Mother's Day│Black Kettle

Thought of making this post a sentimental post of how precious my mom is to me but nahhh, this post will basically be a simple post about Mother's Day dinner together with the family. (except that it's not whole cause of not having sister around again on this year's Mother's Day)   

FYI, Mother's Day always fall on a Sunday, just in case you don't know. 

Boyfriend and I would like to treat my mom for dinner however, bf's family usually have family night every Sunday so we was thinking not to do it on Sunday since my side of the family was okay with any days. 

So yeah, we did it on Saturday night, the day before Mother's Day. Heh

It's a pretty simple evening with my mom and my mom. Hah Dad decided to be a mom himself too on that night cause he sometimes did what normally a mother would do. (which is Housework) Hehe

We had our short dinner and our sweet little after-dinner-dessert-session at

Black Kettle @ 105, Beach Street, Georgetown 10200, Penang

Soft Shell Crab Burger

River Prawn Spaghetti Aglio Olio

Spaghetti Green Curry Lamb

We ordered three dishes to share cause four of us are all small eaters.

Definitely couldn't finish if we add another extra one.

and we're expecting desserts later on so not too much for dinner session.

Desserts time

Black and White
(I presume it's chocolate cheese cake)

Hot Cappuccino 

Foreign Guinness Stout

Scones with Strawberry Jams

Dinner and Dessert Session was on both of us.

My Bae and me

Thanks babe on behalf of my mom. Heh

That's all happened on Saturday evening, not the real day for Mother's Day.

So on the real Mother's Day, I decided to bake something she would love to eat. Of course I did asked her what she wanted and yes, she requested for her all-time favorite (as of now) Blueberry Cheese Cake.

On Sunday morning which is Mother's Day, just after mom left for work, I started baking.

Had some help from boyfie too like washing some dishes etc. Heh Tq.

Prepping and baking all done in about 2 hours time.

(Watching movie + enjoying the baking process)

Then it's the oven operating time. 

Cheese cake out from oven and let it cool down before I could top it up with mom's fav blueberry filling.

It's a simple and delicious recipe I'm using.

(Ps, not the same recipe I used to bake/blog it before)

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY, MOM !

Thank you, mom for everything.

I Love You.

Kisses,

The Eve of 2016

31st December, Thursday

Where did we went on that night? The same old place as usual. Heh

If you didn't know where, our night was spent at Penang Swimming Club located at Tanjong Bungah (just the same like last year)

This year's theme was "Flashback" 60's thru' 80's

Kinda more to the Elvis Presley time...

*Assume you didn't know I cheated on this entry's date, if you don't know what I meant, ignore this*

(I'm also gonna cheat on some coming few posts too actually, I gotta keep back on track on what I've missed. Hah so stay tune)

I'm not gonna blabber too much on this entry.

Lesser words to describe cause lesser pictures were taken on this occasion.

This year round they're having buffet style which most people were not very fond of it. Heard that their management had changed already so most things were different. Even the lucky draws were not that attractive. Their top few prizes were all wines, wines and wines!

Our luck on lucky draws were really not at a good timing lo hehe (should had gotten last year)

Anyways, we got picked from the lucky draws and as I said, most of their prizes are wines. So yeah, we get wine (blehh, I'm not very fond of it cause I don't enjoy drinking wine)

Say not gonna blabber so much but still did it. Hehe 

Okay okay now to pictures ! 

Sorry for this quality of picture. It's taken by iPhone6 Plus (not my camera) in a low light condition.

The set up for the dinner was not well managed too. It's quite far for the ones sitting far behind.

Last year was better. I suppose many would boycott this place next year if they don't market their improvements. Haha (Talk about marketing skills pula)

This year's decoration was very mild too compared to all the previous years'

No place for people to snap beautiful and lovely pictures to end the year 2015.

I was actually snapping the decorations but this cute guy here, Dextor thought I was capturing him.

So oh well, second picture make him the center of attention for this picture. Heh 

Cute right my mom? (bottom picture)

Do we dressed well and suitable enough for the theme? Got 60's thru' 80's feel not?

Aiya, mom why you close your eyes? 

Thought we would look taller in this angle haha

but I don't think so right? Fail attempt

This was just before the clock strikes 12 

We start counting down to the very last seconds of 2015 and to welcome the very start of 2016.

These 3 pictures were taken by iPhone 6 Plus too in low light so excuse the low quality pictures.

Welcoming 2016 with a Happy Family

Though the dinner location was not up to par but we enjoyed ourselves cause the most important thing is to have each other happily side by side on this special occasion.

This was what I treasured and will always treasure~

Loves,
