CNY 2014

As with past years,
this year's CNY was a messy and noisy affair but in the best way possible.
I've always loved CNYs since young and nothing is ever going to change that!

Except maybe in future when I'm married and have to start handing out those red packets....
HAHAH.
But still a long way to go before that so I shall enjoy my last few years as a 'kid',
receiving ang baos and feasting on all the awesome goodies!

Every year's CNY begins with me and Jolene churning out tons and tons of pineapple tarts.
Not to sell but to give away!
Online sales are always at peak during this period as well,
so we were as busy as busy gets!

I'm never particular about food during CNY because the people I eat with matter so much more.

We take the same photos at the same places every year but we still take them anyway.
:)
My dad detests having his photos taken so we usually make him do so during CNY.
With all the relatives around,
he will usually oblige albeit grudgingly.
Hahaha.

Porcelain Off Shoulder Dress from TTR, heels from Nastygal, bag from Sandy Trove

And of course I wore TTR for CNY!
;)
Specially kept this dress for the first day of CNY because I really really love the prints and the off shoulder design.
Hehe.

My little cousin who is really good at posing!
Hehe so cute!
She even knows how to take a photo without looking at the camera,
such a natural.
Hahah I wonder who taught her that???

The second day of CNY is usually spent at my house so I don't have as much time to take photos because we have to do massive crowd control + making sure everyone gets something to drink + cook edible food for the guests!
LOL.

Last CNY outfit for 2014!

And it's all over now...
I miss CNY.
Can CNY 2015 come already?
:'(

Been really busy lately because we're looking for a new office space for TTR,
thinking of revamping the website,
upgrading the system,
getting things up and running,
and planning for the first work trip of 2014.

Have updated some stuff on my Dayre too,
read me at www.dayre.me/joycesayshello!


Will update this space again real soon!
