We are leaving the year of the Tiger and entering the year of the Rabbit. It is a special time for the Asian family to get together to celebrate and welcome the new year in hopes of good fortune, prosperity and good health.
My wife has been busy with spring cleaning over the last few weeks, and she started her baking marathon last week. She has churned out so many wonderful cookies for the New Year celebration. The cookies melt in your mouth and it is so hard to stop even after eating a dozen! Here are some of the cookies she made:
Pineapple Tart
Dragon Cookies
Semperit Cookies
Almond Cookies
Durian Tart
Here is a picture of me enjoying the cookies — hmmm, maybe not — saliva, stuffed mouth, crumbs, just not a pretty sight. 
It is time to let loose and celebrate for the next fifteen days. Yes, the celebration last for fifteen day! Isn’t it a great way to kick-start the new year?
I hope the coming year brings you and your family prosperity and good health.
Gong Xi Fa Cai.
