Chinese New Year 2012

it’s the first chinese new year that we had together sine we got married.

for me, there’s nothing much other than to get ang pau (oh wait, that was before i get married. now i dread it!), eat till you get sick, meet up with family members and also small time gamble. haha!

other than the fact i’m married now (and i have to clean up the house), CNY will always be the same. as always, i will not be able to have reunion dinner with other family members as i will have errand to do on the eve.

this year, we decided to cook a grand lunch all by ourselves.

yes, the portion above is only for two of us!

‘loh hon zai’ (will never forget the chinese cabbage!), oatmeal prawns, steamed salmon, ‘gu lou’ pork and lotus root + peanut soup!

the dishes above taste great! not bad at all as it was the first time fatpig cook the dishes.

it’s a good start for the water dragon year!

and also, i wish everyone HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR! HAVE A GOOD YEAR AHEAD!

14.1.12 - where is my ring?!

MV PPJ 3926_KEL0059-1
it's a sad day for fat pig coz her wedding ring was lost in Tesco (of all place) when she was choosing chinese cabbage to cook during the eve of Chinese New Year...
we did went back to find the ring. but it was akin to finding needle in a haystack. only in this case it is finding a ring in a huge basket of chinese cabbage!
but oh well, it's time to save a small portion of money for a new wedding ring! Ouch!
