of coffee beans.
thank God that you don't have to make
all the different coffees everyday from
so many different coffee beans okay!


monkey chocolate!

there were chocolate monkeys, lions,
and my favorite one of all, chocolate ELEPHANTS!
yum (:
if only they made chocolate cows huh.


look at the amazing cupcakes!

oh i just thought of something.
there's this cupcake brand here whose tagline
is 'Pick me, Choose me, Eat me!'
to those who watch Grey's,
i'm sure you can recognise this line (:


oooh mulled wine.

i had some hot mulled wine
and it was yummy (:
i'm not really sure what it is
but it was purple, fruity and really hot.
as usual, i burnt my tongue!

don't you love Christmas too?
