last saturday, my sisters and i were invited to attend a surprise birthday party. we knew the birthday girl from our yoga TTC course. and we treated this party as a reunion. there were only 4 chinese in the house. the rest, French! hahaha. we didnt understand what they were talking about, but we enjoyed ourselves. the other guest were very friendly although we didnt really communicate with each other. happy to be there, enjoying the simple yet beautiful & yummy food!! and the cake was something new to us. it was called croquembouch , i dont know how to pronounce as i googled this. it was very sweet. and this is served on special occasion like birthdays, weddings, etc. traditional french dessert, we were told. drinking wine, enjoying the food bit by bit, from appetisers, to main course of paella, to traditional french dessert, ending with assorted fruit on satay stick & cake!! i want this kind of party for my birthday too! hahaha...
