New Year's Treats!

The number one thing to do during Chinese new year is definitely eating... endless home cooked food and snacks and sweets. Ooo... and not to mention the dumplings. I feel like I am the fat boy in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory... minus the chocolate and replace it with pretty much everything else edible. After this weekend, I don't think I'm going to feel hungry for a week. I love holidays :)

It has been a delectable weekend! 
 

In addition to delicious home cooking, I also went to T&T the other day and found myself some awesome new year's goodies and felt the need to share. I purchased some of course in order to get into the festive mood. :)

Happy Chinese New Year's Everyone! xoxo
