The Different Faces of Me

Its December 31 and its my little brothers' birthday. Every year, we celebrate this event with our family. This is one of the days where we can all get together and see our cousins who lives far away from us. This is also the chance to celebrate the New Year together, since we can't celebrate this at night, we do it on lunch time. (mahirap kase sa gabi dahil marami na nagpapaputok eh. mahihirapan sila umuwi.)

I prepared and cooked Honey Gingered Chicken ( you can see this in my previous post.. naluto ko na ito eh.. maraming beses na.. sobrang mabenta sa family ko toh!) and Salisbury Ribs. I am suppose to cook the Fried Fish with Chili Pineapple Sauce kaso lang pagod na ako.. so we decided to steam it nalang para mas mabilis. We're running out of time na kasi padating na ang mga bisita at hindi pa ako nakakaligo.. bihis.. haha! Ryan, cooked his Yakisoba (nasobrang mabentang mabenta din sa amin! haha ako pa nga ngrequest niyan). My mom because very lazy in cooking since I started to cook so her share for the party was the Buko Salad. My Lola cooked the Seafood Palabok and my Aunt Rosie cooked "ngo yong", it is a chinese dish made of chicken, pork, mushrooms, shrimps, etc.

So the first set of pictures is the preaparation:
