Birthday Dinner_9March10

Yesterday was hubby's birthday and we had an enjoyable time celebrating his birthday. Since I've got him his birthday gift weeks earlier, there's no more birthday gift for him on the actual day ;p

So, I took 1/2 the day off to cook him a nice dinner. No 9 course dinner la although that crazy thought did cross my mind. Haha....how in the world can we finish 9 dishes right....so, to be practical, just something that he likes lor.

Lettuce with garlic and soy sauce, Steamed Fish with bean paste & Baked chicken drumsticks


Herbal Chicken Soup


Lychee and Mango dessert

These were what we had for dinner last night and nope, I didn't manage to bake him a cake. At first I thought I'd bake a cake but then I'd have to buy lots of things to decorate the cake. That's something I try to avoid because I am trying to finish up my baking ingredients so that I can have some space in the fridge. The main reason is, I don't thinkI can cope baking a cake and cooking dinner on the same day. It's just too tiring for a fat woman like me now ;p

Since we had Bible study last night, I bought him a nice fruit cake with a chocolate sponge base to celebrate his birthday with the brothers from church. I made some lychee jelly too and bought some snacks. Overall, I think it's a meaningful way to celebrate birthday with loved ones :)
