Everybody’s Birthday

Today is the 7th Day of the Chinese Lunar Calendar. It is known as “Yan Yat“, A Day of Mankind or Everybody’s birthday. I really don’t know why it is known as such but let me wish everyone a Happy Birthday today 😀 Last time, many people toss “Yee Sang” on this day but now, most people have Yee Sang before Yan Yat. We had a little celebration at home today with my sisters. My mum fried some noodles and steamed a plate of sausages and arrow root. We also had our first Yee Sang for this year. Yummylicious!! So, did you celebrate Everybody’s Birthday today?
