Chinese New Year

Good luck coin in a red envelope

















We are taking extra careful measures with Toucie during this season of colds and flu. Our ventures into public  places are pretty rare, but for the Chinese New Year we made an exception. Sporting a mask (just as good at keeping people at a distance as it is as protecting her from germies), we stepped out on the town!

...and a Chinese dance performance...look at the little bunnies :)


















Best seat in the house...perched on Daddy's shoulders

we loved all the bright costumes!

back home it's time to get cooking!
















ambitiously attempting spring rolls from this cookbook
















Toucie works on the filling...
