Good morning, dear friends π
Gong Xi Fa Cai, Kong Hei Fatt Choy and Keong Hee Huat Chai to all of you! Hehe, it has been days since I wrote here and it has been a really hectic last 5 days with all the cleaning, shopping, cooking and then visiting of relatives …… and it took me another 2 days to recover from it all! Good news is this year, I did not gain weight but lost some compared to previous years’ CNY period because of that! π
Anyway, here are the pictures that my children took for me while I was cooking the 8 dishes for my Family Reunion Dinner. The recipes will follow tomorrow

hey choesf π how are you dear? The photos are very beautiful – the meal looks scrumptious! Your children did a fantastic job with the photos, they really are very good.
I hope you are all having a wonderful time celebrating. It sounds like so much fun π What is the next big banquet you are cooking? Or is the Reunion dinner the main event in the festivities?
With wishes for love and happiness

Good morning, dear yen and dear sweetrosie π
Thank you for your lovely comments….I wanted to post the recipes yesterday but I came down with a sorethroat and cold, and I slept most of the day – hehe, I guess I “ran out of battery” after the cleaning, baking and then feasting! π π
I will start posting the recipes today….
The next banquet is on this coming Thursday midnight for prayers to the God of Heaven or “Pai Ti Kong” in Hokkien (err…actually I used to offer many dishes in the prayers when I was working – we would even have a whole roasted pig)…and I will be making my own “Roast Pork” or “Siew Yoke” for prayers for the first time and I will post some pictures and recipes here.
Take care and have a nice day! School was off from last week 6 Feb until yesterday, and today, we are back to the grind again, fetching my kids to and from school!
With peace and joy,
choesf π
