We chinese will celebrate the mid-autumn day on next Tuesday.and,as u know,we eat mooncakes that day.it is an old traditional holiday.now ,people give mooncakes as a gift to friends or relatives.that is no wonder when u walk on the street,you can see the slogans of mooncakes or sales of mooncakes all over. by the way, mooncakes has been changing a lot these years.there are many flavors now,for example,eggs,meat.....but i still think that when i was a child,the mooncake are more delicious than now.it sounds that things in memories are better than ever. do you know these holiday?and do u like mooncake? thanks for sharing.

Moon Festival is a day for all the family members to get together for a big meal and some moon-cakes in the evening. It is said that the moon that night is the brightest and most round. I still remember when I was a kid, our family used to go the balcony to eat moon-cakes with a basin of clear water for the purpose of seeing the legend guy--Wugang chopping the tree down. It is said that Wugang could be seen chopping down the tree on that special day... I used to like moon-cakes when I was a kid, but I am sorry to say that I am not fond of them as I used to. hehe. Here let me say Happy Autumn Day to you in advance, dear lisa.
