The hamper is back and so much more!

        As much as the Cebuanos are busy preparing for the upcoming Sinulog festivity this month, another important celebration is being looked forward too in here.  We are moving towards the traditional Chinese holiday.  January 31 opens the first day of the year of the Chinese calendar. 

        In line with this, the beautiful hampers are back and so much more!  They are most visible at the grocery stores and another hurrah of SALE is everywhere.  I always appreciate how much effort they put in preparing their hampers.  They are not just plainly wrapped in transparent cellophane but look at this picture. 

See!?

A hamper could contain:

• chocolates and goodies
• tea, coffee and tea set
• Abalone gift set
• cookies gift set and etc

        The malls/establishments are embellished for the upcoming CNY and so far, I so love the deco at KLCC Suria.  Saaaakkkuraaaa! hehehe.  Here! 

 

A giant golden horse surrounded with red lanterns and Cherry Blossoms! Sigh! Sakura!   I wonder what's at Pavilion?  Hmmm, have not visited the place yet but there is one post I saw and waaaaahhh!  Another heaven of Sakura!  The Hello Kitties are for sale and I'm sure all the HKians will drool on the red envelopes, decorations and stuff that Sanrio has released for CNY.  I was so captivated with the Twin Stars' CNY envelopes.  Should I buy or not?  Buy or not? hehehe.

Like any upcoming festivity such as this, there are a lot of food promotions, free vouchers(but with a minimum purchase), lucky draws and entertainments.  So for now, we content our eyes with the liveliness at the malls, the busy shoppers with their paper bags, the red ang pow envelopes, the red and pink decorations and the beautiful hampers. 

It's another weekend to relax and I can't wait to try a recipe for our breakfast!  To our dear Monique and MK, Happy Birthday and May your hearts be filled with goodness and gladness always!
