I like 冬至 more than CNY... and I remember I always help my mother in making the rice dumplings when i was at home.
I was surprised that you celebrate this day too when you mentioned that in your email. :)
Actually, I'm looking forward to autumn, or even winter, when the sun will rise later, not as early as now - 5.35am, so that I don't have to wake up so early to go for hikes. And when in winter, there is something to look forward - spring. Feels good when you have 'something to look forward'. You must be looking forward to your trip back to SG in Jan. :)
I only like CNY eve, nothing beats enjoying good food with the whole family.
I am the only one in the family who celebrates 冬至. My mum no longer makes the dumplings. Maybe becos i like dumplings, esp those with peanut fillings. Eat them from time to time. :b
Winter is not that bad, we have gotten used to the cold and the sun setting at 4:30pm. This is the only time you could work from home too. You bet I am really looking forward to my home visit, and Spring too, our first one here. :)

I used to celebrate 冬至 here but this year I could not find any rice dumplings in the two New World supermarkets. And I didn't go to Chinese stores..
The sun sets around 8.55pm now. hee. Know your question does not apply to me.
Merry Christmas.
Wow, surprised you celebrate too ! Thought I was the only traditional one :)
Actually I was thinking of you when I posed the question. Hee. No worries, the reverse is going to happen soon. ;)
