emma turns 1 month. the dinner.

Yesterday, Daddy Elvis made a pretty last minute decision to invite a few of his friends over for dinner - in celebration of Baby Emma's First Month! Before that, we didnt exactly plan to "celebrate". (FYI, Elvis thinks it's silly/boring/tiring to have a "big celebration" for kids. He dislikes attending kids' birthday parties although he himself LOVES TO PARTY at clubs, karaoke etc.)

He flipped some cookbooks and decided to attempt to cook pasta - Seafood Marinara. Fortunately, Awfully Chocolate could make an actual-day delivery. Then, Elvis rushed to the supermarket in the afternoon to get the ingredients. He came back an hour later (!!!) and wanted to go to the Sogo supermarket to get more (or rather "better" and fresher) seafood. Since time was not on our side, i told him to go to the wet market nearby to take a look instead. He came home happy and started cooking...

The Menu:

Appetizer - Grilled Chicken Wings

Main Course - Seafood Marinara

Dessert - Awfully Chocolate choc/banana Cake

served with free flow of White Wine

The guests stared pouring in at 7pm... Actually, it's only 4 people lah - Ann, Pick, Raymond & his girlfriend LiuQing. We always cannot invite more people over for dinner becoz we dont have enough plates and cutlery. Haha! As it turns out, everyone LOVED the Seafood Marinara! Phew~

Like all babies first month celebration, The Baby is always sleeping away... So, brother Joel had fun playing with his beloved friends, including blowing the candle on Emma's cake! ;)

Happy First Month, Baby Emma.

We love you.
