冬至快乐 Happy “Tong Yun” Festival(Winter Solstice)
Today is chinese festival call 冬至(Dong Zhi).It is a very important day for chinese.I heard that it is suppose more important than chinese new year.I do not like the traditional 汤圆(Tang Yuan).I used to have "tang yuan" with soup which is sweet.After eating "tang yuan" meaning this year has over,so meaning you are one year older.I do not like to eat but forced to eat.So,i will count the number of "tang yuan" that i eat so that i wil not eat extra.For example,this year i am 18 years old(always 18.hahaha..),then i will only take 19 "tang yuan",so i grow a year older after eating it(didn’t eat also grow old lah…hehehe).
When i came to KL,our pastor cooked a different "tang yuan" which taste very nice.It is eaten with with soup which is not sweet.It was very delicious.I remember he put it some meat,white carrot,dried scallop,dried prawn,etc to boil the soup…yummy…miss that..
These few years i was in KL,so no one forces me to eat "tang yuan" but i feel like eating now..hhmmm…human always like that one ya…heehehe….anyone?courier it for me?hehehe…
