It’s the time of the year again. I wouldn’t say this year is much different from the last. We are using the same decoration stuff from last year. At least I believe we don’t need to buy those every year. Save trees therefore save the earth, that kind of excuse you know. But the problem with recycling deco materials is they get shabbier each year. And they tend to be missing some parts and have left over tapes all over them. So what I usually do is I sort out the good from the bad. The bad ones, I simply throw them away. The good ones, up they go all over the walls of our house. Well, don’t think that we have tons of decorations. We don’t. We like to keep things simple. The most important thing is not the decoration itself, it’s the cleanliness of the house.
We had many gifts from friends and relatives today and one of the memorable ones is this cake that we got from one of mum’s customer.
I think the 3D effect is pretty cool. And actually, we don’t really know what to do with the cake since it doesn’t seem suitable to be served tomorrow. We usually serve Malay cakes which I think is more convenient and less of a mess. This cake that you see is a fresh cream cake like the ones we have for our birthdays. So I think I’ll just have a piece later ;)
Today is Chinese New Year’s eve so mum and dad cooked up something special for us all. Grandma was with us as well so all the more reason to celebrate. But
Tomorrow, I’m sure, is going to be a busy day for me. But to prepare, we laid out some food on the table. We’re so lazy that we just put everything as they are and didn’t bother transferring them to little containers. My uncle came yesterday and he brought us some new year treats. And I only realized he got us a big bag of garlic bread. Want some for CNY?
Here I would like to wish you all a Happy Chinese New Year!
Xin Nian Kuai Le,
Wan Shi Ru Yi,
Shen Ti Jian Khang!
