year of the dragon

Happy Chinese New Year!

didn't want to miss the boat and not spread the festive love around. it's now day three of the new year! it's definitely going to be a good year, be it in the western calendar or the chinese calendar although i'm pretty sure it being the year of the dragon helps too ;p

reunion dinner was major awes-yum! my mother is a superstar, managing to cook 8 dishes that night!

fireworks was in abundance on new year's eve too that some started blasting their firecrackers at 2 in the morning! +___+ my mother says it cause they're inviting the god of prosperity (?) into their home. chinese culture is very fascinating and interesting but sometimes, it just boggles the mind the kinds of things that needs to be done in the name of tradition!

this week is pretty jam packed with dinners and visitations. just the right kind of busy, if you ask me!

Gong Hei Fatt Choy!!!
