Halloween

A day worth of writing a post (or a day of slacking off?=P).

Last Friday we have randomly decided to celebrate Halloween. At first I thought it would just be a normal dinner gathering, with the main course of PUMPKINS eg pumpkin rice, pumpkin soup and etc.

Well, it turned out to be a feast for us.=D. With the enthusiasm of Qian Hui who searched for the online Halloween recipes, we became more engrossed in setting up the menus and getting all the ingredients. (We need in total of 20 plus ingredients just for a dinner!)

Tada~Here’s our “ambitious” menu. =)

1.     1.  Fruit salad

2.     2.Mini pizza with mushroom, hotdog and cheese topping. (It was tasty~)

3.     3.Pumpkin Rice with Octopus deco

4.     4.Pumpkin Soup

5.    5.Fried Eggs

6.    6.Grilled chicken with cheese topping

7.    7.Little Monsters (mini hotdogs with cheese)

.      8.Baked Potatoes

9.    9.Little Ghosts (toasted bread with whipped cream on top)

10  10.Gigantic Mouth (apple with almonds used as teeth, look at the picture below =P)

11  11.Orange Jelly with pieces of pineapples in it (This is so cute~)

12  12.   The last but not least- the not edible PUMPKIN!=P.

Gosh, now only I realized we have eaten so many CHEESE..>.<…need to do extra exercise after this. 

It turned out not bad after all. Some of the foods were amazing for us. A minor problem was we were too enjoyable in cooking all the food till we could not finish all. It was really A LOT.XD.11 dishes for 6 persons! In the end some of them need to take some home as tomorrow’s breakfast or lunch.=P

I never celebrate Halloween before in Malaysia. It’s our 1^st year in oversea and final year of our uni’s life. That was the reason we made the effort to prepare for this. Basically I’ve spent whole day to prepare for this dinner. We have started to work in the kitchen since afternoon and only get our dinner serve at 7pm.XD. But the outcomes were satisfying. It’s a day worth of remembering.

Kinda exhausted now as 3 of us did the cleaning of kitchen after the feast and it was really tiring. The stove was the hardest part to clean off and fridge turned out to be the second hardest.  I better skip this boring part.

We bought some Halloween stuffs for fun today. A packet of fake moustaches, 3 hats and a little pumpkin light.=). Here are some of the photos for today.

From today onwards, the time zone difference between UK and Malaysia will be 8 hours. I must get use to this, haven’t reset my time of watch yet. So today we’ve earn extra 1 hour in UK. (25 hours per day? I can’t sense the difference.)

Going to bed soon. Good night peeps. Good morning Malaysia. Thanks everyone who have contributed for the great dinner just now.=). 


p/s: Sorry Serene, I don't have your picture in my camera.>.<
