Today is the first day of the Year of the Rat.
Happy New Year!新年快乐 • 万事如意
Nothing beats the Chinese New Year atmosphere. It is a time of families reuniting, good food, and just a general break from the routines of life... and of course, a fresh start.
I love this time of year, when everyone comes home to be with loved ones. When the food is plentiful and good. When new year's greetings are on everyone's lips. When we start fresh. It's everything that a holiday should be.
Here's wishing everyone good health and happiness in the Year of the Rat!

the first time I celebrated CNY it was the beginning of the year of the Rat, twelve years ago. As it happens I was born in the year of the Rat now finishing the fifth cycle!
Wow! That's pretty cool, ff&f.
Chinese New Year is always lots of fun. There's hardly anything better than having good friends home to enjoy good food and good times together!

I got the photo collage, but haven't been to visit any blogs during the holiday.
