As I did not make it to the USA (again) this time, we had our traditional Christmas Eve party at home. As usual, Sun overdid herself, making the best turkey in the world plus many other dishes. The only complaint was – that most ate too much. Sun got precious help from our two maids (one actually works somewhere else but always comes to visit and help us), our Xiao Li and Xiao Xiao Li.
We reached only 35 people as a group was stranded in the snow on its way from Inner Mongolia, other were caught in last minute work and others had their car out of action. Anyway we had an international crowd from Belgium, Holland, France, UK, Canada, Hong Kong, USA as well as a group from Israel plus the usual Chinese friends.
Seems all the action took place in the kitchen, the battle of the turkey. For the rest of the evening I was too busy cutting turkey, playing barman and drinking my fair share. The empty bottles count not be counted. Little was left of the 13 pound USA turkey plus 4Kg of stuffing. So, only a few pics, maybe later I get more.
Thanks to all, by midnight the whole office was cleaned up, all furniture and desks back to their original position!
Thanks to all for the company, the deserts, the many bottles of wine and other.
