(I must get on with my posts even though this is the saddest CNY)
CNY eve dinner was with my family as per the previous 3 years.
2023 The first year I'd spent this day with my family since getting married. I was so happy heh.
2024: Eventful one as our 2 maids caught covid and then my father. Eventually managed to celebrate this day, yay.
2025: Normal one. :)
On to 2026 aka now. First the yee sang which my mum made from scratch.
Huat huat
Next the steamboat. Improved the menu based on previous year's experience - less fishballs and more other items! This time we had added shabu pork, cuttlefish, chicken on stick.
Eat eat chat chat
The kids were looking forward to gambling. My bro prepared the RM3 'seed money' as usual. SE lost everything haha.
Gamble gamble
If only hubby had been around, this time he could just have conveniently walked upstairs to his room at my parents' place. Instead of waiting for the night to be over as the other years in order to go home.
For me, I missed him a lot this night. Chatted to my aunt about him - helps me to be able to think back on words of understanding/support.
My sis's family had to go early to the airport and we forgot to take a photo.
Happy cny to you and your loved ones! May this year of the horse bring you everything you wish for! 💕
ReplyDeleteYour mom is superb 💪to make the yee sang from scratch. This year I haven't eaten any yee sang yet.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the links. Very nice to look back at your previous cny eve dinner with your parents since 2023. May you have many many more 🤞
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos to remember by in this post. I especially like your parents' house big side garden. Good decision to buy this house instead of a luxury condo unit without any garden.
ReplyDeleteYou are a strong person. You are right to continue recording your live so that you can read them again in future. Have a good 2026 ahead! 💕
