I’m not alone this CNY thanks to
my self-proclaimed extended family, the Liew
klan! *laugh* My best friend Jamie
and her family were so kind as to invite me over for their CNY eve reunion dinner with the best home cooked food in town! Filled
with fresh seafood and other goodies, Aunty
Pat’s (Jamie’s mum) yee sang is the ultimate best of the
best. *smile* In fact it was the highlight of my week! Hehe.
For those who didn't know, yee sang is actually an appetizer served during CNY to raise the 'good luck' for the new year. It is a tradition for families and friends gather around the table and on cue, proceed to
toss the ingredients of this dish into the air with chopsticks while saying auspicious wishes out loud to mark the start of a
prosperous new year. The higher you toss, the
greater your fortune! *wink*

As usual, it’s THIS time of the
year which I pig out like there’s no tomorrow. And hey, you can’t blame me for
that because how could you possibly say no to food like this?! *laugh*

Oh and for those who made time to

a very big THANK YOU. You definitely made my week. *smile*
