Moon festival
Mid-Autumn is one of my fave holidays as I have very happy childhood memories of the festival. I remember I would play with the beautiful, cellophane and paper lanterns (not some wimpy battery-powered plastic cheap replacement, my faves were the rabbit & goldfish). I remember watching older kids playing candles and wax. I remember eating the arteries-plugged, extremely fatty but yummy totus seed paste moon cakes! It was pretty funny because I would pick out the yolk and my cus, Vincent would pick out the lotus seed paste, so we never have to fight.
Now, you can get moon cake with ice-cream filling. Check this out.
My granny would make me Polmelo lantern and I would have the coolest lantern in the whole wide world.
