Year of the Golden Horse

30 January marked the first day of the Lunar New Year 2014. It's the Year of the Golden Horse up next! Here are a few pictures of my simple preparation for the celebration.


A simple flora arrangement that symbolises Spring, with a basket of oranges to signify prosperity and luck

Cookies freshly baked by Mum -- a must-have to entertain all the guests who comes along to visit

A closer look at this little Laughing Buddha -- he hands out a red packet (Hong Bao) to wish one and all
a Lucky and Smooth-sailing Year ahead

And the Golden Horse leads the way into a brand new prosperous year (picture taken at Chinatown)

Here's wishing you

马年行好运，心想事成

(May the Year of the Horse bring good luck throughout, and make your dreams come true.)
