Happy Lunar New Year! Does your family celebrate lunar new year? What are some of the fun traditions you’d like to share? What’s your favorite lunar new year food? Do you help with the cooking process? Let’s celebrate the arrival of the new year with exciting multicultural culinary activities. Have you tried to make Chinese dumplings (jiaozi) before? What about learning to make some delicious Filipino spring rolls (lumpia)? What is your favorite sweets for the lunar new year? Let’s share stories, fun traditions, and delicious food from around the world.

May the Year of Fire Horse bring you happiness, prosperity, energy, and inspiration!
