Family Reunion Lunch @ 2009

Gong Xi Fa Cai!



Happy Chinese New Year!
Wishing all of you to have a great OX year!
Had a great family reunion lunch yesterday afternoon. Mom prepared lots of dishes - chicken, duck, roasted pork, abalone soup, veggies... Dear did not join us for reunion lunch this year because he needed to work. He dropped by to send hamper only, and headed to work after that.
CNY - Eat , eat and eat only. I did not drink any plain water yesterday. I drink soft drinks, pineapple juice and chinese tea only. With all the nice beverages, i totally forgot about plain water! I know this is very bad, but I will try to remind myself to drink more plain water.
I also had reunion dinner with my dear. He reached home around 11.30pm yesterday, 30minutes before "chor yat". We had steamboat, auntie prepares steamboat every year for reunion dinner. I love the soup that she prepares. Taste 'sweet'.
After dinner, it was Ang Paos time!!! No, we did not give, but we got ang paos from his parents. lol
Wishing all of u Happy Chinese New Year!
May all your dreams come true!
