Secret behind Tang Yuen...

22 December 2009...Today is Winter Solstice Festival...it's the day when most of the chinese will savour the annual mouth-watering dessert...Tang Yuen..but this is not what i'm waiting for...and i don't even like to eat or don't feel like savouring it at all..many of you might be caught in surprise why i am not eating such a "nice" dessert..but myself don't even know why i dislike this dessert...maybe because of its floury taste and the ginger-taste soup...i seriously hate the taste of ginger..can't stand the taste of it except for 1 kind of dipping which i can't even explain why i like it...LOL..according to the chinese custom, after eating the Tang Yuen signifies we are older by 1 year and we must eat amounting to our age..let's say i'm 18 this year and i have to eat 18 balls of Tang Yuen...this is certainly CRAZY!!!..hahaha...if this is true, then this might be the secret behind the youthfulness of me..wahaha..since i'm not eating it every year and this shows that i'll not grow older by years...the best kept secret of me..LOL..and this also prevented me from growing vertically which i hated the most...i am as short as a kid..T.T..but the good thing behind it is that i can keep the youthful look of me...haha..this is too much already..i better stop saying non-scientific proofing here..and wish you all have a happy reunion dinner with your family members..^.^..
