X'mas at Alfred and Doris' place : Dec-15

For at least five years now, Alfred and Doris have been very kind to invite our family over during Christmas Eve to feast at their place.  This X'mas gathering adds a different taste to our regular Chinese New Year gatherings, with Western food and presents replacing ang-baos.  Such regular gatherings are no easy tasks and require persistent efforts and patience.  Nonetheless, family bonds are often built over these tireless efforts and patience, and we are grateful that we are part of these gatherings.
