I appear to associate myself with food quite a lot. Must be something about being Malaysian. A common way of affirming friendships or any relationship is down to food. It's all about feasts! How much can we eat? How good is the food?
And enough of the silly rhymes. On Monday, I organised a last minute Chinese New Year dinner and somehow I managed to pull it off and made 8-courses! YES!
Although a last minute dinner I managed to get Xindan and Jo-Pei around. Carlo lives with me so he's obliged to eat the food I prepare. Chad, well, it's free food. What can I say? (I do love him to bits!)
I continued this reaffirmation of friendship thing over food again on Thursday by meeting Keiko for lunch. I realised that I hadn't seen her for over half a year even though we keep meaning to meet up, and it's manic! She even works in the same area that I do, lives relatively close to me and well, we just can't arrange a time to see each other. But we promise to meet up with each other more often. That's in the next 6 months right?
Tonight I had fantastic crepes made by the ever wonderful Frenchie. Jean-Marie outdid himself and produced the best crepes ever. And the bonus point of having Ale as his girlfriend meant that there was ham on the table. Impressed! Wonderful company. We got Andres and Akua, Chad and a couple of Ale's housemates around as well.
Can't wait until Monday night when Katey has promised me roast Thai onion soup as well as sword fish steaks for dinner with the promise of dessert being ice cream spooned straight from the tub direct to the gob.
Who knows what Tim and Joy are promising on Wednesday evening? I promised to make creme caramel for dessert and they are providing the main.
Fantastic, scrumptious, delicious, exciting food!
I now have way too much hibernation blubber going on but who cares!
Calories don't really count when eating with friends.
