~ 中元节 Dinner ~

My inlaws were being invited to the once a year "中元节 dinner" and the whole family tag along as we had a table to ourselves - free! As usual, auction is the main attraction of the whole event. The dinner started at around 8pm and while all of us were busy 'attacking' the food, others were more interested in auctioning for their 'fortune' items. Believe it or not... by purchasing these items, it will improves one's fortune or luck.

The other highlight of this event, is ..... donation. Before the start to even towards the end of the dinner, we have more than 5 people coming to us for donations at different time with different beneficiaries. I think we donated at least $30 tonight.

Food was not really fanatistic. I only like the cold dish and the fish. Had to leave for home after the 5th dish as it is really running late. Gladys is perspiring and sleeply while Denver has to go to school early tomorrow..... I am tired too... we headed for home..........
