Wed 6Feb08: Pre-CNY Dinner

We’ve come up with the decision to organize a small gathering tonight to substitute the pre-CNY dinner that we usually had with our own family back home. We’ve been so busy in the preparation as we were expecting around 10-11 people to attend. The preparation started from the previous night, where we had to mince the pork meat by ourselves with a lousy chopper, marinade with some sauces (not telling ;p) and some vegetables like carrot and finely-sliced cabbage.




Meei Yunn, our main chef.
Give applause to her for her hardwork!







Me and Carol are making dumplings
(I was having a bad hair day!)


Being not used to organize this kinda gathering, we started the dinner 1.5 hours later than the planned time, even though we’ve been spending the whole day preparing the food. The last-minute jobs are too much to handle, not to mention the unexpected errors or failures occurred. But, anyway, we still make it though! Here are some of the ‘very few’ pictures taken on that night…

JQ brought 'lap-chiong' from Malaysia and so she cooked the rice with it (no wonder her luggage was so huge and overweight) =p
