Mom, dad, and Amelia celebrated the Autumn Moon with Moon cakes and Tea. Hubby likes neither the tea nor the moon cake, but humors me anyway. The moon wasnt actually out yet but I insisted we gaze at where the moon might be later ;) I got a lot of eye rolling for that one.
Amelia liked her tea
I bought authentic moon cakes from Super H Mart--an Asian food extravaganza, not far from our new house! I got the lotus seed version, but I have to confess, it was a-w-f-u-l. ick. Next year I'll go back to baking a "westernized" version of the moon cake. I found a pretty good recipe in the Dumplings, Dragons, and Moon Cakes book.
