Our 1st Day Of The Year Of The Rabbit

We greeted the year of the Rabbit by watching several spectacular fireworks displays let out from the KLCC area and Le Meridien Hotel area from the 5th floor of our condo unit at 12 midnight. Baby who was asleep was jolted up from her sleep by the continuous thunderous noise from the fireworks and crying.

This morning, my mil cooked a big pot of vegetarian fried vermicelli and ‘jai’ (vegetarian dish made up of Chinese cabbage, cloud ear fungus, mushrooms, bamboo shoots, glass noodles and red fermented tofu paste. It has been our custom to go vegetarian for half a day on the 1st day of the CNY. Alan Yun, our long-time friend (local movie star, commercial star and model) joined us for lunch.

After lunch, we went across our condo to Alan Yun’s house to play firecrackers. When Baby heard daddy telling us that we were going to play firecrackers, she exclaimed with surprise and said “but it’s not dark yet?!!” LOL, smart girl. Yup, we know it’s not dark yet but we wanted Esther (Alan’s niece) to play with our girls as she had to leave soon. Though Esther had only just met our girls, they hit it off really well and she was in tears when we had to say good bye.  See how protective Esther (who’s 4yo+) was over Baby when the firecrackers was let off.
