Silent Night

Many years back, we used to attend midnight mass on Christmas Eve but we have stopped attending since the birth of Faith. Instead, we attend Christmas Day mass for midnight mass will be too tiring for both of us and little Faith. This year, hubby took leave and came to fetch me after work (half day) and we went marketing for tonight’s dinner after our lunch.

We decided to have some simple dinner at home as we wanted to dine outside initially but we assumed it will be overcrowded. I prepared dinner and since it is Christmas, I made western instead of Chinese cuisine. Starters were mushroom soup and salads. Mains will be pan fried salmon for mum and grilled chicken thigh for us. Faith had her dinner prepared by my mum but she did share my mashed potato and soup. We rounded up the dinner with a sliced of chocolate cake from Awfully Chocolate.
After dinner, we drove down Orchard Road to check out the Christmas lightings and driving pass town was really painful as there were so many cars and in actual fact, we were stuck in a jam instead of enjoying the lights. It was silly just to drive through Orchard Road but at least we fulfilled our promise to little Faith who wanted to see the Christmas lightings.
On our way back home, we stopped by at Selegie to buy our favourite beancurd which was somehow a consolation… super YUMS!
