Mummies! I am VERY HAPPY..
EJ's party went very well yesterday. Started at 4pm, ended at 1030pm.. but some relatives were still in my house playing mahjong till 1am.. but ok la, EJ slept a little later at 1130pm (usual bedtime 11pm). I feel very lucky and happy cos everything turned out well.
1. Weather - was raining till 3+pm.. at first i thot cham liao cos my party is outdoor at the poolside. But it stopped raining just before party starts.. guests start eating before 5pm.. and because the weather was cool (from the rain), they could all sit at the wooden benches and tables surrounding the pool area to eat.. so even tho the function room is small, not everyone needs to squeeze inside.. Yeah!
2. Buffett - the food was simply DELICIOUS! Delihub (Neo Garden), I would give 2 thumbs up! My guests were all very impressed with the quality of the food.. The chicken curry was really good. Mutton rendang was good.. and i chose bur-bur cha-cha as dessert, which was also marvellous. I had leftover food but because about 10 guests last min didn't turn up.. but it's ok.. cos I would very much rather have excess food then not enough food. I catered for 55 pple (expecting 60+) but abt 50 pple turned up. Yeah!
3. PG Cake - my cake was GOOD! the Lychee Martini is really nice. Starfruit, maybe because i have never eaten it before, so i felt it was very nice. The Triple Choc is also nice. I actually let EJ eat the Lychee Martini one.. hahah.. but just gave him a bit to taste and he likes it. My cake was just about enough for 50 pple. Had a few slices left over which was tau-pau by my cousin. Yeah!
4. Decoration & Loot Bags - i had a friend to help me put up the banners, streamers and ballons. Cos the function room was small, so there wasn't really that much to decorate.. I didn't have any helium balloons.. but overall effect is still nice (simple and cozy). Hmm, my 20 loot bags for kids were not enough! The kids were all happy with the bubbles.. haha.. all playing around the pool.. hope i don't get complained by other residents (cos not supposed to step near pool area with shoes etc.. some were washing their hands in the pool). Yeah!
5. EJ - was quite well-behaved.. no major crying or cranky.. he was a bit tired during cut-cake (6pm) but then he didn't want to take his afternoon nap cos so many pple around.. but ok la, he wasn't cranky or overly stimulated.. he managed to have a nap at 8pm.. until abt 9pm.. then he could still see and play with my guests who left at 1030pm. Yeah!
Ok.. sorrie for my super-long post.. Just wanted to share my joy. Thanks for reading this if u made it thru the post!
