God of Heaven

Last Friday we held a Bai Tian Gong session at my own house. For the past few years we had simple ceremony, but this year, we invited close friends over to join us with the prayers. And for the first time Papa-M ordered suckling pig to thank the God of Heaven. 



















 A table full of fruits, praying kueh and the meat dishes wiith sugar canes were offered.


































I also cooked misuah in chicken soup for my guests. An elderly relative told me that the Hokkien believes in eating misuah during the 9th day of CNY would bring longetivity. My house was full of kids and adults, enjoying the late night supper, whisky, CNY cookies, bak kua and oh ya...not forgeting the nian gao dessert I made.


Party ended roughly at 2am plus.....
Our next year resolution - to get bigger roast pig !!
