It was my first time celebrating the chinese new year with HL's family. It was my first time baking cookies over their place using the small oven as well. Remembering how my mom and I used to bake using such a small oven too and it consumed alot of time when we need to bake in large quantities. Thanks to my dad who bought my mom a bigger oven 3 years ago. We had such an enjoyable time baking nice cookies and cakes then.
It was my first time doing a big plate of white carrot cake during the eve of cny without my mom around. It was a success though :). Thanks to my mom who taught me all these years.
Well, this year is abit different. Having to run here and there in both houses to help up to do some chores. I'm worried my mom would be too tired when I'm not around to help her out. Thank God my little sister is there for her to lessen her burden.
I had so much good food. Talking about steamboat and lots of dishes spread out on the table and a bottle of white wine with little gold leaves. It was a good wine though.
Will post up more photos later. Going to Muar soon to visit HL's grandparents and relatives.
Wishing everybody a very Ox-picious Chinese New Year.

Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right!
2008 has just gone by with just a glimpse and now 2009 has come by. I have a whole list of new year resolution which I hope to get it done one by one throughout this 365 days.
First and foremost, I would like to thank from the bottom of my heart to all my family members, relatives and my dearest friends who has been with me. Life is so much meaningful with you guys around. A toast to all!
Let's see, the top most priority in my list for this year are listed below:
1) House renovation
2) Improve myself to bake and cook better
3) Start on a 'tabung duit' and chip in a minimum RM200 per month
4) A new kitchen aid machine
5) A new mobile phone (my current one seems unpresentable)
6) Yoga classes (although I miss my body pump and body combat)
7) Perm my hair
Wishing everybody to hang on to the new year though I know the economy is rather bad. I'm sure we will be able to pull it through with proper money-money planning. Life still goes on. We gotta 'move it move it'.
Cheers!
