In fact, it is not really Chinese New Year; it's the Spring Festival. Since we are in the middle of a blizzard right now, I have a hard time calling anything "Springy". Nevertheless, we are expecting to have a grand time at a local CNY celebration this weekend. We are meeting up with some of our new and old friends who have Chinese daughters and joining the local Chinese American group to eat and socialize. I think it is beyond generous of them to include our girls in their celebrations. I think the PRC would be proud of them for looking out for their little sisters. Our Chinese friend, Iris, is joining us, so I am anxious to get her take on the celebration. Today we are decorating our door with good luck couplets, hanging our lantern, preparing our red envelopes, and trying to decide if we will use the firecrackers we bought. See #1 in this post.
