I am fine today.
I am almost fully recovered from cough and flu, and no longer having fever now. I give praise to God for the speedy recovery from infection without even taking any of the three medicines that was prescribed to me by the doctor yesterday. Our God is great and He is the healer who listens to our prayer. I also appreciate your prayer.
We also celebrated Mid-Winter festival today, a day earlier because my eldest sister will be going back to Kuching tomorrow morning.
I was well enough to go to Bintangor town early in the morning to shop for the Mid-Winter dinner. Apart from the tangyuan(汤圆), we prepared many dishes.
Though I didn’t have chance to celebrate Mid-Winter with all my family members, I am glad to have my mother, 3 sisters (out of 4) and 2 brothers (out of 4) and their children joining the celebration.
My mother - our heroine. She managed to bring up 9 children with the absence of my father.

Now introducing the many delicious foods that we had for the dinner.
Butter milk fish fillet.

Pineapple spareribs
Seacucumber soup
Sushi

Fried Mee
Cocktail
Egg roll
Durians - very good one. From my second sister's relative. Managed to finish all 9 pieces after the meal :-)
My sister-in-law discovered that we missed to eat one dish - the fried fish - only after the meal :-) Having too many dishes can be confusing and error prone :-)
See you next post :-)
