Christmas Food And Cheers 2009

It’s Christmas Eve and I haven’t wrapped my family’s presents!! I got up just now and saw a lot of wrapped presents in the living room. Looks like I’m the last one to wrap my presents! I’ll do it after writing this post.

This looks like my busiest Christmas ever. This is also a time when I have little access to cooking facilities and internet connection. But I’m still having fun and enjoying myself. I know there are lots of things to do the next few weeks but life is about taking one step at a time.

As I look through these few months of cooking and blogging, there are some dishes that are my favourite which I would want to cook today and tomorrow. Here are just a few:

Women’s Happy Hours While Husbands Work

Awesome food by awesome ladies

Some of the best times that I have when my husband goes to work are Women’s Happy Hours where we have lots of food and all the absurd, interesting topics to share and laugh. It’s also a time we put our cooking skills to the test. We joke, we laugh, we tease each other, we exchange information and news etc etc. It’s always so relaxing and fun. We have always been such a happy, noisy bunch of ladies. I’m sure when each return to her own home, she is a better, happier wife and mother. All our husbands have to be happy and thankful when their wives go for such women’s happy hours.

Then when the event is over, I would heave a big sigh of relief that finally it was over!

Top 10 Benefits of Food Blogging

1. Everyone has to eat
   Everyone has to eat to live, weather pauper’s food or palace food. Food is of utmost importance, one of the basic needs of life. We started to eat the day we were born. When I craved for certain food and couldn’t have it, even a picture of it is very gratifying. The next thing is I’ll try to cook it. As long as I don’t give up I know I’ll get it right one day.

Vietnamese And Chinese Food In London

Vietnamese Bun Tom Hue

Food, all types of food, always fascinates me. The colour, the ingredients, the way it is cooked really intrigues me. On top of that, food is powerful enough to bring people together and deepens friendship. When other businesses suffer during recession, food business is the least affected.

Every country has so many different cuisines that it’s not possible to taste all but it is possible to try and appreciate some of them. I have tried quite a number of them, some are awesome but some are not. It’s not because they are not good but just that I have not acquired the taste.
