Katy got a hongbao from Kung Kung and Poh Poh and one from Mama and Dada. In lieu of real fireworks, she got a packet of our current family favourite chocolate - Firecracker from Chuao. It has pop candy in it and chillis, so you have a spicy bite of chocolate with pops and fizzes on your tongue!
Katy loves giving too so she made a little hongbao for her Mama and Dada too! Guai haizi!
Unfortunately, after running downstairs this morning, Katy was very disappointed to find that the kitchen god had not eaten the little treats she had left for him in our "home altar". Katy loves reading all the books about Chinese New Year and the old traditions in Chinese history, so I guess that's where she got her idea about setting up an altar for the kitchen god and expecting him to come visit. We didn't get that memo though...
A big bunch of tangelos, clementines, oranges and red grapefruit for the New Year! Katy loves citrus!
