Yifan and I share a common love for tech gadgets. While his "love" encompasses things ranging from HDTVs to the latest GPS navigation system, I mostly lust after cameras, and the accessories.

So for his birthday, I got him this:




And the Christmas present he got for himself was:




As for me, I already have my eye on the Canon SD 870, but am still taking my own sweet time placing the online order.

More Feasting

Yifan had his company Christmas party back in Oklahoma last Friday, and I was invited too!











Unlike the typical Christmas spread of turkey and honey-baked ham, we had barbequed meats and salads. Last year's food was better, though. :-)



Merry Christmas, everyone!!

Mavs Vs Suns

We trooped down to American Airlines Center last night for a game between Dallas Mavericks and Phoenix Suns. The teams were pretty evenly matched, but in the end the Mavs won 108-105. Dang!

Some pictures from the night:

showing patriotism before the game kicked off









Time flew by quickly, and before we knew it, it was half-time, and time for more photo-taking.








Mavs gearing up for the second half







Aside from the excitement that you get when you watch the game LIVE, I love going to the matches for the silly clips they show during time-outs.

I can't believe Yifan didn't snap a shot of the final score!





Will we be back this time next year?

What Every Kitchen Needs

Just read:




I know I've always loved cooking, but I never knew just how much until Yifan bought me this spanking new Wusthof 16cm Cook's Knife.



He paid an obscene amount of money for this, but trust me, a good knife makes all the difference.

For the longest time, I struggled with the chopping and dicing of meats and vegetables with the baby knife I had. The Wusthof, however, makes food preparation a breeze. I should have gotten this a long time ago!

Party Season Begins

We attended a Christmas party organised by one of Yifan's customers at Hilton Dallas, and though I came home with sore feet and an aching back, we had loads of fun!

Some pics from the night:





















The night would have been sweeter if we had also won the tickets to Las Vegas... :-)
