Chinese New Year Countdown...10, 9, 8, 7, 6, ...

This year, there is no Day 30th for Month 12 in chinese calendar. Therefore, we will have our reunion dinner on 29th which is on this coming Saturday! CNY is just around the corner! He he..

Since I have this blog here, I would just record down what I did during the last week before CNY!

Day 22nd
Afternoon
Fried cashew nuts and keropok

Night:
Went shopping with my bf. We went to Satok and Everrise. Traffic jammed everywhere!

Day 23rd
Morning
Preparing the ingredients for ngo hiang.

Afternoon
Making tit-bits for u, u and u when u visit me during CNY. Erm it is the fried seaweed la. I put 2 pieces of seaweed O...if you are lucky, u might get the 3 pieces der.

Night
Went to padungan, walked along the street and tried out some of the bak kua, cookies and cakes offered. Some stalls even offered tissues for you to wipe ur oily fingers. The service is quite good! One thing that the stall owners have missed out is DRINKS. 'x' They should prepare mineral water so that we can test the sample betul betul. OR maybe they earn some commission from the drinks stalls???!! A surprise, since when KCH's businessmen have became so generous? Almost every stalls offer you 'sample', except May Flower and of course all the stalls that selling drinks. The cakes cut into tiny little pieces, the bak kua is obviously bigger pieces than last year and the cookies are in PERFECT shape. I still remember that the samples offered last year were erm so tiny that u can hardly have any taste when you put it into ur mouth or the cookies were erm something like they just picked up those that dropped onto the floor. I used to reject all the samples offered. Mama said do not eat anything offered by strangers. ahaha...Anyway, I tried some this year since the stalls owner kept persuading me.

I successfully walked pass the whole padungan street without accepting any samples,ermmm except for the fried sayur stall...i said i wanted to buy and the gal asked me to try.i said don want la..i oredi wanto buy. she said u just try la..see nice or not first.
