My CNY celebration

捞鱼生 is essential during the CNY period, as we Chinese believe that tossing of Yu Sheng will bring good luck for the coming New Year.
 
Every year, like before, Baby needs to go back to KL, M'sia to visit his relatives, and therefore, we had our mini reunion celebration before he left Singapore on the CNY Eve. We went to our favorite eatery place, Dian Xiao Er.

 
Obviously, we could not miss on our favorite Signature Angelica Herbal Roasted Duck. In addition to this, we had the Soup of the Day, and a Stir Fried Baby Kai Lan with Lime.
 
 
I had a simple yet harmonious reunion dinner with my family on the eve of CNY, with another round of Yu Sheng after the reunion dinner! 

 
On the first day of CNY, my family and I went to visit my aunt's place at Tampines. I had my lunch before heading to the airport to catch my flight to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia to join Baby and his relatives for dinner.
 
I was pretty excited to fly by myself for the second time! I did the self-check-in for my Jetstar flight at the kiosk at in Terminal 1. It took 45mins to reach the destination, and Baby picked me up from KLIA2.

I had dim sum brekkie at Tim Ho Wan which is located at 1-Utama with Baby's Mommy, Brother and his relatives. 

 
I did some shopping at 1-Utama, and I picked up a few tops from Padini for my 开工大吉 on the fourth day of CNY. Apart from the tops, I also picked up some chokers from Lovisa at 3 for RM45! 

 
We had our lunch at Madam Kwan's which is also located at 1-Utama, as Baby misses the restaurant's signature Nasi Bojari. We had a nice meal and the damage was about RM85.

 
We made a little fortune during the Blackjack session at Uncle Mike's place. 

 
We had a simple brekkie before heading to the airport for our Singapore home-bound flight from KL on the third day of CNY. 

 
Baby brought my folks for simple, yet homely CNY Day 3 Dinner at Chinatown Point. 

 
I end my post with some gifts I received from my lovely friends. 

 
Jia Ying picked up a lot of goodies for me during her Seoul trip in January.  

 
Joanne also got me some beauty products from her Seoul holiday in December last year.

 
Poppy got me some souvenirs from her recent trips last year to Seoul and Australia + a belated X'mas gift.


 
Lastly, Meryl picked up a beautiful choker from China during her lay-over. Thanks and I love it very much!

They are also infused with a specific scent - such as Pink Grapefruit, White Musk or Cherry Blossom, or the most popular floral scent, Baby Powder.

Thanks for introducing COCOnCO from Korea which has helped me to achieve pleasant results from my beauty regime.   COCOnCO First Essence Toner  is a fermented facial essence, and it soothes wrinkles, tones, moisturizes and nourishes the skin, enhances blood circulation and metabolic processes at the cellular level, evens out complexion, brightens the skin, reduces the secretion of sebaceous glands and fights rashes. If you have pale, tired skin with sagging and fine lines, these can be miraculously transformed with regular use of the essence! It is suggested to be used as the first step in daily skin care. Apply it to cleansed skin first before applying the lotion, emulsion/serum and cream.  It is recommended for the product to be used twice a day - Once in the morning, and once in the evening.

The common scalp problems can cause a lot of irritation, but also hair loss. I was in complete shock at the state of my nightmarish infected scalp!
