Lovely Gifts From Near And Far...

What does Christmas and Chinese New Year have in common?? Well, the answer is GIFTS!
Yes, during these two festive seasons, I am so blessed with gifts, edible and non-edible, but I am sure you can guess which I rather prefer... hehehee... something that can be tasted and not wasted! hahahaa...

Yes, I have these wonderful tasty great stuff from friends far and near... here on my dining table is a half portion of what I received as new year gifts... supposedly to keep for Chinese New Year but as you can see, most of them are opened and eaten!! hahhaaa...

everything I like ... are here...

two packets of meat floss...
home-made by my colleague...

from KL SK.....
must keep this for CNY...

I just received these yesterday from a KL lady too
Poppy seeds and black sesame cookies... so so nice!
Just a few pieces left only!

these were hand delivered from a KL lady....
they look "gorgeous!!"

these... no need to guess... almost finished too by now..
she gave me another 2 big tins of nga ku too...
(not in picture cos under safe keeping!)
Thank you so much, friends,
Sure feeding me very well... hahahaa...
I guess this will be a FAT new year!!
Not FATT ... FAT.... hahahaaa.....
