Pre-Thanksgiving Dinner !

Serene and Topher hosted yet another marvelous dinner party last Saturday evening with some very exotic different kind of thanksgiving food. We started off with Squash soup with ginger, then off to a Miso glazed carrots and then we had the traditional Turkey and Stuffing - but specially crafted for our international crowd. For the stuffing we had Brioche bread with chorizo, and the Turkey was cooked in Red Thai Curry all of that on top a nicely done steamed Sticky rice with peanuts and spices. Had a great time catching up with everybody and having some delicious food.. Thanks Serene and Topher !!

Topher and Serene's Party...

After the Mauritian dinner in Sunnyvale, I went to another party in Sunnyvale too. I was getting my good dose of Sunnyvale. I had not been to Sunnyvale in months and Sunnyvale used to be my home when I first moved to the Bay Area. Good Memories ! Serene and Topher were celebrating being pregnant, and it was the same time, the occasion for Mitch's and Joel's Birthday. Was great to catch up with all the friends and have some good times. Check out the last 3 pictures.. it's from the automatic 3 shots picture :) I have no idea how i got from sitting down to being up in the air !!

Bay Area Mauritian Dinner Party at Turmeric Indian Restaurant in Sunnyvale

As usual Caroline organized a dinner to celebrate the New Year for the Mauritian Community in the bay area. We had all voted for Indian Food in the South Bay and we picked Turmeric in Sunnyvale. It was a buffet and had great food. I loved their Goat Curry with bones, Malabar Fish Curry and all the other delicacies. They had so much food, that I did not even try it all out. We had a good turnout - about 30 Mauritians - this time though lots of kids ! It was great catching up with all the Mauritian folks !

Serene and Topher's housewarming party..

Serene and Tofer moved into a new house in sunnyvale and they had their housewarming party last weekend. Below are some snaps from the 'Cocoa Casa' housewarming party.

I was impressed by the doors - Topher has installed a biometric device to scan your fingerprints to open/close the door.

We had a game where we all got a piece of paper to write nouns ,verbs, abjectives etc.. at the end of the night, we used these random words to fill in a love letter. It came out pretty interesting. Attached is a pic of the complete love letter.
