Chinese New Year last week at home was as festive as usual. Lion dance group came and performed. Guests came for the show and communal lunch and dinner. My red pockets were at minimal amount – tough personal finance generally. But things are going to be good this year so hopefully will make up for it next year.

Happy Chinese New Year again, Andie. Nice pictures of the House of Red. Thanks for sharing them.
Happy Chinese New Year, Andie! You have some very pretty photos up there! Great huge house!!
I thought it had something to do with the Chinese New Year! By the way, welcome back and I wish you all the luck in the world in this new year!
Beautiful.
I wonder why I’m not Chinese? Being non Chinese is an unjust & undeserved deprivation in times of these festivities.
I shall look for Chinese friends to be able to participate next year.
I love that giant knot hanging on the wall
Happy CNY again!
Happy New Year! Btw, I love that orange, I didn’t know it tastes so good. It’s easy to peal and eat. Lovely!
Happy New Year !
All of this red and Barongsai were from your house ?
Wow … beautiful. Love the table setting and the orange.
Do you have golden orange too ?
Tell us, why there’s Barongsai dance during the new year ?
Your house of red were lovely …
Love the red decoration Andie.. Happy New Year…
Awesome. Please tell me you live in LA are going to invite me next year. That’s just…wow! I’m in love with your yard!
I love your shots, Andie! I don’t get to see this kind of stuff, so it’s really neat to see your photos.
