Celebrate the birth of Anderson...

To celebrate the birth of Anderson, we are inviting you and your family to our house for "so mien"(threadlike noodle) aka "misua" or "long life noodle" or "麵線" this Saturday (04/11/09) from 11:00am to 2:00pm.

Grandma "Miranda's mom" will be the cook and we would love to see you there. Please let us know if you are coming so that we know how much of those noodles to prepare.... If you don't know where I live, I guess that means you are not invited :) But, you can still enjoy the picture below...

In Foochow culture, we invite friends and relatives for "so mien" when a new baby is born, and this is usually held within the first month, some as early as the first 2 weeks. The only dish to be served will be "so mien" with chicken soup and eggs. So, don't expect a feast... :) but you can eat as much noodle as you want.... and of course eggs....
