Hse warming for a hse not my own

Hmm... organizing a hse warming is a brand new experience for me this time;
its not like i nv did a hse warming before,
but this was a totally new experience...

I had shifted in this new place for like a mth or so now,
we are nicely settled in with some technical issues;
but we are settled in.

I had suggested a hse warming party for the place for a few reasons;
To thank those who had helped us in getting this place,
To thank those we had helped to be our translator between our landlord and us,
To thank those who had helped us in one way or another since we arrived to this land.

I sort of dictator the whole thing, cos i was pretty excited abt it!
The only disappointing thing was like they seems to jus flow along,
i think neither of them were for the idea of hse-warming bah...
Or it could just be that i jus dictator everything?
Anyway, was quite upset, but then heck care in the end,
cos i figured if its something i wanna do then i go ahead and do... DUN COMPLAIN!

Firstly, the theme was sort of like a sandwich tea party, cos i know i dun really have the ability to provide a lunch or dinner meal to all... So sandwich party means the foodie all has to link to bread in one way or another...
  1. Bread - Ordinary loaf of bread & some Pita Bread. (Pita was a great choice! But it must be served HOT!!!)
  2. Spicy Tuna Fillings (The Spicy din come out, cos i forgot the chilli. Tried to salvaged by adding herbs/spices, but the spicy-ness still not there. *pout*)
  3. Egg Mayo Fillings (Simple mashed hard boiled eggs with wasabe mayos andsweet paprika spices.)
  4. Butter Mushroom in Cream (Something we tasted at the cafe restaurant, and succeeded in making it on our own. Good with bread and cheese then toast... yum...)
  5. Soya Chicken (This is something which i jus saw my mum and grandma did at home, i came here anyhow hump-thumb wan... Great to hear everyone LOVED it! *Proud*)
  6. Chips & Nachos (Nothing special, just buy from supermarts wan...)
  7. Venetta Ice Cream (In the end forgot abt it and never serve... muahahahah)
  8. Beer & Wine & Champ (Plenty left in our fridge for our own enjoyment!!! *happy&)
  9. Soft drinks & Fruit Jucie
  10. Homemade Barley Drink (All thanks to Uncle PC & Ivan)

As one of the hosts i know i shld be serving and entertianing our guests, but i was really busy preparing and cooking the food lar... Hey... not easy oki.... i started preparing the foodie the nite b4 until 3am plus in the morning, while my hse mate go chiong until 5am... winner... no one help me...

I admit i kinda like to not socialize cos i also dunno wat to say... really a big lesson on hospitality man... I did enjoy the cooking and i also did some entertaining lar... cos my kitchen is open concept one and can oversee to living room and dinning area. ^_^

I'm really glad all that is over, its good to celebrate that everyone left with a glass of champ and plenty of chicken wings and rest our feet on the coffee table! ^_^

Ps. You all think i super socialable some more, wow liew... now i know i am not lor... i also dunno why i become like dunno wat to say... then just use my mega watt smile @ them and go yar.. yar.. yar.. & more yar and more thanks and more yar......
