Today's 1 of my dear cousin's birthday!! He's now 20!! (Actually this post was meant for 15 Jan 2011,Saturday)Cheese platter, starting from 11 on the front plate and going clockwise, edam, brie & camembert!
Initially, at the start of the day, I was dreading having to meet the class girls up at a bar since I was so not keen on trying the shisha! I'd rather try the drinks instead =D Pina Coladas sound fantastic! I'd so love a beach holiday which involved snorkelling, clear waters & so on...but let's get back to the main topic! The outing was cancelled, much to my delight, and I went to my cousin's instead! Ate quite a fair bit of cheese, that's for sure...Had 2 helpings of spaghetti bolognese, topped with shredded parmesan cheese! Simply scrumptious! Tried some jap curry, which tasted kinda weird since she added some other ingredients like meat?
After dinner, I continued with dessert. Choc! Ate about 3 of the above =) Had 2 helpings of cheesecake(covered in strawberry jello & sliced strawberries), then proceeded to eat the cheese with the crackers, as seen in the 1st pic! Seated around the table were Callis, G, Raf, Dan, Ben & some aunts..! Tried all the cheeses...and camembert's awesome! That's my 1st time eating it, but I quite enjoyed the nutty, fruity flavour! Cheese platters are good =)
We drunk some red wine along with the cheese! It's a Los Vascos' Cabernet Sauvignon 2006 =) Of course, as usual, I had a little red wine since I'm pretty new to it. That's how little I drank, and the evidence's above! Haha!
Raf commented that all red wines tasted the same, which is so not true IMO...This bottle is ok I suppose, but I didn't enjoy all the sips! Only 1 sip was pretty good, but I don't remember how I tasted it...I actually liked it O.o The rest of the sips were terrible! Swished the wine like how people usually do to release the fragrance, of course, but I wonder what went wrong? Totally glad when I was done with my tiny amount =)
Look over there at the corner...CHEESECAKE!!! I was plenty stuffed since I was eating nonstop since 8.30pm =X If i remember correctly, we were watching hairspray on TV? Additionally, my cousin Raf commented on how to become a real ninja =X He still owes me some pics which he took on 31st DEC 2010!!! 
Heh, some of my female cousins remarked that I still looked pretty slim, even after all that eating lol! =S Luckily the cheesecake was light, but I'd have preferred the dense, baked cheesecake variety! Oh wait, the strawberry cheesecake earlier was delish too =) That'll be even better! Told them about the oreo cheesecake, and my mom continued the convo on that cake, so I hope that'll make it clear that I do DO things. Since people can't remember, I'LL HELP THEM TO REMEMBER. Tired of a few things, and setting things straight is always better, no?Grateful to have gone out! =D
