Kung Hei Fat Choi!

It's chinese new year once again! It has been part of our culture since there are so many chinese people living in the Philippines. I have always believed in Feng Shui even if my genes are contrary to my husbands' bloodline. He is 70% chinese by blood but not in practice. My mom is more of the chinese kind than her chinese friends. Most of her chinese friends does'nt celebrate chinese new year. We always tease her about being chinese because of her practices. Last sunday, we watched Rated K and Mel & Joey since their topic was all about geomancers, feng shui experts and such. they talked about the do's and don'ts on new year. Yesterday, we bought fruits, foods, chocolate and the ever present tikoy.as usual we ate until we dropped. we had siomai, machang, pork asado, chicken feet and my favorite, shrimp curry with vegetables. yumyum.. we waited until 12mn to greet the chinese new year. all the lights, doors and windows were opened since they say this will bring all the goodluck inside your home. Our house was the only one glaring last night since our neighbors were all asleep and most of the lights were out. anyways, KUNG HEI FAT CHOI everyone!:)
