Some people have dinner on the Eve, some on New Year's Day, I guess.

We chose the Eve, since it's on a Saturday and no one's rushed to get home for work the next day. :)

I would have gone with the Yakiudon. I'm on the losing side again :beaten: But at least I'm consistent :crazy:

Me too.

The Neopolitan looked like nothing more than glorified spaghetti.

Well, we did have dinner Eve, my uncle wasn't supposed to be home on sat (sis wasn't available either), but my aunt changed it back to sat night without telling anyone. :bleh:

Ahh, the mass confusion that goes along with Chinese New Year... A long-standing tradition in many a family. ;)

We couldn't talk about the FOBs at the other tables, cause that would be the kids table.. :hehe:

Yup.

Ever since my dad passed away, my mom doesn't wanna hassle with cooking for all of us...

Ah.. i see.. :hug:

Totally forgot I picked up the ad this week:

ƒtƒHƒ“ƒ_ƒ“ƒVƒ‡ƒRƒ‰ (fondan chocolate [cake]) vs. ƒtƒ‹[ƒcƒ^ƒ‹ƒg (fruits tart)

Prepare for a desserts battle. Bon appetit.

Looks like we won't have to worry about "guts" being one of the ingredients :woot:

i ate crab guts on tuesday.. it was yummy...

Tonight's menu: Fondant (?) Chocolate vs. Fruit Tart

The chocolate thingy looks a lot like a chocolate lava cake.


I like chocolate, er, dark chocolate, but the fruit tart really caught my attention. :thumbsup:

The Fruite Tart wins, 4-3. :woot: :thumbsup:

And SMAP guy goes hungry... :hehe:

And so does that older guy with the half-cantelope on his head. :hehe:

In more ways than one...

Serves him right for selling out on his fellow fruit tart cohorts. :hehe:

You do have the gift. :mrgreen:

Chocolate is one of the few things I love more than Manami Konishi, so I knew which side I was going to be on from the beginning(Love is blind) :shakehead:
