My favourite month of the year.

This is my first chinese new year away from home. I really missed my families and frens back home. Looking on the bright side, is a brand new experience. I organized a steamboat reunion dinner at Jehan's house for the eight of us.

The Eight



we have steam boat and bought a LOT of food from both oriental and IGA.. fish and meat balls, fish tofu, different kinds of meat, vegetables, prawns, etc and stuffed ourselves with these food and had a good reunion dinner anyway.

Food Food


A table full of food. There are more in the kitchen. Guess i bought too much.

The soup


My housemate made the soup first thing in the morning, with potatoes, carrots, onions and chicken stalk cubes and boiled for 9 hours. therefore it tasted supper yummy.

dessert of the day

we believed that we should have chinese stuffs so we bought rice ball "tang yuan".
guess wat the guys did??? they have it with ice-creams... awww..... I couldn't imgaine the taste. so please spare an auntie like me, i will just have plain rice balls instead.

After dinner, we were so full that we began to take pictures of ourselves with funny gestures.

erm... should i say only donald with his funny gestures???
