my post might be a bit late,
but still wish every one happy winter's season with my most sincere heart^^
i still remember the time when i'm still in kk during this season,
and a few of us had made the glutinous balls 2gether~~
it's a wonderful memory i'll never forget~~❤
on monday, after i'd finally get my check up with the gynecologist, we stopped by at granny's place~~
planned to take a rest there b4 mum went on to work,
and also as a final visitation to her b4 i fly tis coming saturday~~
unexpectedly, granny's rolling all the glutinous balls~~
i asked mum few days ago when is the "dang cheh" and she told me not so fast =.=
tat's y it was a surprise as i did not expect "dang cheh" to be today, erm, i think yesterday by now~~
since she's at home all alone as uncle and aunty and my cousins had went out to work,
so me and mum helped her out a bit~~
it's like ages ago since i last roll the glutinous balls with my family~~
at home we dun do tat ever since grandpa passed away...
if i wana eat, mum will juz buy from the market~~
it's alwiz nice to have some activities with family members~~
especially someone elder like my granny,
whom we duno how much longer we could have her with us~~
so i appreciate every second that i spend with her~~
she reli loves me paying visits to her~~
and uncle had even reserved a big space on the wall in the living for my BIG graduation photo^^
so that granny could brag to everyone who visits her that she has a granddaughter who is a uni grad~~
well, anyhow, guess i'm gonna be the only one in the family~~
and it's alwiz my pleasure to know that they are all very proud of me~~
i reli thank every single one of them for giving me so much love~~
back to the topic today~~
the glutinous balls!!!
weeee~~
granny prepared the dough and me and mum juz helped to roll them into small balls~~
even though i feel that the balls that granny made are considered humungous and a bit bit out of shape =.=
but anyhow, when mum bougth some back for me from the market,
only i noe granny's are considered small and round enough~~
u ought to find a way to have some fun during work time!!!
tada!!! done!!!
granny asked me to take the photos at the end of all hard works~~
kekekekek~~
and u could see 12 bigger sized balls on the top part~~
they are called the "yi bo"~~
granny said "yi bo seh yi kia"~~
literally means that they are the mum giving birth to the baby balls~~
hahahahaha~~
well, it's our chinese traditional beliefs~~
12 yi bos for year end and 6 yi bos for mid-year~~
but nanny said nowadays ppl dun usually celebrate during mid-year ady~~
