Complete Housewife & The Accidental Tree

I'm doomed.

I'm Liya and I'm a Domesticalic.

Now that I do have a little shack I'm totally devoted to it. From what I buy to what I make..its all for this darn little shack. Do you think I have some sort of domestic-alic disorder? Like a alcoholic, but I'm just obsessed with my house? You think? And you think I could get cured? Or maybe I could just be optimistic and say I'm all for Martha Stewart. Its undecided. Yet.

Well..besides being busy with contractors still fixing up things here and there..yes...still!...I love my time in the kitchen. I love preparing dinners and all the snacks I've been preparing for Chinese New Year. Ohhh..and I love the lighting too..it's way better for photos wont you agree?

So this was last night's dinner...Fish noodle soup..I had planned to blog a recipe some time down the track..but guess who got super hungry and didn't take the 'after' shots? Another time.

Ok...and here's the tree I have a love/hate relationship with. [Kindly excuse my poor dieing arrangement of pandan leaves and messy living room..thank you..I know I should of Photoshopped...or cleaned up atleast..and did you notice my clock? look at the time!!...Yes..it's midnight...and why am I still up?? Contractors!!..Urgh...!!...Contractors were still at my house at midnight!!.. Urgh...But I will stay composed...I will...I will..]

You see..I got some wall decals some time ago..thinking it would be just perfect against my purple-grey feature wall. I thought it was white. Wrong. I thought it would adhere nicely. Wrong. I thought it was reuseable. Wrong. [All false marketing I swear!] So I hated it..I decided I would tear it down and get it painted over. There's nothing wrong with a bare wall afterall. So I ripped all the decals out..and I got this...

I loved the texture..I loved the white that shows through..I loved it...until this contractor came up to me and said it looks like a unfinished paint job. Hmph. Can't you see its a tree?...So now I'm not sure. ..And being a Domesticalic...the question haunts me. Great.
