waking up to a cold christmas late morning (courtesy of the powerful aircon in my bro's room!) and feeling all ready to play dress up, i decided to put on mascara for probably the first time in 2007 haha... i don on a simple mango almost lime-green top with jeans and my new antique-blue coloured heels and found a pair of black and another electric blue shimmering plastic ear-rings which paired up well without anyone ever knowing that they are not a pair :)... i was looking forward to seeing granny and my cousins.
i forgot my camera but joan sumomo my cousin was happily clicking away which i am sure the pictures will turn up in facebook. we walked in to the usual : my aunties on the mahjong table, a big spread of buffet, well-stocked up fridge and my cousins in the living room all on the floor playing our favourite board game TABOO :). (my aunt description of "parachute" = umbrella in the sky!...haha...)... it was a warm familiar scene for me and to see my granny still recognising our faces. she looked tiny but well... did i mention she has the softest skin in the world? :) she does!
we didn't stay long as we had another party at Mr & Mrs M :). hubby and i went home to collect the drinks, presents and "the" roast pork. i OD on the salt i must say sorry about that guys! haha... it was an attempt to make crackling for our english boys who missed their english food. i promise to use less salt next round :)... ammes' healthy choice: tofu was excellent, then there was the yummy duck (not sure who bought it but it was delicious!) and pototoes from lynn, the polar puffs and ooooh swiss rolls (jackie love) and our favourite cheese cake (from Mr n Mrs lee and Master reuben and daniel :)...)...
Everyone loves presents! we were all excited (or probably more excited) about opening presents like the 3 year old with us haha.. here's the slide show from the evening party...
