Can't Be Bothered

I snapped this pic of Koka last nite at about 1am...but she has a "I can't be bothered with you" look. Cute nonetheless! :)))

New Year Meal (开年饭)!

It's our family tradition to dine together on the 1st day of new year, either a luncheon or dinner. ^.^ As we had Faith's 1st month celebration to attend, we did dinner instead. ;) We took mom & dad to Imperial Treasure Steamboat Restaurant for hotpot! :D

Lin & I were thrilled Imperial Treasure Steamboat Restaurant serves Hong Kong style hotpot! We do hotpot dinner in HK everytime we visit the place. Now we can enjoy similiar HK style hotpot in Singapore too! :D

We need to create our own dip from an assortment of codiments. :)

What's hotpot without marbled beef & kurobuta pork slices? ^.*

We love the fresh shrimps & especially the deep fried fish skin. Just dip the deep fried fish skin in the hotpot, let it absorb some soupy goodness and yummmmmm.... :)

The assortment of handmade shrimp, cuttlefish, meat & fish balls ooze freshness & are very Q.

Our choice of dumplings are shrimp wontons, shrimp dumplings & chive dumplings (unfortunately they were sold out  :~ ( ) Oh well, we'll have better luck the next time. ;)

Of course we did have some healthier options. :) Tofu, Tianjin cabbage, winter melon & daikon. :D

We had some noodie (Xisi Fen & Tung Fen) to complete our meal. :)

What a great way to start our new year!

Faith's 1st Month Old Celebration :)

We started 2011 with Faith's 1st month old celebration! :) She's beautifully dressed in pink! I bought her a dramatic fucshia floral headpiece & cute Mary Jane socks with rosettes and made her a tutu out of organza ribbons. ^.* Don't you love her attire? Here's a pic of her & her mommy, Grace!

Faith's brother, Jarius isn't interested in toy car. :( Toy camera works for him much better! ;) He's thrilled playing peek-a-boo with me??? Lol! :)))

Grace's babies. ^.*

A Sizzling Hot 31 Dec 2010 Dinner

We have passed the age of squeezing with the crowd to ursher in the new year and opted instead for a sizzling hot dinner with family. ;) The rain reduced to light drizzle by later afternoon, making it perfect for a BBQ session. ;)

I cracked my head over what to prepare for BBQ and here's what I came out with:

Yahui was the "assigned" chef with Charlotte as her assistant!

The spread on the grill smellt gorgeous!!!

We love the awesome company of our cousins! :D It's indeed God's blessings for us to be family & so closely knit. ^.^

Dear Koka attempted to "steal" our food, abeit unsuccessful! Lol! :))))

She has to settle for her own boiled chicken meat! :D Happy New Year! ^.*
