Dragon Boat Festival aka Rice Dumpling Day

Today is dragon boat festival in China. It is 5th day of 5th month in the lunar calendar. Commercial Rice dumplings is at peak price now. Many families still practise the tradition of making their own rice dumplings to pray. My family do not have this tradition. We are more Western in lifestyle. We celebrate Christmas, sometime we carryover from our life in Canada. We love Christmas time in Canada.

I can't even remember what this rice dumpling day is for. So much for my knowledge of Chinese tradition.
