Christmas is Family!

Christmas came early this year in Perth as we had the Christmas dinner last night. It was a wonderful meal with the family and everyone went home well fed with satisfying pressies. Look at the Tree with the pressies before distribution!
Everyone is tucking in. There were fresh oysters as entries and learned that mybakuteh quietly slid down four! And where did all the dine food come from?
First the chicken from the special all-in-one cooker from Langford. In no time, Lta Ennoying went to carve up the tasty chicken for all to sample!

Then there was the leg of ham from Kaledoscop3. It was a winner for sure and someone said the outside looked like pineapple tarts. But the real wonder was the giant prawns. Big juicy, head suckable, and with meat tasting as good as lobsters! Wondered who ate three! And what is a meal without soup! Probably the best mushroom soup comes from Justin who zealously threw in mashed potatoes also. And they were completed lapped up!

And the grand finale was the desert from Sian! Three courses of tasty deserts: the Cheese Cake which is deceptively white ( red and green inside), the Log Cake which mybakuteh loves, and the lemon pastries! And it was one full days work from office to get this act of love!!!!
Then it was pressie opening time. MC Sarge Wen gave out the pressies as everyone waited with bated breath. Seems everyone got what they wanted - cooking for Kaledoscop3, gardening for Lins, BBQ for Sarge Wen, and fishing for the indianboyfriend. In fact, he has got 3 fishing books - one on identification, one on where to fish and one on catch and cook! There is the fishing jacket and a fishing watch to tell when is the best time to fish... but you got to punch in the latitude and longitude into the watch!


And here are the anxious people waiting for their pressies! Lta Ennoying thought he got a poo picker but it turned out to be a BBQ scraper!The most popular was the travelling  twisting neck rest from Kaledoscop3 where there were four beneficiaries to this uique gift!
Christmas is for the family and it was a perfect Christmas meal until Sarge Wen stopped all activity and use this iphone apps to play amazing grace. But it was an appropiate song for Christmas,wasn't it?
Lastest in Perth... heard young Pirate sprained one his his legs and is now hopping around with one eye and three legs!Stick around and hear about the indianboyfriend's  deep fishing trip!
Have a great day!
