Today is ‘Tung’ Festival in the Chinese Calendar

Every year ‘Tung’ Festival is celebrated on the same day (three days before Christmas).

(Today is also my cousin and a KL friend’s birthday, so Happy Birthday to both of you).

I heard ‘Tung’ Festival is supposed to be more important than Chinese New Year. It is celebrated to signal the beginning of the Northern winter. Usually as a tradition, Chinese eat glutinous rice ball (tong yuan) on this day.

As usual mum cooked all the delicious food for all of us except my brother in law cooked the frogs. There were too much food and lots of leftovers. I think I should have invited some friends over to join us. Haha
