I had celebrated CNY this year (actually this is a post-blog entry since it's 2 weeks ago) with my family and relatives. This year is not surprising as compared to last year as I got an abundance of RM150 of ang-pow money. I like the toss of yee-sang, shark fin soup, fresh steamed promfret fish - all cooked by my grandma and my aunt.
Anyway, this year's CNY has passed very quickly. My mum even joked to my relatives during Aunty Foong's CNY open-house held on Sat (27th of Feb) that after this year's Chap Goh Meh, it would be "Chung festival". "Chung festival" is held every year right after the 15th day of CNY. During this auspicious event, we'll eat plentious of steamed Chinese dumplings for good luck and longevity. There's actually a story behind the occasion but I need to find out from the Internet if you really need to know the legend that happened thousands and thousands years ago. Everyone in the family will look forward to this occasion.
Next, I had paid a visit to Aunty Foong's bungalow house on Sat. Very nice and comfortable especially the interior designs. Haah, but I'm not that pretty sure if I wanna go there again in the next coming few years as I felt 'paiseh' to receive ang pows from my relatives (occasionally and lately, I had been thinking how old I am and as I'm growing old, maybe it's time to stop receiving red packets fyi :o)
Unfortunately, I don't have photos to upload now coz' they're still in the camera. ahaha. I will upload it for your pleasure viewing when I'm ready for it.
