Merry Christmas Extinct Gang!
This year our gatherings were all aimed to be hosted at our homes and lucky us got to celebrate Xmas at liyean's new house. Potluck party with great food-salad, pasta, grilled chicken, sheperd's pie, ham, mudpie! The atmosphere was heightened with liyean's decorations on the table, red scented candles and pretty flowers, romatic! And for the first time, all of us brought our partners so the gang was bigger and more fun!

What's a party without Xmas gift exchange which comes with constraints, no Bodyshop, no mugs, no food items! The gift has to be meaningful! Besides gifts exchange, there was also our Xmas cards exchange, year after year without fail, this gang have always been making it a point to write cards, even if we don't meet up, it will be via post! Sweets!

This year, to make things more christmas, more jolly, i went to learn how to make gingerbread man so that we could have a "Decorate your gingerman" competition. At first everyone was weary about how to go about decorating it, but after a while all the creative juices were flowing and it was super fun. As we decorate, we were eating the decorations too, to the point we were short of M&Ms. Of course we got to name our gingerbread man too!
Now, I will have to think of ways to bake a piglet shape so that when we gather next year for mooncake festival, we are going to have a "Decorate your piglet"!

With all the sugar rush and calories from the yummy food, it was time to exercise! Some played mahjong and the rest played Wii. It was real fun playing Wii with the girls! Just we know why it was great fun!

Good times are short lived, but it will always remain in our hearts and memories. Pity our party was on a Sunday, had it been on Saturday, we definitely would have partied all night thru'!

Our 2010 resolution would be to celebrate all our birthdays together!
