Grandma's death anniversary

Seventh day of Lunar New Year is 'Ren Zi' which mean birthday for everyone and at the same time it was my maternal grandma death anniversary. A lot of my relatives and friends of Ah Ma will come over to my cousin’s house for praying and have lunch together; roughly, there will be 30 people. My cousin had to prepared all the dishes and offerings in a day advance. This is a time for catch up with each other and also bringing the bond closer.

Catching up with each other while folding joss paper. By the way, the maid wasn't Buddhist but she did a great job in folding the joss paper.

Taking turn to burn the joss paper. Beginning with the eldest to the youngest,be careful, guys.

After all the praying, it was time for big feast. Yummy....enjoyed the food prepared by my cousin.
