31 Jan 2009 : Froggie

A toad came to visit us almost every evening. How to differenciate a toad & a frog ? The skin of a toad is not smooth but with those "pimples". But I found the name froggie sounded better for this toad, instead of toaddie.

30 Jan 2009 : FeiKoKo & SW

We had buffet lunch in Shogun. To our surprise, the buffet was on promotion that one pax costed about RM33 after the discount. Kids below 4 years old are F.O.C.
After filling up our stomach, PL met up with feikoko & SW with their 2 sons in One U. Had a 1-hour chat at Waffle House.
We then had a shower at Yeow's place and departed to tgk.
Yeow's new place, indeed, was cosy. We would be visiting more frequent since mom moved south.

28 Jan 2009 : Aquaria


Followed by dinner......

28 Jan 2009 : TTDI

We made a trip to TTDI. It was a public garden or "taman" that many people started off their day. It was a good suggestion by Yeow since the sick CY needed some fresh air. He did enjoy running about and crawling in and out the tunnel at the kids' zone.

27 Jan 2009 : 2nd day of CNY


We had steamboat for lunch as usual, but we left over lots of dishes. PL decided to pack & bring over to PJ for 2nd steamboat feast with mom/yeow/cl.

Most of the contributors were busy. And, Chen & Xiao Ru needed to attend Xiao Ru's family luncheon.

We arrived in PJ at around 4 pm. After taking bath and settling down, we went to Wang Zhi for dinner. And, to PL's surprise, she found out that her HoD parents' house was just right behind Yeow's new place.

20 Jan 2009 : Steamboat feast

Ai.. forgot to take any photos again. Needed to remind herself again on any occassions again.
PL had a steamboat feast with her co-workers - Mr Lee, Khoo, Stewart, KinFatt, Wee, Grace and Carolyn. Teo was here but left before the dinner started. This steamboat feast was held as a separate session of house warming since a few persons were not around over the weekend. We had a good time chatting and eating.
As usual, they had a house tour before departure.
Mr Lee brought a Mattel, besides the CNY flower that he gave last afternoon. And, the rest bought a fire extinguisher. Ha... PL mentioned about the fire extinguisher which she did not buy over the dinner. No wonder some tried to keep quiet and some changed the discussed topic.
We were so absent minded that we did not serve the Mattel. It was opened but we totally forgot about it.

10 Jan 2009 : House warming

We held a house warming. The guests warmed up the house, indeed. Thanks for all that were present.
After a quick search of the catering service, PL decided to engage ICFF for their service. The food was delicious and the 50 pax package we ordered was not wasted. The leftover was only little portion of tropical fried rice & emperor noodles. CC's friend, Angie made 1 tray of sweet potato kuih and spring roll each, not forgetting mom's speciality, Penang Laksa were among the favourite of the guests too.
It was fun to have such function to gather the people together. However, if the number of people was not many, PL & CC could spend more time chatting with them. Anyhow, PL was going to hold another small session for a few fella from current company she attached to. Most probably, we would have steamboat since the guests (especially the MD & her boss) would like to have them during weekday. Due to time constraints during the weekdays, we would drop the BBQ plan.
Anyhow, anyone could visit us at any days as long as we were available.

To keep it in our memory would be a challenge, even a hard disk would crash.. thus, below was the list to warm up the house:
1. Family - PL, CC & little CY, PL's mom, CC's dad, Chen & XiaoRu, Yeow & ChenLi, Yin, uncle chee & Aunt Chris, Uncle David & Aunt Cecilia
2. Ex-Komagians/WD : KE Ong, SerTeck Ng & ShiSan Lai, Alan Wong & family, Boo, CM Chai, LiMien & Seow, Tham, Yenn & bf, Elbyta & fiance, Gan & family
3. Qi : Tee & wife, Rina, Grace (The rest would be in separate steamboat session)
4. Neighbour : Little yellow bee & family (nickname....we knew each other online...), No. 10 & No. 12 family
4. Cari - Whoopi & son/daughter, Limda & family, Yan & family, Monori & family, Angie & family, JooLiang
5. Old friends - Irene & family, SiewChu & family, Teik & family, Poh Ling & LaiPhing
6. Permas - Auntie mama (ex-bb sitter), Ah Po, SiewHwa & son, Ah Bi & mom / dad.......

03 Jan 2009 : Batu Pahat luncheon


PL has never been to Batu Pahat. We used the highway and passed through Ayer Itam to reach the destination. It was a short trip.
We found out that Tee & his wife were both great singer with great voice.
