Today is December 22nd, which is also the winter solstice on the lunar calendar. Traditionally, our people would eat a bowl of sweet soup with rice flour balls. This traditional food we call it "Tang Yuan". Making and eating tang yuan both signify family reunion and prosperity. Some family would have pink tang yuan for good luck. When you eat Tang Yuan, it also means that you are getting one year older.
We eat not only Tang Yuan, but also dietary supplementation. There are some food for dietary supplementation, ginger duck soup with herb is most popular for Taiwaner, then wine cooked chicken soup is also common, or you also can eat mutton hot pot.
So my Mom cooked Tang Yuan for me, it means that I also grow up one year old.
And then she also cooked chicken with glutinous rice as lunch for me.
