Vegetarian Day

Mummy and granny are vegetarians on the first day...so we had vegetarian food as well :)
Went to granny's place and received my angpow from granny, Mummy and Daddy:)
Granny cooked the special sweet dessert drink every year and everyone gets a cup of it to drink with some well-wishes.
The drink consists of red dates and longan...just a simple drink...and the youngsters should serve this to the elders with a few verses that granny taught me before; in Hokkien

Red dates symbolize a good year every year (Ang cho ni ni ho)
Longan symbolizes a good future (Ging ging ho puay keng)
Something along that line lar...I also can't remember very well....
But nice drink :)
