eating yee sang at neighbour's house

After dinner, I was so full that I felt lazy to do anything. just want to have a good rest on the sofa seat after spending sometime in the kitchen just now. Then they said to me" lets go to neighbour's house but which neighbour's? I said err.. lazy leh.. why not another day. They said why not tonight as other nights got other friends' house to visit too. Then i said "okay, lets go then"

Off we went to hse No. 16, and called out loud as we arrived. "Auntie Chin, are you home, san nin fai lok". She answered happily from inside the house. "yess, yess, I am home". Then we asked her again "have you any other guests with you there"? She said, "no no.. just come in.

She invited us to take a seat as she went in to the kitchen to prepare some yee sang for us to eat together. Wow having yee sang at her house? So nice of her. Was so glad and thank God for the many blessings.

In my earlier posts I thought I will be celebrating "YAN YAT" like any other normal days, eating can food sardine and one or two other dishes. Indeed came to a surprise for us as we thought today is already the seventh day of Chinese New Year althought it is "Humans' Day" we will only be served cookies,candies,drinks or mandarin oranges like what people usually do when guests are invited after so many days during the Chinese New Year.

This is how the yee sang is being prepared by my neighbour.

there are the nine of us having "lou sang" together. As we lift up our chopsticks we said out as loud as we could with all the nicest words that we could remember


this is my share of yee sang. Looks delicious right!! Frankly speaking I think throughout my life this is the first time I have tasted such a yummy yee sang


start eating the yee sang already. Hope i can have my second helping.. too nice already cant stop praising how nice and tasty it is


about to finish already.. I took the big plate of yee sang and eat the remainder of the yee sang



this is my neighbour who prepared the wonderful delicious,yummy and tasty yee sang. She is such a good cook.. I told her as we were leaving to go back to our home after eating. "auntie Chin, next year nin chor chat, Yan Yat day we come again can"? She answered happily, "you are most welcome, do come again".

We then thank her for all her hard work preparing yee sang for us and said Good Night to her and with extra words, "hope everything you wish for will come true, whatever you do will come to success". We left the house and arrived back home around 10.10pm. Today is one of my happiest moment of the seven days of Chinese New Year, because I had a chance to taste the most delicious yee sang all my life during the Chinese New Year.

GONG XI GONG XI, SAN NIN FAI LOK AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THOSE WHO JUST DROP BY HERE.
