UNLIKE MOST WHO PRETEND NOT TO KNOW THEIR AGE (HMM, APPLIES TO ME TOO), LILLIAN TOO ANNOUNCED HER 70TH BIRTHDAY LOUD AND PROUD! HAPPY BIRTHDAY LILLIAN TOO THE WORLD'S GREATEST FENG SHUI MASTER!
If someone else claims this title and I wish to avoid any argument, I can safely say Lillian Too is world's greatest female author in English on feng shui! This covers all caveats!
Around 130 dearest and nearest friends and relatives came to wish Lillian Too a happy birthday and the birthday girl was visibly touched on various occasions when she recalled some of her friends have known her for 50 years!
Of course the night was clear and glorious and not a drop of rain fell to dampen the festive mood! It was a proper sitdown dinner in her garden which was nicely carpeted so walking was a breeze. We were served delicious Malaysian food as waiters walked around with wine and whisky for those desirous of such libations.
The evening started with a lion dance with prancing red and gold lions paying homage to Lillian Too and hubby Too Wan Jin. Dinner and dancing followed and there was a special performance by Juliana Lee and her gal pals and even her husband. The ladies wore red gowns and danced to 'Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend' though Lillian Too was resplendent in a spectacular ruyi imperial green jade necklace and matching necklace from Winnie Sin of Rafflesia Pearl Centre at ParkRoyal arcade.
Those unable to attend in person sent videos of themselves wishing Lillian Too a happy birthday. Then came the highlight---the cake cutting ceremony!
After thanking everyone warmly (I think I saw tears in her eyes), Lillian Too passed the microphone to the irrepressible and lively Carmel Greenwood to recite a new Happy Puja which has never been heard before. The 2 Rinpoche were invited to join Lillian Too, her husband Too Wan Jin and Carmel Greenwood.
First Carmel took a deep breath before intoning 'Om Padme Mani Hum' for as long as possible...and then bursting into unrestrained laughter that reverberated to at least 5 bungalows up and down the street! This was the Happy Puja! And the 2 Rinpoche smiled and nodded their approval!
Most were surprised when Lillian Too wore a black dress instead of red as expected. But there was a reason--2016 lacks Water and black (or darkest blue) is most potent rather than the usual sky-blue! Every guest was given a present and the ribbon was black, the same color as Lillian Too's dress!
Lillian Too's birthday party was held just a day after her annual Feng Shui Extravaganza at Istana Hotel grand Mahkota Ballroom.
EVERY GUEST WAS GIVEN A PRESENT FROM LILLIAN TOO! SO SWEET TO RECEIVE A GIFT FROM BIRTHDAY GIRL! IT WAS HER BIRTHDAY BUT WE ALL GOT A PRESENT!
