Another food fiesta!

It had been a hectic week with heavy traffic on the road and big crowd in the supermarket as it was chinese New Year week. I did my usual routine,sending and fetching my girl and attended to some paintings that needed to be painted urgently. One of it was another cutlery box, from a friend of my sister who preffered red and some bright color roses. It's quite a challenge to me as I always did pastel. Whooh! what a relief when she finally text me that she loved the painting. Dont mention it, Dtn Faezah, it's my pleasure.





Fortunately, I managed to finish painting on time as my family from Ipoh wanted to have tea at my house on saturday. It has been always my habit to clear the mess from the previous project before I can even start to cook.

The Hi-tea was fixed after they watched Afc channel, they requested Mousaka and chocolate bannana cake. Naturally, I added some more varieties ..carrot cake, tortilla, and wanton Ho meehoon. For I guessed they must be hungry and would skipped lunch.
My sister Teh, her hubby and daughter Izian, and aunty Enda, cousin Chuwa, Anis, her hubby and kids came around 3 pm. We were remarkably loud, when we were among ourselves *bunyi riuh rendah sekampong, kalau tak tau, orang ingat bergaduh* especially cousin Chuwa who 's the loudiest of all. You never know who listened and who talked and did not take turn..everyone wanted to tell their side of the stories. But somehow, we understood each other very well and migrated from one topic to another.

The interesting part was, time to say goodbye, we smooched and kissed but still talking like never ending episode. It continued about 10 minutes and so. .then walking towards the car, took another 5 minutes???

The hasle from the cooking, laughing and chatting changed me from energetic, vociferous back to a lifeless being and with so many aches and pains.. soon after they drove off. *Catching my breath* According to my hubby, that's normal!!
The get-together will make us closer. That's what we want in a family!!!
