CNY Dishes # 5 - 金花朵朵齐迎春 | 黄金桂花糕 Osmanthus Jelly

转眼就到了年初九,也是拜天公的大日子,昨夜里从10点左右开始就可以听到附近邻居们放烟花声和鞭炮的声音了,踏正12点更是热闹,大家一起放,声音更是响,断断续续地,放到1点多声音才开始减少。年除夕那天的烟花声和鞭炮声远远不及昨晚的那么响及热闹,果然是拜天公大过年,大家为了祈求天公的保佑,所以特别注重拜天公的仪式。以前在巴生娘家只要到了年初八晚上就会很热闹,烟花不断,只要抬头就可看见了,仿佛像是烟花比赛一样。原以为吉隆坡这里不会那么热闹,不过看来我错了,昨天的那些烟花声和鞭炮声绝对可媲美巴生那里的,只可惜小宝贝因这些声音睡不稳,妈咪我也只能在窗口看一看就算了。希望小宝贝长大后会有机会带她回娘家拜天公,让她也感受一下那些热闹的气氛。


送上我的最后一道年菜给大家,金花朵朵齐迎春,黄金桂花糕,祝大家金银满袋,步步高升!

  2. Hi Violet,

    I guess that this must be your dessert after your CNY feast! It looks very pretty with its oriental motif and colours!
