kung hei fat choi

the wonderful thing about chinese new year for me is... wonderfully yummy sticky TIKOY! yum yum yum! and thanks to maean, i was able to partake a piece last sunday.

anyway... late as it may be, let me share with you neil gaiman's greeting on his blog.

Happy Year of the Pig, to all of us.

Pigs, I learned as a boy, reading books, especially young pigs, are loveable, brave, noble and intelligent animals who have adventures.

I hope this year you get to be brave and noble and intelligent. But mostly I hope you get to have adventures.

(As G. K. Chesterton once said, An inconvenience is an adventure wrongly considered. An adventure is only an inconvenience rightly considered... )
Yes, let's all have adventures! May you be a Wilbur (Charlotte's Web), a Babe (Babe, the Gallant Pig), a Napoleon (Animal Farm), Miss Piggy (The Muffets) or Porky (Looney Tunes).
