Yes, today is Chinese New Year!
(My mom and I have always celebrated it, in some way; mainly because I was born in, and adopted from, Hefei, China.)
This year is the Year of the Rabbit.
(CREDIT.)
I'd also like to make a note: my mom is a Rabbit, so I wish her much good fortune in this New Year. :)

Happy Chinese New Year! Maybe I should go to Panda Express, a Chinese restaurant across the street from where I live, and get lunch to bring home to celebrate.

Mmmmm-- Firecracker Chicken and Beijing Beef--I'm getting hungry.

Happy new year! I was in Taiwan two years ago for Chinese new year. It was so much fun. It mostly involved a lot of eating.
I loved the hot pot on new year's eve.
What fun! I'm the year of the cat (I know the lowest in the pecking order LOL!) Happy Chinese New Year. So what qualities does someone born in the year of the rabbit have? :O)
Happy New Year. :-)
And to you! :)
Apparently I am a rabbit! You are a Rabbit LOL! :O)

I'm a Capricorn, and a Rat--does that mean anything? :P

I wonder if there are any other snakes here?

It's easy to forget--not something a lot of people think about (at least in this part of the world.)

You can find out here if you want to.
Beth: Thanks!
Tricia: Thank you! :)
Vicki: Thanks!
Madeline: Really? Awesome--I'm the same!
Alison: That does sound like a lot of fun! :)
Madeleine: The Cat and the Rabbit are the same, aren't they? It's just a matter of translation.
According to Wikipedia, rabbits are: "Gracious, good friend, kind, sensitive, soft-spoken, amiable, elegant, reserved, cautious, artistic, thorough, tender, self-assured, shy, astute, compassionate, lucky, flexible. Can be moody, detached, superficial, self-indulgent, opportunistic, stubborn."
The "gracious, good friend, kind, elegant, astute, compassionate" part definitely applies to my mom. :)
Alison: Thank you!
I still have to do it myself--good for you on getting around to all the Crusaders!
I didn't reply to you in order in the last comment by accident, so if you don't see yourself in the same order with the other commenters in my previous comment, check this one.
Misha: Thank you!
Pk: Thanks!
Madeleine: Nice to see you again! :)
Actually, it's my mom who's the Rabbit.

Nicole: Thank you! :)
W.B.: Thanks!

Sharon: Thanks! :)
Maria: Thanks!
Cool!
Hart: That's an interesting mix! :)
Thanks!
