14 September 2008 was the Mid Autum Festival or also called the Mooncake Festival.
Papa brought back a box of Tai Thong mooncakes ... whilst my Mummy, ai ... busy putting things in place to have 80+ boxes of mooncakes delivered to her company customers never brought any mooncakes home ...
The moon is supposed to be in its fullest tonite according to popular Chinese legends. Alongside with this are also the many varied stories of the Mooncake Festival:
1) The Lady Chang-Er, wife of the tyrannical archer, Hou Yi
2) The shiftless man, Wu Kang
3) The sarcrifical rabbit
4) The making of special cakes for rebellion without it being discovered a.k.a mooncakes
