A girl named Widget

Gong He Fat Boy!

Okay, one week late but hey, I’ve been busy growing! Chinese New Year festivities began last Thursday and continue through the weekend. What a long holiday!

This is my first one and I quickly learned that it pays to be a kid on this holiday because of money-filled red packets. My Uncle Jon and Auntie Karen both gave me one. My Ah-Ma gave me a Hello Kitty packet. I still haven’t decided if I’m a fan of the cartoon kitty but Mommy is and I love Mommy!

I got to get out of the house for Chinese New Year and visit Uncle Jon & Auntie Karen’s home in Pasadena. They took us to a Cantonese restaurant in Alhambra called The Kitchen. It smelled really good but they wouldn’t let me try anything — not even the jelly fish! Oh well. At least I got to wear my hot-pink cheongsum, a gift from Auntie Karen’s sister Helen. Thank you Auntie Helen! Gong He Fat Boy to everyone!!
