Farewell Dinner for Annie

 5 scrumptious dishes

my girl, my mum, Annie and another Annie..

My friend Annie came back from UK as her mum was not well. She has been with her mum for almost two months and she's going back soon.

Last weekend when I was in KL, I told my friend that we had to have a farewell dinner for Annie. So I suggested to my friend in Taiping who was very helpful in arranging this dinner.

The dinner was confirmed at 5pm as I asked for it. I wouldn't like to drive late in the evening.

This afternoon, I started my journey at 2.40pm and I reached my mum's place at 3.25pm. Rested for a short while and we went to find the place for our dinner.

We went to buy some kuih for my girl before we went to the restaurant. Waited for a short while before all my six friends came. We had a scrumptious meal.

At 7pm, we left the place. Took my mum home and I started my journey back to Ipoh at 7.30pm. I should reach Ipoh at 8.20pm. But due to the the hectic jam, I reached home at 9.30pm!

Anyway, it has been a nice farewell for my dear friend, Annie.

    So nice of you to suggest this farewell dinner for your friend, Annie. Is her mother better now since she feels comfortable enough with her mother's wellbeing to go back to UK?

Twin bananas

Image
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..
