Third Day of Hari Raya Aidilfitri 15 October 2007

This morning went to Foo Phin Dim Sum Restaurant with my family for breakfast.

Rosalind and Alistair could not join us cos Ali is having fever.

When we arrived, there were already a lot of people but while we were eating, more people turned up.

We had siu mai, har kau, lo mai kai, char siew jue cheong fun, pai kuat and beef balls. Mervis paid for the bill so I don’t know how much the bill came up to be.

I had a small bowl of porridge (with dried scallops, dried oysters and century egg) cooked by the maid for lunch. I didn't take the century egg.

At 3pm, I showed mum how to use the electric oven to cook the ‘siu yuk’ for dinner. I tried a piece and it tasted ok, but the skin is not very crunchy.

Since I only had porridge for lunch, I was hungry. I found some snacks for afternoon tea.

Recently we had mum’s siblings staying with us from overseas. I don’t know who brought us the mini cheddars (double cheesy cheddar snacks) biscuits. Either Uncle Philip Lee from United Kingdom or Aunty Brenda Lee from United States of America. But I know Aunty Brenda took the Blended Nonfat Yogurt (Strawberry/Banana) from the plane she took from Los Angeles.

The biscuits are very tasty, can really taste the cheese. But I am sure lots of MSG went inside.
I haven’t had yogurt for a long time. Here the yogurt is simply too expensive so I just give it a miss. I can taste the strawberry but not the banana. Probably the taste of the strawberry covered up the taste of the banana.

I hope I won’t get stomach ache after eating these snacks cos the biscuits and the yogurt have due date of 2.10.07 and 9.25.07 respectively.

By analysing the date, I think the biscuits must be from Uncle Philip.
