: : Christmas Dinner ~ Part II : :

Hello everyone. It’s been a hectic week and so, not much postings. But, let’s continue on with the Christmas dinner

A quick note to say that we enjoyed 3 bottles of wine. I’m a lousy shot at explaining about the different tastes of wine. Plus, I had a glass of each wine but problem was, my tastebuds sort of soured when I tried different wines at the same time. Anyway, needless to say everyone had a sip of the bottle on the right since it came all the way from France, courtesy of Kula, my cousin-in-law. However, I did enjoyed the Penfolds as recommended by Sina’. “Nothing can go wrong with Penfolds.”

We had a lot of salads. Upper left is the potato salad mixed with chopped hard-boiled eggs and peas. It was simply mixed with mayonnaise, salt and pepper to taste. Bottom right were some boiled French beans served with chopped tomatoes. Fresh tasting.

Yummy yummy roasted potatoes? I love the crispy edges of roasted potatoes. Had a few, I can tell you that.

If you notice the dinneware, most of them were bought from a shop located along the Miri-Airport Road called Twinkle Star. Sina’ saw them being sold in the USA about 2 yrs ago for about USD10-USD30. In Miri, there were going very cheaply for RM10-RM30 (USD2.63 – USD7.89)!! Twinkle Star is a shop specialising in cheap goods from China. For the Kuching folks, I’m sure you’d be able to find something at MJC.

That’s all folks!
