blue moon at stargal’s…

2 weeks ago, it was my turn to have a blue moon… actually, it was sweet sheila and yakking yvette’s blue moon, but they thought it’ll be more comfortable to have it at my place. so the 3 of us shared this “blue moon session”.

it’s steamboat again, since it’s the easiest to prepare and requires almost 0 cooking skills! “almost” coz u still need to know HOW to prepare the raw stuff :P

sempat cam-whoring even while eating. see that little blue japanese bowl on the table there? it contained a “special sauce” that i made using garlic, cili padi, coriander and soy sauce. not to brag, but it was a hit! :P

nice girl natalie and joyous josephine…

lovely lily and stargal…

for desserts, i brought out the chocolate liqueurs that my ex-colleague bought for me from her trip to langkawi, that i shipped over (resulting in a few getting dented). what better way to enjoy these than with a bunch of good company, right? besides, they’re nearing their expiry dates and i dun wanna be stuffing my face with all these chocs so as not to waste them!

actually the “real” dessert that night was supposed to be ice-cream (that pink stuff there) but a few of my guests have not seen these chocolate liqueurs before. in fact, i think only nice girl natalie has ever tasted them.

so it was clear who took centre stage that night…

anyway, at nearly every blue moon or makan session, we’ll come away with some funny remarks/phrase that we’ll joke and laugh, quote and re-quote after. here are 2 from our previous sessions:

"i'm shy" at chinese steamboat buffet:
joyous josephine: stargal, finish up this last piece!
me: dun wan lar. i'm shy!
joyous josephine and everyone else: =_='''

"we don't care" at korean restaurant:
smiling rachel: eh, u all scoop out the rice into your bowl ar? aiyo, i'm eating it straight from the claypot. so embarrassing...
nice girl natalie: it's ok, we don't care... just eat!

and at this latest blue moon, we had one more…

"built for comfort" at blue moon at stargal's:
me: aiyo, so full! we'll never become slim at the rate we're going!
lovely lily: it's ok, darling. we're built for comfort, not for speed!
