cny 2010 & valentine's day

this chinese new year, hubby and i were not able to go back to celebrate this festive season with my family. however, hubby wants me to celebrate chinese new year over here even if it's just for a day. so on eve, i made mee sua and hubby made pork satay and peanut sauce. it was yummy-licious.

then on chinese new year day, we invited hubby's parents over to have a simple meal. hubby asked if i wanted to have friends over and have a small-ish party. i was worried that i might be too stressed out about food, so i choose to have family members instead. so i made stir-fry mixed veg, mushrooms with minced meat fillings, steam fish with soy sauce and spicy nyonya chicken. to finish off the meal, i made red bean jelly. it didn't quite turn out the way i wanted it to but it was good nonetheless...hahahaha....

and for valentine's, hubby got me this...

Happy Chinese New Year and Happy Valentine's Day :)
