Yuan Xiao Jie (元宵节) is also a celebration of lanterns and lights. It is also the valentine day of the Chinese calendar, where people will toss oranges to the river while giving a wish in hope to 'find' their life partner after that.
Our Yuan Xiao celebration was simple. We had dinner with mother-in-law and headed home. Some friends dropped by for the last minute CNY visit (and of course to claim their angpow). We served them pummelo from my dad's orchard.
We had Yee Sang again. I'd performed Lou Sang (the action of tossing the Yee Sang) 4 times this year. Looking forward to a prosperous year ahead. hehehe
P/s: Danial, your larling honey asked about you. Ah Hock too.

Hi Josh, i'm interested with the way u peeled the pummelo.. creative, siap jadik bowl kulit dia.. ;-)
[pinky] Tu ada teknik dia. Our family memang practice camtu. First u cut a line around the mid part of the fruit. Then detach the skin from the flesh using our finger, slowly. Nak demo? mai rumah Josh.
okes.. but pummelo sentiasa ada ke kt umah Josh..
[pinky] Taklah, kalo Josh balik kampung, mesti ada bawak balik sini.
baru jer nak komen cara kopek buah tu..kak pinky selalu tau potong line!!hahaha
so..sbb dah dpt jwpn..xder komen laa
[ad] hahahaha... tak pe, untuk Ad, versi Bahasa Melayu pulak:
Mula-mula gunakan pisau dan potongkan satu garis mengelillingi buah limau bali tu. Pastikan potongan tersebut tidak terlalu dalam, ataupun terlalu cetek. (lebih kurang 1.5cm kedalaman). Gunakan jari anda untuk memisahkan sisi dengan kulit. Asingkan dengan perlahan sehinggalah isi tersebut berjaya dipisahkan.
.... matilaaa versi BM x sama dengan versi Inggeris.
