After much thought, we decided to celebrate Maya's birthday slightly earlier due to time constraint. This time around, we were a bit more ambitious and cooked everything by ourselves. Luckily, Harry's mum was ever so kind and offered to cook the fried rice, salted egg crabs and some pickles. Other items made by yours truly on the menu were; vinegar pork trotter, BBQ pork ribs, honey drumsticks, quail eggs mung bean dessert, steamed prawns, garlic boiled pork belly and hello kitty strawberry konyaku jelly. The madness and whirlwind rush to get everything ready in a day reminded me of the days when I was still working in Pavilion but just that, this time it revolves around Maya's nap time, and breasfeeding demands.In the kitchen, every single stove top had pots boiling, the steamer was in use, the oven always had food cooking and the blender was whirring until the motor was hot, but all the effort was worth it as every guests went back with smiles on their face and a full tummy. Thank you to everyone who came and made Maya's birthday an extra special one! Happy birthday to my dearest daughter, mummy and daddy love you!
