Preparations normally started early, with the cleaning and
tidying up the house, and of course the shopping and marketing. I had thought
that being retired; I would definitely have more time to do all I want for the
Lunar New Year.
I did have more time, and I did take it easier (my husband
too), and I did include a few more things that I did not do in previous years,
namely baking some cookies and using home prepared ‘rempah’ ingredients for my curries
during this festive season.
Another, novelty albeit unfortunate one is I picked up a flu
virus and was sick for the Lunar New Year.
So it ended up, a ‘slower,’ toned down New Year.

| My beautiful friend |
I feel obliged to write about my friend here, who has been
with me for a few years now. I did not realize that it was turning into such a
beautiful shape till a few days before Chinese New Year. Not wanting to miss
out such an opportune timing, I could not help but dress it up a bit. It may
not be the most beautiful dragon around this Chinese New Year, but it is
definitely good enough for me.
Sorry, my friend for my below average art skills.
