Our Eating Binge Is Supposed To End Today...

Today is supposedly the last day of

the ChineseNewYear celebrations

And the last day of  the mumster's food binge

But

as usual, she has another good excuse

for this coming Saturday Feb19's

dinner.....err, dadster's birthday....

she's trusting we are that naive!!!

this being her first CNY

my sista is confused and paying close attention

to my explanation of CNY's traditions

and mumster's excuses for her food binge!

 

CoCo:  Tiff, all the family gatherings, the eating

is supposed to bring good luck for the new year

and the more mumster eats, the more luck

for her and us, ok?

Tiffy: yes, CoCo

CoCo: before, the celebration lasted a whole

month and now luckily it only lasts

for 15 days.......can you imagine  mumster's

waistline if she eats nonstop for a month???

you know, the food we ate are symbolic?

eg: dumplings - they look like golden nuggets

oranges -perfectly round symbolizing wholeness

and completeness

long noodles - for long life

you get, Tiffy???

Tiffy:  yes, CoCo

CoCo:  remember how i had to help

clean the house Prior to CNY? to clear

any bad luck from last year???

your hair trim and my new clothes.....

for a fresh start to the new year?

our red packets.....filled with $$$

for wealth and prosperity for this year

Tiffy: yes, CoCo...
so  YOU will be encouraging her
to continue eating
for endless luck for us???


chikisses,

and Tiffy
