Gung Hay Fat Choy Foo Dog Happy New Year 2018 # 20180117-151241 775X625T

LUNAR NEW YEAR

Feb 16, 2018 - Feb 4, 2019

Year of the Dog

 

Along with many Asians throughout the world, Melody considers Chinese New Year the most important holiday of the year.

 

Born of Chinese immigrant parents, Melody remembers from early childhood the preparation and festivities, the paying off of debts, the visiting and celebrating among relatives and friends, red envelopes with monetary gifts for children, newlyweds, and other special occasions.

 

Though customarily given mostly to kids from parents and grandparents, we are sending our envelopes to children of friends and relatives and to you – red being the symbol of Good Luck and to ward off evil spirits.
