On the eve

Back to Christmas Eve. Hubby and I had a busy morning as we went out for errands for few hours. 

Hubby's beef cheese and hash brown burger

No dine-out for breakfast that day. I made burgers for breakfast.  Then I cleaned my garden a bit. Felt good to work out in the garden. After took my bath, hubby and I went out around 9am.

First stop was the bank. After that we made a stop in Aeon Mall. We did a last minute Christmas Eve shopping. Bought presents for the kids, some bedsheet sets (since on offer) and pre-packed food.

By then, it was almost 1130am, and we were hungry so we made a stop at this coffee shop. The only available stalls that operate were Malay fried noodle stall and laksa stall. Both of us went for the Malay fried noodle for lunch.

RM7 per plate

The fried noodle was nice and tasty but spicy. Really warmed up our tummy when consumed it. Lol. I love the way my fried egg like. Yolk was still runny and soft. 
Lovely soup

After lunch, we hopped over to a friend's house to collect her own rear free-range chickens. RM26 per kg, we bought 2. After that, we drove home, and the kids were preparing their own lunch by then. Cooked themselves noodle, while enjoyed it with sushi that we bought from Aeon Mall. 

Hubby and I were knocked out, too tired from going here and there. We took our afternoon nap for over an hour that day. My mum-in-law came and stayed with us the next day (Christmas Day), so we arranged her room after we woke up. 

In the evening, we had Western dinner. It has been a while since we had such, rice-less dinner. The roasted chicken was bought from Aeon Mall, so not much to prepare from my side.


Roasted chicken, jumbo chicken sausages and jumbo cheesy sausages, mashed potatoes and green and egg salad.

The kids had sleepover in the eldest's room, not sure what time they slept that night. I read some ebook while hubby had few drinks outside with friends. Occasionally, we would hear some fireworks at night.

That was how we spent our Christmas Eve.

Very nice way to spend Christmas Eve with an early start and a very fruitful day doing so many things. Wow! Your children can make their own meals now so you can have more time to yourself. Very good.
