and be condemned for it.

DeleteTasty home cooked dishes especially the prawns. Your home made yee sang looks good - any recipe to share?
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mun. No special yee sang recipe to share. I use cucumber, daikon, carrot, pomelo, fried wanton wrappers for crunchies, crushed peanuts and toasted sesame. I used sliced canned abalone to replace raw fish. For the sauce, I mixed orange jam, plum sauce, salt, honey, a bit of water. Sprinkle 5 spice powder, and pepper. That's all.
DeleteThe box is so pretty, and you could find many different uses for it. Wow, the flower and bug! It is a Ladybug, but with an unusual spot pattern.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ginny. Ladybugs are friends of my garden.
DeleteSuch a feast! Happy Chinese New Year, Nancy.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Angie. Happy weekend!

DeleteLadybird, ladybird, fly away home! We used to say that as children, or use the word ladybug, either one.
ReplyDeleteA love dinner, and a happy lunar new year to all.
Thank you, Mimi. It is good to have ladybirds in my garden.
DeleteWow your reunion lunch and dinner look so yummy. I am drooling at the meatballs, steamed chicken and soy sauce prawns. Need a lot of work to cook pig stomach.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Libby. I used to clean and wash the pig's stomach. Nowadays, I pay extra to have the stomach cleaned and washed. Saves a lot of work for me.
