Kung Hei Fat Choy

Happy Chinese New Year! Early Saturday morning, Feb. 13, Eddie and I drove to Toronto to celebrate Chinese New Year Eve with the family. As usual it was a feast lovingly prepared by my mother-in-law and my sister-in-law, Irene. We all over ate and enjoyed this festive tradition together. Then we either exchanged or received our little red packets and went home with turnip cakes from Alice (lobako - mmmmm). After our meal Eddie, Mom and I did some browsing at Pacific Mall - probably the worst day of the year to do this! After dropping Mom back home, we said our good byes and started our long four-hour drive back to Ottawa. Here are the pictures from our gathering. Peter, once again thank you for sending me that beautiful music that is the background for the pictures. Irene, thank you for having us all over to celebrate as a family. Kung Hei Fat Choy everybody ! !
