Family CNY Reunion Dinner

It is a yearly affair that we will have our CNY reunion dinner at our Gujie’s place and the young generations will be the ones who does the preparation while the elders take their rest. This year, we are happy to welcome cousin’s church friend, Charlie who is here alone during this festive.

We prepared all the ingredients and brought over to her place and started to prepare for the dinner.

Florence prepared the Yusheng nicely and recited those nice meanings of each ingredients. We gathered everyone and then we started tossing and wishing everyone well wishes. The kids were happy to join as this would be the time to get messy without any scolding from the parents… hahahahaha 
After the Lo Hei, we cleaned up and prepared for our main dinner – Steamboat. This has been our tradition for our CNY reunion dinner since we were kids. I remembered sitting in the 2nd hall with my cousins while the elders were at the main dinning hall during those days.

Dinner was great and it was a great time chatting with the family members and updating each other on what has been happening in our own lifestyle. This is one good opportunity for the family to gather though we tired to create other opportunities to meet up.

After dinner, we sat around and enjoyed the ‘kids’ friendly tiramisu I made and I was happy that they both kids & adults were enjoying it. Charlie was so tied up entertaining the kids and they had so much fun hanging out with him. 
Gong Xi Fa Cai everyone and wishing one everyone a prosperous 2018!
