Happy New year!

Its the 5th day of CNY n I hope everyone had a wonderful CNY celebration. Gong Xi! Gong Xi!

My 3-4 days of new year celebration was spectacular. As usual, there were lots of Hainanese meaty stuff for reunion dinners (my fav chicken soup), nice lo heis, ang pows collection n of course me polishing off pineapples tarts on hm visits. (Yummy!)
Fortunately, it was not as bad n boring as I thought initially.

The good thing abt being the youngest kid n CNY is to be able to loot all the yummy cookies n snacks in house visits. It is a respect not to reject any goodies serve by ur elders n ur hosts r pretty happy to u eat watever they serve. In short, its ok to loot/polish off ppl's house supply of goodies during CNY. On top of that, u get a wonderful red packet of cash as blessings. Woo hoo!

The result of my festive gorging is a bad cold n sore throat. I sound like Kermit the frog n managed to increase the sales of Kleenex tissues due to the endless sneezing n blowing of mustard-like nasal fluid. (Hey, I'm feeling happy cos I had a wonderful time eating this year.)

Got to go folks! Enjoy the remaining 10 days of CNY!

A Gd Meal

I love today's dinner. Sal, Val n I went to the Bugis steamboat outlet for dinner... As usual, I was busy force feeding the gals by dumping food into their bowls, whether they wanted the food or not.

Haaa! Hey, Xuan is a gd dinner host. My specialization is in Steamboat Force Feeding, by endlessly serving food to anyone on the same dining table.

We had lots of beef n this time round, I'm in love wif the tom yam soup. Yummy! It was lots of fun but of cos there were some industrial accident involving a rolling fishball, suicide prawn n a fallen chicken. Oh.. I was treated a generous dose of lychee syrup foot wash by some dumb girl who hav no idea of the proper use of the water dispensary. Dumb.

Anyway, this is one of the best dinners for the start of 2007, including one yesterday. Seriously, I wan to enjoy all my dinners b4 Chinese New Year.

One last thing... I hope all the crabs n beef n tom yam will not make me visit the doctor again. (Glup!)
