CNY 2016 Day 1 and 2

Back to continue where I stop the previous time on CNY, and this will be my last post on CNY 2016. 

Goodies from Mum once again to bless us in this new year.

The yearly custom of having homecook reunion lunch before heading out for CNY visiting. Simply because there's no food and nothing beats comfort food :)

Cabbage with Mushroom and Wolfberries, Stir Fried Pork with Sliced Ginger.

After clearing up, it's time to get ready to dress up nicely and go out to 拜年.

#welfie taken at home.

Tried really hard to include the CNY decor in the background into our photo lol. 

Sending our CNY greetings to all our family and friends. We did this last year too haha!

Time flies and it's the 2nd year we are celebrating Chinese New Year in our home :)

#OOTD for Day 1

Headed to my aunt's place to 拜年. It's the first year my niece join us for CNY visiting haha.

Alright seems like she don't really know what's going on lol

They were all dressed in pink and it was not planned at all. 

Alright behind every scene, it's usually chaotic haha. And seems like the 2 youngest girls have become bff in a short while lol. 

It's my first year giving out the hong baos hence there's photo-taking to commemorate this moment.

My eldest niece

The 2nd eldest niece

Time really flies and all of them are so grown up now! And that would means how much I've aged too :(

Back to my parents' place after visiting my aunt..

Yet another feast waiting for us even though it's much simpler this time. But still the food is way too much for us haha! Indeed the best season to gain fats. 

One more #OOTD taken before we left for home after spending half a day at the west. 

On CNY Day 2, we had a good rest before preparing for the reunion dinner with Derp's immediate family members.

Steamboat in the house!

#welfie with the family members

We used 海底捞's steamboat soupbase for the steamboat. I ordered it from Qoo10 and glad that it came in time for the reunion dinner. It tasted good (even though I've not try the actual 海底捞 steamboat before), but however the MSG level in the soupbase is really high. All of us felt so thirsty after the steamboat dinner though.

Not very sure if the actual 海底捞 taste the same and will only know when we decide to try it. The queue seems to be always long!

This year CNY's celebration is really short (just simply 2 days and everyone is back to work) so there isn't much chance to do more CNY visiting. Hopefully in the coming new year, we will have more chance to do visiting and catching up with our relatives/friends.
