Rudolph, The Red Nosed Reindeer
I was in the room watching TV show when my son came in to show me this smiley Oreo face tin box that he created. So cute! Kids are just so creative!
Then my girl Tong showed me her red nose. Hahaha!
YX saw the 'red nose' that Tong drew and made one for himself too!
Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer Lyrics
You know Dasher, and Dancer, and
Prancer, and Vixen,
Comet, and Cupid, and
Donder and Blitzen
But do you recall
The most famous reindeer of all
Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
had a very shiny nose
and if you ever saw it
you would even say it glows.
All of the other reindeer
used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Rudolph
play in any reindeer games.
Then one foggy Christmas eve
Santa came to say:
"Rudolph with your nose so bright,
won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"
Then all the reindeer loved him
as they shouted out with glee,
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer,
you'll go down in history!Here are some of the Chris
Here are some Christmas related items that can be found in my shop.
Merry X'mas! Ho ho ho..

Happy DongZhi 冬至 Festival
We celebrated 冬至 Dōngzhì Festival in my mother-in-law house. This is one of the most important festivals celebrated by the Chinese. This year it falls on 22 December 2013 on Sunday.
In English, it called Winter Solstice Festival. 冬至 Dōngzhì means "the Arrival of Winter".
Traditionally, all of us need to go home for family gathering. My mother-in-law makes tangyuan (湯圓) or balls of glutinuous rice, which symbolize reunion for us to eat. Each family member should at least eat one tangyuan.
tangyuan (湯圓) is made of glutinuous rice flour in pink and white colors.
Pink ones are stuffed with peanuts and white ones are stuffed with brown sugar. They are cooked in sweet soup and served in a bowl.
Besides tangyuan, there is also a spread of food like stir-fried prawns, steamed chicken deep fried tofu, roast pork and braised chinese mushrooms. Among all, I love the mushroom dish most. This is a traditional Cantonese dish that my mother-in-law cooks. The chinese mushrooms are braised in oyster sauce with dried oysters. Yummy!
Below are some designs that I have included in fall/winter 2013 base colors available for purchase in my shop:
