Sunday, March 19, 2006
Last friday, Giselle kindly invited me to her dad's 50th birthday party, or rather i wanted so much for her to bring me along. heehee. Thanks Giselle. Alright, im sure you guys will think that it won't be interesting to attend a 50th bday party BBBUTTTTTT you are wrong! I'm so impressed by the way it is run and the preparation work that the family did! 
The 3sisters prepared a lovely bday present (photoframe themed "from little gals to young women - all because of you" and a touching poem) and decorated the basement with balloons and photo collage of the dad's 50 golden years. Oh man, i feel guilty at that point in time. better go home and get my bro and sis to 'WAKE UP' and learn!!! At the end of the day, all they ask for is just their father's appreciation... emotional scene...
Guests start to come in and check out the amount of coats and shoes 'FOR SALE' !!!
The usual practice for their party is: hug around to say hi, chat while enjoying some drinks/wine, banana chips and baked nacho. Afterwhich, it'll be cake-cutting session and the daughters demanded all 50candles to be lighted. Strawberry shortcake.. wooo (*yes mavis, i take strawberries)
Alright, eating time!!! ok, there're lotsa curry. i tried almost everything since there isnt lamb nor beef. haha. didnt have such wonderful home-cooked food for awhile... yummylicious! CHECK out how the food is nicely displayed on the table and the presentation of the salad. so professionally done. Curry chicken, lasagna, salad, curry pork, curry spinach.. ok, basically, lotsa curry with different kind of spices.
ok, the woman behind all these hard work haha! she did all these by herself... her effort indeed paid off as it's obvious that the guests enjoyed the food. oh by the way, we had dinner at 10:30pm.
After dinner, the birthday 'boy' will lead the adults for a game. i thought it was funny initially bcos my dad will neva do this. BUT, they were saying that it is normal to host a few games 
during parties. Giselle's dad is rather whacky... haha.. did almost everything that the guest dared-him-to (shan't go to details) and face being dirtied by cake on-purpose by the children. i think my dad will punch me if i ever do this.
There are still dessert served: fruit salad, pudding with jell-o, mango pudding and the birthday cake. wowowow. good food keep streaming in..
By the time the party ended, it's already 1:30am. ok, time for a gd sleep aft eating so much... once again, thanks D'souza-family for such a wonderful experience. heehee
