Day 81: Wan Tan Party~~

Adelynne and I tried our hand at organising our own party last Thursday and this was no ordinary party, but a 云吞面 or wan tan mee party... :D Total number of guests: 13 Total number of dumplings:120 Total amount of minced pork used: 2lbs!! Glad to say that we had great fun preparing the meal and luckily everything came out edible, and tasted quite good too~

We marinated the meat the previous night.. Looks like a lot right!

Seasoning~ cos pork in UK has a very distinct smell >.<

Our secret ingredient.. hehehe...

I was official garlic chopper..

and spring onion chopper.. stupid spring onions made me cry like mad.. :*

Sample of our final product! :)

Only 11 people in this photo, Jason was the photographer and someone else came late :*

Some of the food for 13 people.. We had vege with minced meat and meatballs
(hahahaha.. cos more meat than wantan wrappers..)

Another group pic~

Cheers!!!
I like Peach Schnapps and Lemonade~~

After dinner, we had a very crazy event- a mock birthday celebration.. hahaha @.@~ we'd actually had this idea since a long time ago, cos we were kind of jealous of the people who got to celebrate their birthdays in UK, and have 31 hours instead of 24 to celebrate.. Just that our idea grew a little bigger and we decided to include everyone :D

We got 2 cheesecakes from Tesco and went hunting round Liverpool before we found some birthday candles~ searched high and low for them (i just realised there aren't any bakeries selling birthday cakes here, maybe everyone bakes their own??) but 有志者事竞成 :)

only so few end of the year babies :(


Hope everybody had fun and didnt think we were crazy lah :) dunno when we will ever get to do something crazy like this ever again~~
