Dong Zen Temple CNY Lantern & Flora Festival (佛光山东禅寺平安灯会花艺展)

Every 9th day of CNY, all Hokkienese will worship and pay homage to Jade Emperor. On this day, I never miss out to go to Dong Zen Temple at Jenjarom. I went there to pray for our family's happiness and don't forget about my study too. The temple was decorated so beautifully with the lanterns. Besides enjoying the beautiful scenery, the visitors can have vegetables food at the stall provided. This year was Tiger year so can see the main character, Tiger lantern everywhere.

HKF -- love beard candy
My favourite Chinese New Year food (though you sometimes find it all year round) is the Dragon Beard Candy, an ancient Chinese Emperor’s Dessert. It’s made into very sweet thin strands and sometimes filled with peanuts.
If you’ve never tried it, you simply have to! The only place I know to find this online is http://www.geocities.jp/family_hong_kong/English/Dragon_Bread_Candy_index.htm .
