31st January, 2009 - It's Saturday at last, the day I had my CNY open house, just for my high school friends. With merely 1.5 hours to go since I reached home from Tg. Sepat, tired as I was, I was in high spirit as I have been looking forward to catch up with these bunch of close friends together with their lovely children :-)
Delegation of duty was the way to go : Kakak to help in the kitchen and prepare 2 dishes, Jasmine to cut fruits, Dash to set the table, prepare drinks and arrange CNY cookies whereas Bob to arrange the serviettes ... and me, just hang around? Of course not ! Ha ha ... I picked up Jelly-O cake from Aroma Platter, pick out the longan jelly from the moulds, made tuna sandwiches and arrange them nicely on plates, cover them with cling-on wraps and chill them in the fridge.
As it turned out, the food was just nice, enough to feed the guests ... the kids all love the spaghetti, many of whom had 2nd and 3rd helpings :-) Ended with pots of green tea while nibbling away at the cookies, all seated at the living hall ... on the carpet ! It was a good hour of reminiscing over those memorable high school days as well as recent happenings in our lives ... hmm ... a few more years, would we still make it a point to gather? I would think so !
