We have our Wee reunion dinner at No. 40 tonight - Khoon sees the renovation for the first time, as do some of the nephews. I don't think that they have much of an attachment to this house, Pam's kids hardly spend any time here. Shing is curious as usual, he wanders arounds and looks at the rear garden as well - he is genuinely a hands-on person. During dinner, there is a lot that is said (questions asked and answered) and much more which is left unsaid - tonight's dinner is a rare occasion because I am at the table. There are many more which I (we) have not been invited to, they have their reasons for not even inviting me. In return, I will organise and plan more dinners like this in the future, especially if Pam is in town.
The highlight of the evening, I manage to replicate (somewhat) my grandmother's nyonya chap chai
