Thanks to everybody for taking the time off to pay us a visit and extend your good wishes for the New Year – the Year of the Rabbit 2011.

I was back at work already yesterday, tired…but as they say, the show must go on. Technically, it is still Chinese New Year so do feel free to come by the house anytime when I’m home but of course, there wouldn’t be much to offer other than what’s left of the biscuits or cookies like these traditional peanut ones, for instance…

As for the ang paos, I’m afraid, ah^kam_koko’, that the following weekend would be too late as I would be in KL then and besides, that would be after Chap Goh Meh. Looks like you will have to wait till next year then – the Year of the Dragon. LOL!!!
