As you might know, Chinese New Year began on January 31 and is now ending on February 14. I just wanted to take a moment to talk about the mouthwatering foods that are eaten during Chinese New Year. For starters, one of my personal favorite treats is tang yuan. It's sort of like a dumpling with a sweet filling. Another thing I love is the homemade fa gao. Fa gao is bread that can come in a variety of colors, brown, pink, and even green. Staying with the homemade theme, I am a huge fan of the sticky rice cake, known as nian gao. With all this food, I'm definitely counting down the days until the next Chinese New Year.
