CNY 2012

I have been thinking of stopping writing blog and also that i have stop visiting blogs as i'm quite lazy to do updating and also i have been into facebook most of the time.

Recently, during a family gathering, one of my relative was telling me something which i will not mention here, makes me think of writing blog again.  Don't know, see how first.

Backdated my post to Chinese New Year 2012.

First day of Chinese New Year, went to my mum's side relative, normally every year she will cook for every visitors and we will eat lunch/dinner at her place.  I loves her wu xiang very much (i did not take picture of it) and before Chinese New Year, i have request from her for some extra to bring home to eat.

Normally, we will have a Lim's family gathering on the first day of Chinese New Year at my 大伯 house, but as my 大伯 and his wife was away to the States visiting my cousins (my 大伯 has 3 childrens, two daughter and 1 son), the eldest daughter and son has migrate to the States.  They only came back on the first day of Chinese New Year. So we had a gathering at my 三姑 house on the second day of Chinese New Year.

Every year, my 三姑  will prepare this dish and it was well receive by many of us.

And also not forgetting to 捞鱼生.

On the third day of Chinese New Year, went to my 舅舅 house and his wife prepare this home made lotong.

On the sixth day of Chinese New Year, went to my friend house in the afternoon for a gathering and she prepared 饺子 (loves her 饺子 very much).

Actually i have another gathering in the evening but i didn't go cos i wanted very much to go watch 狮城小肥肥郑盈盈 host getai.  Her so call "darling" 王伟良 was there to sing. 

Seventh day of Chinese, went in to Johor Bahru to find Catherine.  At first i was very worry about jam when coming back, but luckily there was no jam in the causeway.

Thirteen day of Chinese New Year, went to watch getai hosted by 盈盈 and 伟良.
