Merry Christmas, Jack!


Jack’s Christmas package is being delivered in the next few days. I was going to send the moon cake care package instead, but after reading the description, "These cakes were made with melon seeds, lotus seeds, almonds, minced meats, bean paste, orange peels and lard. A golden yolk from a salted duck egg was placed at the center of each cake, and the golden brown crust was decorated with symbols of the festival," couldn’t do it. It may be a delicacy there, but I couldn’t open myself up enough to embrace this part of the Asian culture. I think our entire family could learn a lesson from the Chinese about not being picky eaters!
