Best wishes…

…for the New Year – the Year of the Snake…

Qong Xi Fa Cai, Kong Hee Fatt Choy…Sin Nee Huat Chai and Xin Nian Kuai Le…to all celebrating this auspicious occasion…

…and a very very big thank you once again to Annie-Q for the bak kua & cookies…

…and also to Huai Bin for the bak kua and all the stuff from you…

…and Yee Ling for the ang pao and gift…

…and not forgetting Mandy for the greeting card, thanks again…

…the Ipoh Mali ladies, Elin and Claire for theirs as well…

…and Yan from Taiping, also in Perak…

…and a trillion zillion thanks again and again to my very dear friend in New Zealand. I’ve finished all the chocolate cake now but I’ve saved the precious loaf of liquor-rich fruit cake for this special day and the cookies too…

Thank you all so very much!

A Happy & Prosperous Chinese New Year to one and all and to those not of Chinese descent, happy holidays and come, come and share the joy, the happiness of this grand festival!
