A swinging good time this CNY!

Hou! Hou! Hou! To celebrate the year of the Monkey, Lesley-Anne shot a series of impish chimp photos, like how she did the Star Wars theme last year. Not too difficult, the monkey is rather photogenic.

Every CNY, the food takes centrestage in our family. My mil makes her own pineapple tarts, jelly, yam coins, ngoh hiang and two types of kueh (radish and pumpkin). Since her eyesight has deteriorated with age, she's now unable to cook most of the dishes herself. Thankfully though, my helper has learnt from my mil for a few years and she is now Mistress of the Kitchen. She practically whips up all the dishes for the CNY lunch and dinner for the extended family single-handedly. Such a Godsend!
