Happy Niu Year gatherings

we started this CNY clebrations with the usual round of makan sessions, starting with Boon Peng and Joyce's place on CNY eve.

it was a magnificent spread with delicious contributions from everyone. In particular, Shirley's vege soup was excellent, so was Gillian's fragrant braised pork and Clara's char bee hoon! as usual the curry gravy disappeared in a jiffy

Robina and I prepared baked sole fish.

Wei Wen's blueberry pie and strawberry pie were excellent!

after dinner activities was mainly setting off fireworks, fire crackers and sparklers with the rest of Beijing.
