Let's just say you dont get to be as big as me by not taking advantage of specialty foods throughout the year

Is that anything like our festival of Sukkot, where we build a shelter that's open to the sky and celebrate the harvest?

We eat moon cake (a traditional square shaped pastry filled with a sweet filling)

then we go under the sky and use the full moon to charge the superluminova on our Rolexes

Oh, much nicer than us. We just shake a lulav and etrog (the lemon looking thing in the pic) and say a few prayers. Of course we try to eat dinner in the Sukkah if the weather is nice.



A typical Sukkah.

Never liked moon cake much, but the ones that my uncle gave me from the HK Shangri-La hotel were very good.

Now, about those sheep....

Yes, I know it's shocking, but I never keep track of these things. Happy festival, all!

BTW, the white lotus mooncakes rock!
