Welcoming the Year of the Tiger

Once we have enjoyed all the Glutinous Rice Dumplings (Tang Yuan) at Winter Festival (Dong Zhi), we will be busy preparing for the most important event on the Lunar calendar, Lunar New Year.

The year of the tiger falls on 14th February, coincidentally also Valentine's Day. According to those who study the Lunar astrology, 2010 is the year of the golden tiger that comes only every 60 years, or so they said. Whatever it is, we sure hope that everyone of us is able to prepare our food as naturally as possible, to promote natural health. We wish all of you a healthily happy new year, certainly as healthy as the tiger - the symbol of all strengths!
