Cheena New Year

Haha I guess I have one of the most carefree Cheena new years living in a Christian family. I can enjoy all the benefits of Chinese new year without adhereing to all the inane regulations like

avoiding books, avoiding medicine, avoiding brooms, avoiding blacks(that didn't come out right).

Yays! I had quite alot of fun with the PM gang on our celebration, here are some pics,(photo courstesy of our dear ducky) the Yu Sheng that we had preparing,still preparing.....brown gold!simply having funShao Long, I can see into your nostrils.....going after the "ah beng" lookhaha, finally a serious fun picture, wait did that make sense?Lao Hei!! usually people would be shouting crap about good fortune, but we sounded like a crappy church choir shouting HALELUYA!HALELUYA!! haha good fun STEAMBOAT!!!!! believe it or not, all the ingredients we bought amounted only to around $29 which is around the price of Pizza hut delivery. who says you can't have cheap and good steamboat?I have NO IDEA why ben took this photo and of course, with new year comes, WINE WINE WINE!!!!!! haha dun worry I didnt get drunk and am not intending to get drunk. but I like wine, it runs in my family, although I'm only 16 haha, a toast to the new year!!!well that's all the pics of the PM Cheena new year celebration.

after that I had another Cheena New Year Celebration dinner, this time with my family. photo courtesy of my bro all the dishes you see are made by my mom

This Yu Sheng was purchased from Sushi Tei and it was goooooooooooood

Fish maw & Abalone soup!!! yum! This is not steamboat but a dish call bhen chai. also by my mom, it was AWESOME!
The Yusheng ready to be mixed why do I look so weird? just add gold! Lastly, we had Baked Alaska for dessert, It tasted like a piece of sweet cloud, drooool... we ended with some healthy fruits after that oh-so-sinful dinner.

haha that was more or less my new year celebration besides the ang pao and visitation. Me and my big mouth promised Joseph that I'd be treating him plus the PM gang to dinner if I collected more than $1000 worth of ang pao, and then it came true, oh well. treating them this friday, so annoying. haha HAPPY CHEENA NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!!

Mum's Cuisine:D

YAY! I dun like to boast but my mom's cooking is just the best:D Yesterday she served us prawn and mango salad and chicken pastrami. Actually, she substituted the original ingredients. The two dishes were christmas meals and were supposed to be lobster and mango salad and turkey pastrami, but whatever. As long as they taste good I dun bother.

ARHH!!! my aunt's arm is in this picture! Anyways it's quite obvious that this is the prawn & mango saladThe Chicken Pastrami (dun ask me what pastrami is, I dun hav a clue)

mouthwatering:D? haha food cooked(properly) at home is food at it's best. I thank God for such a wonderful mom as mine:D
