Birthday Party and farewell gathering

Here's what we had for our birthday party cum farewell gathering..

 My Indian worker, Saras cooked her speciality ie nasi goreng. 
Eggs..on the house.

 ML bought two cans of longan in syrup and I brought the ice cubes from my home.

 JC made sandwiches for us..

 The birthday girl fried the wanton..

 and cooked spicy fish balls.

 
 My Malay staff, Mariah cooked her rendang ayam. 
I sponsored the potatoes and a chicken.

 KW bought fresh soya beans from her area.
 
 Lim bought these dodol and heong piah from Melaka.

 He also ordered tarts for us.

Mariah fried the sotong keropok for us. 
The keropok was given to me by Small Kucing.



So much about the food. Now the time to celebrate..
 Three of us shared to buy this chocolate moist blueberry cake for the birthday girl.

 I wrapped a gift and the boss presented it to Lim who is going off soon.

 
 These are what Lim got from me.

This special seashell chocolates (Pralines Superieurs) from UK 
is meant for the birthday girl 
as she loves chocolates.


Happy Birthday, SL and all the best to Lim.

Twin bananas

Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
