pink and white..

what are pink and white? they are tangyuans.. haha.. yesterday, I went to pray with my parents and uncle.. "visited" my grandparents and great-grandparents.. to celebrated dong zhi which means the arrival of winter.. it is an occasion for family reunion.. although it is not really so every chinese.. and during dong zhi.. we will eat tangyuans which are glutinuous rice flour balls.. and some of them are coloured pink for good luck.. haha.. and the sweet soup is cooked using red sugars.. so the soup is red and this time round.. my mum put ginger in it.. got the ginger aroma.. not bad..

the night before I helped my mum to make the tangyuans.. quite unwillingly.. haha.. too lazy.. anyway still did it.. quite fun and easy lah.. just have to make it round.. haha.. but my mum always complain that the ones I make too big.. she very troublesome leh..

the pink and white tangyuans.. hee.. you can see some of the white ones got a bit pink.. and the pink ones got a bit white.. hee.. anything lah.. round can already..
