In China, businesses and schools are closed so that families can spend the holiday together. I have seen the Mid-Autumn Festival compared to how we celebrate Thanksgiving...family...and food! To learn more about the holiday click here.
To celebrate we had dinner at our favorite Chinese restaurant and Dad Dad joined us.
Traditionally, as part of the holiday mooncakes are eaten. I've got to be honest, Tony, Lily, and I are not big fans.
I had planned to try my hand at making a very Americanized version of mooncakes. Unfortunately, yesterday turned out to be a lot busier than I expected.
Not to worry...I went totally American and bought Moon Pies!! Lame...I know. You want to know the sad truth??? Tony, Lily, and I don't like Moon Pies either!!! Oh well. There's always next year!
