It was nice to see everybody get together, laughing chit chatting and the kids running around.
It's a tradition to have reunion dinner on Chinese New Year Eve.
Since I only come back once a year, I always see something new every year when I'm back.
BABIES.
My mom's family is huge. I got 4 aunts and 4 uncles. then I got probably 15 cousins. then nephew and niece.. don't even need to ask me. I lost count. I'm forgetful,I know.
Oh well, babies are cute. As long as I get to take photos of them, I think that's good enough :P
At least I can recognise their faces next time when I see them.
We had Yu Sang as our 1st dish.
Yusheng , yee sang or yuu sahng (simplified Chinese: 鱼生; pinyin: yúshēng) is a Chaozhou-style raw fish salad. It usually consists of strips of raw fish (most commonly salmon), mixed with shredded vegetables and a variety of sauces and condiments, among other ingredients. Yusheng literally means "raw fish" but since "fish (鱼)" is commonly conflated with its homophone "abundance (余)", Yúshēng (鱼生) is interpreted as a homophone for Yúshēng (余升) meaning an increase in abundance. Therefore, yusheng is considered a symbol of abundance, prosperity and vigor.
