CNY is another 2 weeks but we have already completed our shopping. No shopping for new clothes this year since I just came back from BKK in Nov and bought tons of clothes, not just for me but for hb & baby Titus as well.
Snacks wise, I made our own pineapple tarts & honeycomb biscuits this year. These are my favorite snacks for CNY and making it myself means i get to control the sugar level etc which is great! It is also fresher since I don't reuse the oil like what the outside sellers do.
First round of shopping begins at Rochor market level 2. Bought my fav pork floss rolls & hubby's fav roasted cashew nuts. Last year we bought too much, about 2kg of pork floss roll and even after CNY, I have still not finished them. Hence, this time round I only bought half KG each.
Second round was at Woodlands industrial area. Many food suppliers are located there. We bought seafood, Ba Gua, sauces from Hai's and egg rolls etc. Prices are slightly cheaper than supermarkets and since we're there, we just bought whatever we need.
Third round ended at Sheng Siong for the usual groceries and drinks.
That rounds up our CNY Shopping, we did make a trip to Chinatown just to soak in the CNY mood. Bought the traditional Da Zhong Guo nian gao there. Titus is happy to be there since its his first CNY, he must be happy thinking about all the ang pows he is getting.
