Chinese New Year '12

It's the time of the year again! A time to eat, visit, eat, visit, ... , eat visit. Not too much of the CNY buzz this year. I guess it's probably due to the shorter CNY holidays. Anyway, this CNY is really just about eating. Ate reunion dinner on Sunday. Visited most of relatives on Monday, which meant snacking (impossible amounts of CNY goodies) all the way. So much so that I sort of skipped breakfast and lunch all together. Haha. Great-grandpa's anniversary today. So coincidental coz my great grandpa passed away then. But it's good in the sense that everyone will remember and will have the time to gather together to pray and munch on good food. So it was family gathering as usual at my house. Home-cooked buffet for breakfast and lunch. Really remarkable effort by my mum and maid to whip up all the food for like 30 people.. and they're all damn AWESOMELY YUMMY! Bet I gained at least a pound or more from just that meal. Haha.

Anyway, food aside, today's the first time I got to see my nephew since he was born 2 months ago! DAMN CUTE OMG. Haha.


The innocence of a child. All he need to worry about is eating and sleeping. Damn envious of him. Haha. Oh another boy to the family. My entire generation were all boys, and it looks like the next one's gonna be all boys again. Haha.

Anyway more food coming up. Tomorrow's gonna be another home-cooked, buffet-styled family dinner with all my maternal relatives. After which, a short break, before more food on Saturday and Sunday! Looks like I have to exercise a lot harder once all the festivities are over. =P
