We spent our Christmas Eve morning doing last minute shopping for gifts…. again.  The hubs brought us to the Nike shop and bought everyone a pair of Nike shoes for Christmas 😀
In the afternoon, my VVIP guests from Ipoh and Singapore arrived!
Dinner was at our favorite neighborhood Chinese restaurant – Seng Kee Kitchen.
We had fried whole stuffed egg plant with fish paste, fried milk butter prawns with curry leaves…
Sambal with petai aka stinky beans. Â While I enjoy eating petai, I HATE the aftermath the next morning, don’t you? The stinky breath and the stench from the toilet activity, GAWD, such a turn-off eh?
Steamed kampung chicken…
Lip-smacking ‘char siew’ – the best in the world!
Steamed fish…
After dinner, we went home to have some Chrismassy desserts and the adults had wine. Â Our Christmas cake was a very delectable jackfruit cake with generous amounts of fresh jackfruit. We loved it.
Gingerbreadman for the kids…
My beloved parents with Alycia, their much-loved first grandchild. Â Alycia received ang pows from her koong koong and granny as belated birthday gift.
And then everyone opened their Christmas gifts.  We bought a smaller Christmas tree this year as the hubs had been busy with work and didn’t have the time to fish out our old Christmas tree that he had kept in his office.
I am typing this post in my home sweet home in the land of pomeloes and crunchy bean sprouts! We got back yesterday and have been tucking into lots of yums Ipoh food 😛
