My good friend Desiree, was doing her rounds as a volunteer docent so I decided to go on her guided tour as I haven&#8217;t stepped foot into the SAM for about a year. Oh, when I was buying my ticket to enter the museum, the lady was going to give me a child ticket &#8211; I thanked her for thinking that I could still pass off as someone who could still be qualified to buy a child ticket. Haha.<br \/>\nWhile there, I viewed artworks by Southeast Asian and local artists. There was also a special exhibit on Swedish-designed products like furniture (e.g. IKEA), lights, bags and other interesting lifestyle products that are extremely functional but also aesthetically pleasing. Very interesting products and designs&#8230;.the Swedes are such geniuses!<br \/>\nAfter viewing the exhibits, we went to have a very leisurely lunch at Olio Dome cafe which is in the museum. I had a chicken &#038; mushroom pie and then a yummy apple pie for dessert. I&#8217;m a sucker for pies, both savoury and sweet ones.<br \/>\nAnyway, here are a couple of pics I took at the art museum.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/photos8.flickr.com\/11972866_ac7723c4e2.jpg\" width=\"350\" height=\"263\" alt=\"art museum 3\" border=\"0\"\/><\/a><br \/>\nA black and white shot of the corridor to the left of the museum&#8217;s entrance<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/photos11.flickr.com\/11972865_3d51e7e88a.jpg\" width=\"263\" height=\"350\" alt=\"art museum 2\" border=\"0\"\/><\/a><br \/>\nA black and white shot of the corridor to the right of the museum&#8217;s entrance<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/photos7.flickr.com\/11972864_b209f8d974.jpg\" width=\"350\" height=\"263\" alt=\"Art museum 1\" border=\"0\"\/><\/a><br \/>\nOne of two courtyards within the museum which used to be the former  premises of the boys&#8217; school St. Joseph Institution.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/photos6.flickr.com\/11972141_f52447e264.jpg\" width=\"350\" height=\"263\" alt=\"Chicken Pie\" border=\"0\"\/><\/a><br \/>\nMy chicken &#038; mushroom pie<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/photos8.flickr.com\/11972142_3703203adf.jpg\" width=\"350\" height=\"263\" alt=\"Apple Pie\" border=\"0\"\/><\/a><br \/>\nNothing like hot apple pie accompanied by a scoop of old-fashioned vanilla ice-cream!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Decided to go arty-farty with a trip to the Singapore Art Museum (SAM)yesterday.
