Lunar New Year

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

I keep buying boxes of naval oranges advertising the year of the dragon (not sure what the connection is there) ;) so I did know that little factoid. That's a beautiful image, bookworm!

Not connected to this year specifically, but oranges and tangerines are a big part of Chinese New Year festivities in general.


There's a neat fireworks eater egg if you Google 'Lunar New Year' right now! \:D/

Okay, that makes sense. It seemed like a random place to me, but I guess that was just because I didn't know enough to know it did make sense! Thanks bookworm. :D
