Family of Bears

Pendery’s World of Chiles and Spices

In 1870, DeWitt Clinton Pendery arrived in, then untamed, Fort Worth, Texas. He came a long way before he joined his established family business and began the heritage we enjoy today. D.W.C. developed great interest in regional Texas seasonings. By 1890, he was selling his own unique blends to cafes, hotels and citizens far and [...]

The bears are back from hibernation and we’ll be sharing with you tons of stuff that we’ve experienced during our time away! But before that, here’s a message from Principal Hayley. Principal Hayley Hotels and Conference Venues is a collection of 24 landmark city centre hotels and dedicated conference and training venues across the UK [...]

Sakae Teppanyaki: Soup-to spill-to

The bear and I are fine. We are blending well with the humans. The reason for the long disappearance is Teddybear’s fault. He got hungry one fine day and decided to eat the notebook together with the router. Sigh. Bears. Can’t live with them, can’t live without them. Note: Clearly I’m joking. It’s just one [...]

ASTONS Specialties: I expected more…

Now I’m confused… Teddybear is a bear isn’t he? If so, why does he fancy steak? Aren’t fishes the top of his menu? Oh well. I guess humanity has gotten the best of him after all; otherwise it’s probably his human friends. It was Nick’s last evening in Singapore before he returned to Canada the [...]

Gelatissimo: The forgotten (gelato) flavour

sabbybear — Sat, 10 Jan 2009 07:14:35 +0000

After having “the most satisfying” but “not the most delicious” meal, I had to my taste bud to something sweet. As we made our way back to the bear-mobile, parked at Shaw House, we “unintentionally” passed by Gelatissimo. And yes, I was allowed to pick one flavour from the wide selection – Teddybear’s treat! Gelatissimo’s [...]

Far East Plaza Chicken Rice: “not the most delicious but the most satisfying”

sabbybear — Wed, 07 Jan 2009 09:34:52 +0000

It’s no secret that the Teddybear is a huge fan of chicken rice. (Well, at least it’s no secret to me.) But that is also why it’s probably impossible to say exactly which stall is his favourite-favourite. Sometime back in December, after he came back from his little trip to France, Teddybear had his chicken [...]

Dinner is “on the bear”, “in a tupperware”?

sabbybear — Tue, 06 Jan 2009 00:08:06 +0000

This is so much easier to write about compared to the “picnic at Sentosa”. Trust me, I’m writing it. Hurhur. It’s the New Year, everyone’s talking about it. And as dreadful as it may be, after a long break from work (I had close to a week PAID off) even bears had to get back [...]

A new year. A new beginning. The same old Family of Bears!

The first entry was dated back in February 2008, close to a year ago. Initially when I started this blog, I was pretty determined to update regularly. Unfortunately, as time went by, the blog was soon left aside, untouched. Since it’s the start of 2009, a brand new year, and the family of bears still [...]

Hello world!

This is the first entry in this blog so it’s going to be brief. The sole purpose of the blog is to record down “adventures”, we the bears, are going to go through on a journey to becoming a “family”. As the days pass our bond tightens and slowly we become one. We bears stick [...]
