Papa's Birthday!!

Today is a BIG day for daddy!! So, in order to give our daddy a SMALL but valueble surprise, my sis & I decided to COOK!! Although it's not any luxurious/grand meal you can get in a hotel or something, and the food may also taste not as good..but it's the thought that counts afterall.. :)

So, what's in our menu?? Let's have a look.........


1. Black pepper lamb chop + vege + mashed potatoes
The lamb chops are SUPPOSED to be cooked by me..BUT since my aunty they all already arrived & i still yet to bath!! My aunt decided to grill them for me coz they all are starving.. haha.. The mashed potato is done by my sis & the vege is done by me(at least).. :p


2. Tomato soup
Believe it or not, this "oi sam tong" is cooked by me!! **proud** First time cooking this, the pot that i use to cook is slightly too small.. So, ended up the soup is slightly too "thick", but is consider quite delicious ohh.. hehe..


3. Fruits & vege salad
My sis's masterpiece.. I think she spent more than an hour just to cut these ingredients into smaller pieces.. ~~Wonderful~~ Unlike me, my way of cooking is ---> simply cut, then dump everything inside the wok and fry.. :p


4. Spaghetti
This is done by my sis.. Spaghetti with special sauce ---> tomato paste + onion + garlic + carrot + celery + "traffice light" peppers + mushroom + minced pork & chicken + fresh abalone!!


5. Mocktail
OK!! This is my masterpiece which i actually "dump" 2 cans of laici + 2 cans of "loh hon goh" = "undersea coconut"?? + 1 can of rambutan + 1 can of longan + ice.. During our meal, i was told by my uncle that 6 cans are TOO MUCH!! But i thought, the MORE the MARRIER mah.. :p


6. Dragon fruit from uncle..
I remember, Pin & Li Ping dislike this fruit coz they said the colour looks weird?!!


7. Blueberry cheese cake from aunty & uncle too.. ^.^


BIG family portrait before meal!!


~~Mi family~~ ^.^


My dad's funny look.. Lolz..


While everyone is so HUNGRY & can't wait to eat our delicious food, let's take another pic!! :p



During & also after the meal, my dad repeated the same phrase for few times; "this is the most wonderful birthday i've ever had"... ~~SO HAPPY~~ ^.^

p.s.: Happy Birthday to my friend, Bona too!! (What a coincidence.. haha)
