Met up with the JC friends for a Christmas Gathering on Christmas Day itself. Cecilia's aunt had a rental place which was vacant for the day. We trooped over to the place. It was near the workplace, and the windows looked directly at our office building. Ha, its the holidays and I'm near the workplace. Signz, if I lived near the area, the travelling time is wonderfully short.. ;p
Roast Chicken
Our hostess busied herself with the cooking of rather yummy cuisine. It was actually the most Christmassy meal I had for the past few days. There were mussels with white wine, prawns in chili sauce, spaghetti with cream sauce, squid with salt & pepper, roasted Chicken on a bed of potatoes and carrots, fillings for crackers. So very yumms. Plus, Fen joined us finally. After so many years. Its great to attend a gathering without the dearie at times. No one brought partners, so it was just the mates.
We did the requisite gift exchange. I got a rather pretty precious moments stamp set from Wen. Plus, Santa Colin got us all presents. A pretty mug. It was great meeting up with the JC mates.
Gift ExchangeI ended the day at the In-Laws's place. Where the little ones had great fun opening up their pressies. We ate Chinese, Curry with Bee Hoon. Not too Christmassy huh, but rather economical.. opps.
26th Dec 09. Was supposed to meet the babes for a meal. But Han went overseas last min, so the meet up was postphoned. So, I woke up late and went shopping with the dearie. Post Christmas Sales mah! We ended the day with great steamboat dinner prepared by the mother-in-law. Very yumms. *burp* food overdose these past few days. I so lurve the holiday season with its long weekends.
