The New Year is around the corner


Christmas is over. My Christmas day, like every single year, is characterized by eating and drinking (I don't drink alcohol, mind you). My mouth and my stomach definitely enjoyed that. In the afternoon, I went to mum's friend's house for Christmas party. There was roast chicken, pasta, mashed potato, salads, cendol and of course, roast turkey!! Food galore!! Later in the night, it was my family's turn to host a Christmas dinner for our relatives. So, once again, my stomach was treated to another feast. And I personally drank a bottle of ginger beer, a bottle of root beer and a bottle of sarsi, all in one night!! My chances of getting diabetes increased tenfold after last night.

This 'house' is made of ginger bread!! Took this at my mum's friend's Christmas party.

Since Christmas is over, the new year is edging even closer now. There will be the usual flurry about New Year resolutions, New Year countdowns, etc. For me, its probably time for a quiet reflection on a year that has been. New school, new people, more friends, that pretty much sums up my 2009. I hope that next year will even be better than this year.



On a different note, I could not resist taking this picture while grocery shopping yesterday. Why? Because this really reminds me of Pou Hung Nguong!!! How to make Pou? Just buy the Instant Pau Flour powder and add hot water!!
