Happy Chinese New Year!
新年快樂!
We always celebrate Chinese New Year's Eve with the family. Since my sister got married, there were four people in my family. According to the tradition, parents would give red envelops with money inside to children. That's why I got one red envelop. When children started to work, they should give red envelops to parents instead. That's why my dad got two envelops, one from me and the other from my brother. (My mom got one more from my dad.) Of course I need to give one to my brother because he is younger than me. The next day my brother and I got one more from my older sister. :-)

The second day is the day which married women went back to their parents' houses. (Traditionally married women celebrate the Chinese New Year's Eve and the first day with the husbands' families. However my sister always come back on the first day. Although my grandparents of my dad's side passed away already, my uncles and aunts still consider my family as original home because my father is the oldest son in the family and my grandparents used to live with us. Therefore as usual on the second day we had a dinner gathering as a big family, including my sister's family as well.
初二叔淑姑姑大家都回來了, 今年在濃園滿和餐廳聚餐, 菜色不錯又有獨立空間, 蠻值得下次再去的, 吃完來個家族合照~
