Chúc mừng năm mới!
Happy Tết or Lunar New Year in Vietnamese! Today marks the year of the dragon.
To get ready, this past weekend, I went to the Vietnamese grocery store to pick up some essentials.
First, we have to eat banh chung, made of fatty pork, mung bean, and sticky rice.
It's also traditional to eat candied fruit, but I've never been a fan of it. Usually there's candied coconut, lotus seeds, ginger and lots of other stuff. I didn't pick up any for the family because I knew no one would eat it.
I'll be back tomorrow with my Creative Everyday post!
Happy Lunar New Year!
