Now, I have just told you that she doesn't eat lunch except if she goes out to lunch with friends but today is truly an exception.
For lunch came to us! She was just about to go and make herself a hot drink about ten minutes ago when plop.. a WhatsApp message arrived on her mobile.
It was from Tereza who was up in Chinatown celebrating her Chinese birthday as it is the year of the Pig.
The message read "do you like crispy seaweed and chicken with cashew nuts, if so, it will be on your door in 5".. 'is the Pope a Catholic' she thought to herself as she tapped out her reply.
And sure enough.. a few minutes later, she opened our front door to find a bag hanging on it.
"Oh slurp GeeGee, look what we have to eat, I'll put the fish back into the fridge for tomorrow and we'll have this delicious food instead, what a treat, how kind of Tereza to do this".
I think it is because the first three years of her life were spent in Malaya - as it was called in those days - that she has a liking for food from that part of the world. Vietnamese, Cambodian, Malay and Chinese cuisines are what she absolutely loves and how she didn't stop to eat a bowl of yumyum at the Vietnamese food market yesterday is beyond me!
She's found her chopsticks, made a hot drink of ginger and lemon and we'll settle down to eat this delicious gift..
And hope you will go and eat some Chinese food or make a stir fry at home with delicious spices and celebrate..
The year of the Pig.. oink oink!
