Mid-Autumn Moon Festival


Today is the Harvest Moon Festival in China. Luci fell asleep before the moon came up tonight. Luci's nightly ritual is to blow kisses to the moon for Daddy and catch the kisses Daddy sent up the night before. (Another thing to help with Daddy's deployment.)

We skipped the real moon cakes and had moon pies instead. Moon cakes are an acquired taste.

This website has some interesting tidbits about the Moon Festival. Here is a real moon cake recipe and here is one place for ordering, if you are more adventurous than we are.
