Oink..Oink! Piggie Year?

20 February, 2007

The year of the golden pig has come!
In my country where I used to live, the celebration of Chinese new year has been admitted legally as a national holiday since 5 years ago (?). Though I am not a part of the community and even I don't believe about their superstitions saying that the year of the golden pig always brings good luck, money and prosperity in terms of wealth (being wealthy is always on their top rank, I wonder why?), all I know pig is a pig no matter what! I am talking about how good my breakfast is with the bacon strips and omelet on the plate, or how delicious it is to get baby back ribs bbq in Famous Dave's restaurant. As we all know that pig is such a dirty animal in the world, I can't help to eat them ..oh well! hihihi..


There are a lot of traditions associated with Chinese New Year, and so many of them have to do with food! Unfortunately I am not knowledgeable enough about any kind of menu they use to have during the celebration.

Anyhow, reading news about this Chinese new year has inspired me to cook Hainanese Chicken Rice yesterday. It was so good!!
