Family Meal!

We had family dinner on sunday at Siew's place and I found it quite amusing that the ladies were in the kitchen preparing the meals, while all the guys were in the living room lounging around and watching tv. Whenever one of the ladies asked any of us to do something, we would just get up and help them. The scene reminds me of some really traditional family gathering scene, where the ladies would be bustling around, trying to get all the world done, while the men would be sitting round talking and "settling stuff". Nothing of this is abnormal, but I guess I never would have imagined a scene such as thing in my family. haha.

Well... to give the men some credit, dad killed the crabs, raymond(siew's husband) cleaned the toilet which was stained with crab blood and poop, mingyao(mei's husband) drove mei, and I took the caps off the beer bottles. Someday, the guys should do the cooking. It should be quite a feast since the guys know how to cook as well. :)
