May Day

Today is May Day holiday and as it falls on a Friday, everyone gets to enjoy a long weekend. Mummy decided that instead of the usual Friday night dinner at Bishan, we should go out for lunch. She chose one of our favourite Teochew restaurant called Swa Garden at MacPherson Road and she ordered their favourite dish, the Ah Kua crab so called because they can't figure out if it is a male or female crab. We also had other yummy dishes like their lobster Ngor Hiang, Teochew Kway Teow and special Tofu. We didn't order their "Or Ni" dessert as we were going to Ah Mah's house for Ginko nut soup. Daddy loves it as it helps with his memory problem.

For dinner, Daddy decided to cook his favourite Parsley Prawn Pasta, something he hasn't done since moving to our current place cos the kitchen is Nai Nai's territory now. However, since she wasn't going to be in tonight, Daddy decided to practise his culinary skills. He wasn't very impressed with himself but Mummy decided to be nice and said it was good. As I have already had my milk, I accompanied them as they ate in front of the TV like they used to do back in Joo Chiat.
