​A Quiet Visit to the Live Turtle Museum: Finding Comfort in Grief

Live Turtle Museum at 11 Chencharu Close The Gentle Motivation Behind the Visit The Live Turtle Museum reopened at its new location on August 23, 2026. By a heartbreaking coincidence, that very same week, I lost my beloved baby of 26 years . Just a week later, while still deep in grief, I decided to make the trip. Being just a short bus ride from my house in Yishun, it felt close enough to reach out and a touch of familiar comfort. But stepping inside brought a flood of conflicting emotions. I found myself looking at all these gentle creatures living, breathing, and thriving, while my own one and only was gone forever. It sparked a strange, heavy mix of feelings that I hope people can pardon, as grief naturally makes the heart process things in complex ways. Tucked next to HomeTeamNS Khatib and surrounded by the ongoing construction of upcoming BTOs, the site carries a sense that it may not be their permanent home for long.

[RECIPE] Egg Mayo Sandwich


I love Egg Mayo Sandwich. The last time I made was way before I got married. You know, you hang around with colleagues who are mummies, you get lots of tips on cooking, group buy lobangs and so on. That's how I know how to make Egg Mayo. Grateful for that bunch of ladies.

Used to buy from outside too when on the go but find it quite expensive for 2 slices of stuffed bread cut into half, to make it look huge or something. This is how they earn. What to do, right? So now I decided to make them again because I'm bored with hashbrown sandwich.

Ingredients:
- 3 hardboiled eggs, dice or mash
- 1-2 tbsp of Mayonnaise
- Dash of salt and pepper
- Lettuce and/or cucumber for a crunch

Method:
1) In a pot of boiling water, put in the eggs and cooked for 15 mins.
2) Once done, go through cold water before peeling the shells away.
3) On the cutting board, halve the eggs and dice the white and yolk.
4) Put the diced eggs in a box and add in mayonnaise to mix well.
5) So long as the mayonnaise is enough to cover the eggs, you don't need to add more.
6) Add salt (sparingly) and pepper to taste.
7) Serve with lettuce and cucumber after spreading the Egg Mayo on bread.
8) Chill the remaining for next day consumption.

The serving should last about 3-4 breakfasts.
But that is when you use 1 layer (2 slices of bread) each breakfast.

Bon Appetit.
