Happy Chinese New Year!

Year of the PIG!!!
Gung Hay Fat Choy, everyone!!!



Chinese New Year in 2007 is the Year of the Red Fire Pig. The year of the pig ends the 12 year cycle of the Chinese zodiac. Like the houses of the zodiac, the animals of Chinese astrology are said to influence your luck during the year. Your horoscopes for 2007, the year of the pig, depends on which animal signifies the year you were born.

Pigs are said to be very good matches for tigers and sheep, but do not get along well with snakes and monkeys. Other pigs, rabbits, horses, oxen, rats, roosters, dogs and dragons can make good companions, but the relationships are not always smooth or long lasting.

Babies born in the year of the pig are fortunate and make good partners in life. The pig is modest, sometimes quick to anger but also quick to learn and hard working. Their ability to see things through brings success in business and personal affairs.

We're taking it pretty easy this New Year's. My parents are 3 hours up island and far away, yee-mah is sick, my brother is in Alberta and the rest of the family is in Vancouver. So we bought a roast and making dinner at home. Nathan is going to make his famous yorkshire pudding :o)

I wish you and your families wealth, prosperity and good health! Happy New Year!
