Ushering in the Year of the Rabbit

In keeping with our tradition, we invited our friends over to celebrate Chinese New Year. Everyone brought something delicious to share. A few good men and a lady helped put together our new Ping pong table while the rest of us stayed indoors for some Kinect games.

祝大家新年快乐，万事如意！

   
  
Silly Anthea heated up her black chicken soup in her crockpot on the stovetop and the base of her crockpot literally fell off! Luckily, Will caught the soup in another pot in the nick of time!           

Preparing for Sesame

Will installed new flooring in the common bath with his own bare hands!  

he put in a new light fixture..

changed out the shower head…

and we finally made a choice between ‘Pale cucumber’, ‘Chinese jade’ and ‘Cilantro cream’ for an accent wall in the nursery…..  

Farewell 2010!

2010 has been a great year for us. We were fortunate to not have been hit by the recession, our family and friends remain healthy and happy, one of my BFFs got engaged, and most of all, we were blessed with the conception of Sesame. We celebrated New Year’s eve by making dumplings, hot & sour soup, marinated cucumber, sliced beef, tofu & seaweed – compliments of chef Tso.

     

California Academy of Sciences

Lunchi and Sharon suggested visiting the newly reopened museum located in the Golden Gate Park. The website states that its the only place on the planet with an aquarium, a planetarium, a natural history museum, and a 4-story rainforest all under one roof with hundreds of unique exhibits and nearly 40,000 live animals. It was packed but definitely worth visiting, and hopefully with a good discount on the tickets.  http://www.calacademy.org/visit/

On our way to the tropical rainforest. The humidity sure reminded us of Singapore! 

  
On our way home from dinner at one of our favorite restaurants - San Tung, the boys ended the evening with an In & Out burger. After a bite, the girls regretted not getting one too!
