Today is the eve of the eve of CNY, and we're starting to get ready for the celebrations. First thing after breakfast is to head to Ipoh Parade to buy groceries, including large bottles of mineral water for the household consumption. As we waited for daddy to buy some drinks from Hank's, Mei-mei decided to pose with the decorations:

Two men who walked pass us were so amused with her pose!

We ate the noodles (Hokkien mee from Penang and curry mee from Ipoh, along with a lot of fried stuff from K10) for lunch.

After that it was time to cut cut cut, cook cook cook:

Kor-kor and Chim Poh frying prawn crackers 

Chim Poh cutting up the cabbage

After all that hard work, we headed out to a cafe to relax with a cup of coffee, some cakes and savories too:

Dinner was supposed to be Kai See Hor Fun, but we weren't too keen so Chim Poh helped us book a table in The Museum. It was outdoor seating, rather hot, but the food (and company.. Ashley Kor-kor and Uncle Dennis joined us) were great!

Went home and the kiddies had fun playing with the fireworks.

And finished off the night with cool, cool drinks.
