26 February 2021 ~ Chap Goh Meh 2021

We had a healthy yee sang alongside a small feast to celebrate the last day of CNY today.  Dinner was held at hubby’s aunt’s unit (2 floors below ours) again.

Sherilyn made the yee sang composed of fresh radish, jicama, carrot, purple and green cabbage, cucumber, red bell pepper, green onions, homemade pickled radish, pickled jicama, Pacific clams, black & white sesame seeds, ground peanuts, plum sauce with sesame seed oil and pok pok chui.

Can you see the shape of the ox’s face? We think it looks like an angry feral bull instead of a cow 😆

Braised mushrooms with sea cucumber and abalone.

Steamed fish.

Dried waxed meat and 12345 pork ribs.

Sand ginger chicken (ordered by hubby’s aunt)

Here’s tossing to a better 2021 for everyone — good health, better wealth, prosperity and happiness.

And with this marks the end of CNY 2021 amidst a Movement Control Order (MCO 2.0).  It’s the most unhappening CNY ever for us and I’m sure for you too if your country is in a lockdown.

I’m sure Chinese New Year next year will be a more happening one when most of us have already gotten our Covid-19 vaccines.  I’ve registered to be vaccinated through the My Sejahtera app. Have you done it yet?  If you’ve not, don’t wait and register today. All it takes is just a few minutes and you’ll be on your way to be vaccinated; and may there be herd immunity within our community with hopefully an end to Covid-19 forever.

It was another super hot and sweaty day for us again. It looks like we’re expecting another unwelcomed visitor again – HAZE!

Why Brides and Bridesmaids Love Floor Length Chiffon Dresses

The choice of bridesmaid dresses is a tough decision for many brides. You must take into account many factors including your wedding theme, style, color scheme, venue, and personal taste. And you have to think about your bridesmaids’ body shape and preferences and find the dresses that they will like and feel comfortable in.   Long gowns are always a good idea and they look splendid for any type of wedding as the designs and styles are plentiful.

There’s something about floor length chiffon dresses that make them so captivating that every bride and bridesmaid would love to slip into one.   Floor-length gowns still have a sense of being classy, festive and formal, while shorter styles are chic, more casual and sweet! However, both lengths can be dressed up or down to fit any event so the real task is determining which is the right length for your big day!  If you are planning a formal wedding, long gowns for your girls are the best option.

The variety of styles for floor-length gowns is endless. Chiffon is an especially popular fabric for floor length dresses.   Chiffon is usually very sheer which gives it that whimsical, draped look.  Chiffon is also one of the most versatile dress materials and most sought after for bridesmaid dresses.

Alfabridal.com carry a lovely collection of floor length chiffon bridesmaid dresses. Every design has its unique features.
