New Year's Eve

I was bored cos the only programme today was reunion dinner at my grandma's place.

So I decided to entertain myself. Set out to make melt in your mouth lemon biscuits. But something else unexpected turned out, cos I mistook soft wheat flour for wholemeal flour! Such a booboo! Anyway, here's what happened.

Neverthelessly, I put it into the oven, as cookies.


Then I decided that they might make better muffins.


And so here they are. At least they look presentable! Taste-wise, well, if you like oatmeal, you will love it. If not, dunk it into hot chocolate, I think it'll be yummy.



And so I went for reunion dinner. Here's the spread, without the steamboat yet.


One of the best yu shengs I have eaten these years. Why? Cos there was SO MUCH sashimi! Woohoo!!



But there was lots of vegetarian food too. My fav was the mushroom satay (totally yummilicious!).
Hmm, but vegetarian food also set me off thinking. Why bother to make food that resembles meat when it's supposed to be vegetarian? Where is the 'sincerity'? If it's so tempting to eat meat, then just eat meat lah! Why bother faking it?! Oh, and the most mind-blowing one... "curry potato" (made of koniyaku) and "fried egg" (made of bean curd skin). *Look of disbelief* Aren't potatoes and eggs ALREADY vegetarian?? Why FAKE it?!! Oh man.... *shrug*

Comments:
Eggs not considered vegetarian coz it comes from an animal.

Reminds me of 1 Cor 23-33.

"whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God."

=)
 
But my vegetarian relatives eat egg. So why bother faking it? Heh.

Faking food doesn't sound like it glorifies God huh...
