Bright moon, delicious mooncake, and the most important thing is to stay with family.
That's Mid-Autumn.^_^

If you look to the full moon tonight, then you will find a beautiful girl called Chang E in the moon. Together with Chang E is a rabbit, it will milling herbs. And a man called Wu Gang, who is busy to cut down an osmanthus tree. Unfortunately, the tree can never be cut down……

The legend also spreaded to Japan. But there is a little different. Japanese moon rabbit's work is to make new year cake (a kind of glutinous rice cake), not dealing with herbs. Actually I'm always feeling confused... Kiku-chan, what are you thinking about? Anyway it's still too early to prepare for new year in September...=_=

On today's local newspaper, it reported that some residents in my city joined an event to make special mooncakes. They created wonderful shapes...included sunflower and bear. ^L^ Oh dear...Vanya is watching you! (laugh)
By the way, the traditional shape of mooncake is round, for the meaning of full moon and family members get together happily.

There are several flavours of mooncake. My favourite is lotus with egg yolk. Red bean is too sweet for me, and I do hate those "fruit" flavour mooncake--there is no fruit in it.
I once tried the ham mooncake when I was young and live in Yunnan province. That's great❤. But I can never find this flavour in Hunan province. Maybe that's a special local product of Yunnan. TwT~I do miss it!
Another special flavour mooncake is Hongkong's ice mooncake. ↓



looks nice right? That tastes nice too! I love this kind of mooncakes because it is not such sweet, I don't like food which contains too much sugar.


Enjoy the bright moon and time with family! Happy Mid-Autumn day.^_^
