Gung Hai Fat Choy!!!




It's time for Chinese New Year!! 2008 is the Year of the Rat. We are gearing up for some CNY festivities around here. I have some rat decorations, we are making some home-made mooncakes, a stir-fry and egg rolls. I have also been doing alot of thinking about this and have adapted some of the traditions to more easily fit in with our family. We don't have any real fireworks or firecrackers but I am making a firework inspired mobile to hang in the house and we are also making some other crafts and things. It should be fun. Evelyn has really been looking forward to this.


Here is a link to some info on Chinese New Year of you are interested.....
