HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR!

This year we celebrated Lunar New Year with dinner at home. Whenever my mom hosts dinner, she likes to go all out. We had some of her favorite dishes: silken tofu, glass noodles, cauliflower with scallops, chicken for good luck, steak and soup!

My mom loves to cook and growing up she did all of the cooking every holiday. Seriously do not know how she does it. I get exhausted from just watching everything she does! Even now, she will cook for hours. It takes more time because she is losing her fine motor skills, but she is stubborn and won't let anyone help her. :)

At the end of the night she disappeared to her room for a little while and I got worried. When I peaked in she was busy secretly stuffing red envelopes. How adorable is that??
