In addition to visiting our own relatives in every lunar new year celebration, this year saw us spending time with Christine and her family and soak in the bonding. We were told that she spent days preparing the pie-tee cups and cooked up a storm by preparing the ingredients so it was something very special in addition to the traditional Lo Hei!
Look at the jelly fish symbolises "Nian Nian You Yu" - literally translate to prosperity year after year and it certainly looks too pretty to eat isn't it. Hey, Christine served us lemon grass drink and I think she is fantastic going all out to prepare something special for all her guests. We had enjoyed ourselves and the opportunity to get to know her family members. The kids were having fun playing 'hide n seek' coz this is such a big house *phew* - amazing how she keeps it so clean and neat.
Until then, Gong Xi Fatt Cai Folks! May the Year of the Dog brings much joy and prosperity to all of you - :D
