  1. My family was invited to my friends' place to celebrate Chinese New Year this year. Happy Year of the Rabbit!

    One of them is from Singapore, where they always begin with a dish called lo hei or prosperity toss. It is a salad with raw fish and shredded vegetables. Everyone shares the dish and mixes the ingredients together. You recite good luck sayings and idioms while you toss the salad. The higher you toss, the more luck you'll have in the coming year!

    This was my first time participating in the preparation of lo hei. It was really fun and quite delicious!

  2. This is a difficult choice for me. I think it partly depends on my mood. When I am lazy, it's much easier to throw a bunch of ingredients together and bake a dish in the oven.  However, I really enjoy the ability to experiment with different flavors and adjust accordingly while cooking.

  3. I enjoy walking down the grocery store aisles looking for ingredients. Sometimes there are so many options for one ingredient! I also like the actual cooking, especially when the lovely aromas start filling the air. 

    My knife skills aren't that great, so prepping the ingredients can be rather nerve-wracking for me. Cleaning up afterwards usually isn't fun either.
