Everything in between lo-hei and yam paste

My yi-yi is back for Chinese New Year and we went out for dinner together at a teochew restaurant. It was a delicious dinner. Claire-claire will tell you about it.

Lo-hei came first. It is a very pretty dish with lots of colourful vegetables and crackers and pieces of fish. Never mind it being my first time, Claire-claire looks like an old hand at tossing the vegetables around. It's easy when it comes to playing with my food.


There was yummy braised duck, vegetables with "gou ji zi" (wolfberries), mushrooms and steamed pomfret. My papa says that Claire-claire is a pomfret connoisseur - Claire-claire only eats it when it is really fresh, sweet and soft.

Finally, my favourite dish of the evening - yam paste.
David, perhaps you can join me next time?

Hand-me-down

My great-grandmother hand-made this shirt.

My papa wore this shirt. So did my 叔叔. And my 姑姑.

Claire-claire wore it too.
And now, it's David's turn.

Outlier

My mama brought David to Dr Vanessa for his one-month old check-up today.
Here are the results.

My papa says that this is known as an outlier. Claire-claire is proud of David.

Gong Xi Fa Cai, everyone!

This year, Claire-claire got to spend a lot of time with my papa, mama and David at home because David is not strong enough to go visiting. We finally made one visit on Saturday....to my auntie J and uncle S' house.

My mama was happy because Claire-claire got to wear the outfit she bought for the occasion.

How does Claire-claire look?
