Day +935 : Chinese New Year Eve

I am fine today.

Today is Chinese New Year Eve, we are busy cooking again. 

After coming back from church at about 12:00pm, we started to prepare dishes for tonight's new year dinner.

We had a combined dinner with my sister family again this year. My wife and I prepared 4 dishes for the dinner - sea cucumber soup, seafood beancurd, fried Mee Hoon and fried prawn.

Three years ago, I spent my Chinese New Year in the hospital. I was doing my second round of chemotherapy at that time. I am very happy and feel so blessed  to be able to celeberate Chinese New Year with my family.
