I thought Father's Day was on 13 June. So, I gathered all my family members for a home-cooked dinner and discovered that I got the date wrong. Well, consider it as early celebration then. Cooking for 7 adults and 2 toddlers without a maid and having to look after 1 boisterous toddler at the same time is no joke and can only be done once in a while...

The dish on the top right corner - melon squash or 丝瓜. I eat this for every breakfast when I was in China.

Fish slices with assortment of vegetables/mushrooms

Grilled chicken wings - this always receive rave reviews

All the dishes on the table - the black soup in the bowl is 八珍汤 but I think it did not go well with the taste palate for the males in the family esp. Aaron.
