This post was pending for quite some time, had some things to settle first before free to blog.
Mooncake festival 2010, we had a small gathering at my house with my relatives. It was on the weekend, 18th of September, Saturday instead of the real date, which is on the Wednesday.
My relatives were invited for a dinner gathering that day and all of us are required to help out. I was in charge of making the cendol agar but it turn out quite disastrous due to mis-communication. One of my aunt came earlier to help out while her children, which is also my cousins will come later.
We prepared a few dishes for the night including fried wanton, fried fucuk, fried taufu pok, fruit salad, siu bak choy, curry chicken (by aunt), fried meehon (by aunt), pork and agar. The drinks prepared were chinese tea and chin chau.
We arranged the tables and chair in the evening and my grandma also kepoh bit and came out to see what we youngsters doing. At the mean time, she's preparing the candles too, not for us, but herself to play with.
Not long after that, my relatives arrived and we start to arrange the food no the table too. The feel for mooncake festival this year is not as thick as previous years. Everyone just came to have a meal and some chat and nobody wants to play lanterns and candles anymore.
When the food is ready, the hungry people quickly line up and grab the food! Yes, this is the spirit.
In addition, this year my aunt's family brought their little poodle to join the party.
Well, we had a small small candle session instead but no lanterns this year because we didn't prepare it. Ghosting and lens flare is quite obvious due to the filter, it can be eliminated after removing the filter thou. But since I'm playing with the star eight filter, no choice then.
Last but not least, Happy Midautumn festival!
