Happy Chinese New Year!
We celebrated Chinese New Year eve by having a family dinner and making a cake.  We have no clue why you make a cake, but who are we to argue with years and years of ancient customs!  We had heard there would be tons of fireworks, but WHOA!  Non-stop fireworks, literally right outside our windows, until 2am in the morning.  Pretty cool, but can get pretty old by 12am!  Here's a pic of our beautiful cake.  Yes, that's a rabbit for the 'year of the rabbit'.  Plus, we are stupid Americans and misspelled Happy New Year in Chinese.  Too late!
