Here We come,Tanger's Outlet!!

It's been a while I didn't visit Tanger's Premium Outlet at Riverhead.The last time I was there with some friends coming in from NYC and that was almost a year ago.Usually I don't go there by myself eventhought the outlet is 30 minutes away from our home.Elliot did mentioned,he want to get some Champion t-shirt at the outlet and I'm looking for skillet and pan for my kitchen.So on Monday,I told Elliot that we going to Tanger's and he agree but we leave home about 4 pm,kind of late.Well,luckily the rush hour is not really bad.
This Tanger's outlet have 2 section,that is A and B.Mostly this premium outlet sell branded clothes and shoes.Years ago whenever I visited premium outlet I was so excited to shop at every store.Of course I came out with 2-3 shopping bags!!.At the end of the day,my car was fully packed with bags.I still have all the new clothes with tags from my shopping years ago ,now in roughneck containers in garage and store room.You must wonder why I didn't wear all the clothes in the roughneck container!.Honestly,the size of my clothes ranging from size 4 to 10!!how to wear mini skirt and baby t-shirt with few spare tires now??lol!!. already old and fat,so now Mishu inherited all my clothes !
oh! this gal want to ride hot rod car!!..She know we going to seat her in stroller or shopping cart ,so she quickly ask me to let her wear her harness!!
Her harness Curious George always in my van...see?.she prefer to be tied up rather than locked up in her stroller.
At first Elliot used her harness to pull her ,then he said people give him weird look. Elliot looking for denim jacket in Levi's. What else is crazy now?Of course his Honda-Davidson!!
Mishu busy hiding in the pants and shirts rack!!
She let me call her all the times.
She want to ride Mr Softy but later she see something more interesting than Mr Softy...here
See.....!! That is a moving train!!
Daddy paid $2.00 at the train station.
I remember years ago it's just $1.00 for a ride ...well I guess this train need gasoline to run as well!
Mishu happily ride the whole train by herself
I think it's about 3-4 round of ride.
Daddy watch Mishu riding the train and I quickly run into few shop nearby look ,see, look ,see!!.
Nothing fancy me..too bad the Champion store closed down..so no T-shirt for daddy!.

Later I want something cold from Starbucks.Look this gal,she love teapot!
I get a Caramel frappacino.Mishu can't wait ,keep nagging me to let her drink .
Daddy and mommy waiting for Mishu to get the first taste of this $5.00 drink.
oh! this Frappacino is really good!! but too sweet for me...Ok..let go...we're quite disappointed,didn't get the things we want at this outlet.
I told Elliot we're going to Modell's and other retail store nearby..Look what I found!!A heavy duty aluminum 12 inch skillet by Kitchen Aid! I love this skillet with copper base especially the price.!!I prefer aluminum skillet for pan fried and deep fried.I read somewhere,don't use Teflon or non stick to pan fried or deep fried your food,it's bad for your health,the possibility of getting cancer too.
Look.... I can use this skillet in the oven Yes,it's $19.99 plus tax and I get it from my favourite discount store,HomeGoods!
We found Elliot's Champion t-shirt at Modell's .3 for $20 and I bought 6 pieces for him.So far we found what we wanted at retail store not outlet!
These days my post will come with some food photos for you to enjoy:)My mom gave me some basket cake "kuih bakul aka"nien gau''when I come back from Malaysia.I love my kuih bakul fried with yam aka taro and sweet potato.
It's come in vacuum pack and can last for one year without opening or leakage.The packaging look cool ,right?
Of course my dear hubby won't taste or try this kuih at all..Mishu don't really like it as well...coz it's not really sweet like candy!..I,myself"wallop" everything until finished!!.Now you know why I have spare tires!!lol!!
Note:I'm going away for few days visit 2 of my favourite blogger cum girlfriend aka kawan at their home:)I'm looking forward this trip for months .I will update once I come back.Sorry for not able to visit your blog:( just enjoy my kuih bakul aka "nien gau"!!
