Family reunion-foods-joy-laughter-eat till stomach is full-what a great week
The Lunar Year is celebrated by all the Chinese in Malaysia. Now, with the concept of 1 Malaysia, everyone regardless of races celebrate the new year by visiting families back in kampung or in the city. Family reunion dinner is the most important where everyone will go back home and have a feast together with the family.
We worked in the morning in the shop and closed early in the noon. Then, we went back home to prepare dinner. :D My father's customers will always asked for the same thing : 'Ada limau ke?' Never ending questions. Then, we will always say, 'belum celebrate lagi..next week k'. :D
This year, we received 3 hampers and quite a number of boxes of mandarin oranges. All were given by my parents and brother's suppliers. :D So, we actually saved up a bit and no need to get mandarin oranges for all the customers. My mum, sister-in-law, my nephew and I had a fun time opening all the hampers. :D This year my brother became the chef of the house with the help of my sister and mum. I was playing with my little nephew. hehe.. But, I have began to developed interests for cooking. Due to my laziness, I still rarely cook.
