Big Bro's Birthday

Tonight we have a birthday celebration for my big bro's 56. I cannot remember the last time we have had a b.d. celebration for him so we are particularly happy on his behalf that we get this chance to do it for him. He has been a big bro through and through; always looking out for us. At the same time he can be quite regimental, that's what make him big bro. Every family that has a big bro somehow experience the same spirit.

The dinner is at All People Burwood East. SM baked a Swiss butter cake and it is lovely, light, buttery and not too sweet. We enjoy the food and the service is great. The ambiance is typical of a Chinese restaurant although not noisy. SM is challenged by my big sis and they both drink a "bottoms up" of sauvignon blanc just before we finish for the night. It's a first for SM. And she does not even like sauvignon blanc. She says she gives respect to my big sister. Oh well....



Cousins Andrew and Jack



Mom was discharged from St G yesterday and is able to join us


My 大哥 gets a 24cm Le Creuset cast iron casserole from us. He always wanted this but did not get himself one. He is always generous to others but stingy on himself. Enjoy big bro.
