2012 :: 1/365 - a new start

We started a tradition of celebrating new year (元旦) the Japanese way since 2010.  This year, Varpie decided we'll have the Leongs' new year luncheon at home.  So yesterday, a trip to Meidi-ya was in place to purchase the ingredients for preparing the Osechi.  We invited the Kwoks over for lunch, because Varpie and I felt terribly guilty on canceling a gathering at the eleventh hour the friday before.  For lunch, we had the usual Japanese sweets taken at new year, and finished off with shabu shabu.

As usual, the four boys had a blast! And the adults have great adult conversation! Something I am seriously in need of when I deal with the 2 kids 24/7.

It was a great way to spend the afternoon, in the company of great friends and monkeying boys!  And the babe was having fun being the center of attention! Imagine, the attention showered on her by all the kor kors!

Unfortunately, I forgot to take photos of the food nor the kids and adults. Oh well, next time!

This year, I shall attempt to update this blog as frequent as possible.  I have been very lassie faire about blogging, hope things will be better from now! ;)

cheers!
