The Last Lion Dance

February 6, 2017 by ChrissyJee 2 Comments

The Last Lion DanceUncle Felix or Fifi, in red in the middle, has been in a lion dance troupe for as long as I can remember.  Fifi is my dad’s cousin, so my second cousin or uncle.  This would be his last year doing lion dances and his troupe would be the last performance in Chinatown so we came out to see him.

The Last Lion DanceFifi’s troupe has a lot of members organizing, performing, drumming.  They all wore the same jackets.

The Chinese lion performances are a tradition that starts on New Year’s day and continue the 15 days of celebration.  The parading lions go through the streets to bring good luck to everyone they meet and visit stores, restaurants, and businesses.

The Last Lion DanceWe watched them setup.

The Last Lion DanceAnd stack these red wooden benches that Fifi in the lion costume would jump onto.

The Last Lion DanceA Chinese Association paid to have the lion dance performance in front of their building.  They strung oranges, lettuce, and red envelopes for the lion to reach for good luck.  The lion would put the lettuce in its mouth and then spit it out to symbolize spreading good luck and a fresh start.

The Last Lion DanceHere is a photo of the lions spitting out lettuce at the Lunar New Year Family Festival at MOCA.

The Last Lion DanceThere was a great crowd.  I was nervous for him to jump up onto the red benches.  Fifi had nerves of steel.

The Last Lion DanceThese would be the performing lions.

The Last Lion DanceThe performance started with the lions walking down the street to the front of the Chinese Association building.

The Last Lion DanceThe Laughing Buddha came to tease the lion with a fan and make it jump, roll, and lay down.  The Buddha climbed up a pole and cut down the oranges, lettuce, and red envelopes to feed to the lion.

The Last Lion DanceThen did some acrobatics for the crowd.

The Last Lion DanceThe lion dance performance was awesome.

The Last Lion DanceWe saw another performance earlier in the day and the lion was on stilts and unraveled a scroll with a message of good luck.

When I grew up fireworks were part of the lion dance performances to scare away the evil spirits.  For safety reasons they are no longer part of these performances and now that I’m older, it’s somewhat unbelievable to have firecrackers going off around huge crowds of people.

The Last Lion DanceI’ve seen so many lion dances and always impressed with the athleticism and skill.  It’s one of my favorite parts of Chinese New Year.

#ReadYourWorld 100 Fun & Easy Learning Games For Kids

January 25, 2017 by ChrissyJee 4 Comments

Disclosure: I received a copy of “100 Fun & Easy Learning Games for Kids” to review. All opinions are my own.100 Fun & Easy Learning Games For KidsI am honored to review ,100 Fun & Easy Learning Games For Kids, for Multicultural Book Day.  My mom-blogger friend, Mia Wenjen from pragmaticmom.com, co-hosts this awesome event.  Page Street Publishing Co. along with authors, Amanda Boyarshinov and Kim Vij from the popular parenting blog, the educatorsspinonit.com, supplied me this great book to review.

As an Asian mom, I would by lying if I said I didn’t want my daughters to love learning and be good at it.  I love this book because Amanda and Kim give SO many fun games to play with things you can find around your home that teach important lessons from reading, math, and science to art, music and social studies.

You can pick activities from one of their 6 different sections like “Zip-Line Letters” from the “Fantastic Reading” section or “Outdoor  Sound Garden” from the “Musical Music and Art” section.

100 Fun & Easy Learning Games For KidsMy daughters chose “How Many Bricks” in the “Really Cool Math” section.  They love Legos!

100 Fun & Easy Learning Games For KidsAll we needed were plastic bricks like Legos, muffin tin liners, paper and a black marker to label the liners 1 to 10.  To play the game, you need to fill the muffin tin with the number below and color of the muffin tin.  For example, a blue muffin cup with a 3 below it would need to be filled with 3 blue legos.  The focused skill for this activity was sorting and grouping items in specific number groupings.

100 Fun & Easy Learning Games For KidsFirst, the girls played together and were timed how long it took to finish.  My 5-year-old filled muffin tins 1-5 and 8-year-old filled muffin tins 6-10.

100 Fun & Easy Learning Games For KidsI would check to make sure each of the tins were filled correctly.  Each tin filled correctly was a point.

100 Fun & Easy Learning Games For KidsAfter a dozen games, we divided the tins in half so each player got some low and high numbers and the girls played each other.

100 Fun & Easy Learning Games For KidsCousin Cheryl was visiting and she got in on the fun.  We made the game more complicated for her so she had to not only fill according to the color and number, but also all pieces in the tin had to be the same size.

100 Fun & Easy Learning Games For KidsThen I played…and got the slowest score!

100 Fun Learning Games for Kids: Teach Reading, Writing, Math and More with Fun Activities [Page Street Publishing Co.], released May 2016, is available at book stores nationwide and online retailers like Amazon. Suggested Retail Price: $21.99.

We had so much fun coming up with new rules for the game.  We played over 30 games and it was a total blast!

2 Week Planning Guide to Chinese New Year

January 13, 2017 by ChrissyJee 2 Comments

2 Week GuideYou look at the calendar and realize there are only 2 weeks until Chinese New Year!  Don’t fret.  Follow this list and you will be ready to celebrate.

This Week

Order red envelopes.  Giving and receiving red envelopes is one of the happiest traditions during Chinese New Year.  Married couples give money in red envelopes to unwed family and close friends as a way to share their good fortune in the new year.  Envelopes are red because the color symbolizes prosperity, good luck, and thought to keep away evil spirits.

Plan Reunion Dinner.  The most important meal of the year is Reunion Dinner because it closes out the year and celebrates all of your good fortune and accomplishments.  Generations within a family get together for this celebration.  Traditionally, this dinner is celebrated on Chinese New Year’s eve but since it is such an important celebration, find a date that works for everyone.  Try to get together before Chinese New Year Day but don’t worry if the dinner happens afterwards, the important part is the family coming together.  Doesn’t matter if you go to a restaurant or cook dinner at home, the food should be abundant with leftovers to eat on Chinese New Year’s day.  This represents the excess of good fortune in the current year overflowing into the coming year.   Dinner should include food to symbolize fortune, happiness, longevity such as a whole chicken and fish, long life noodles, long leafy green vegetables, sweets for a sweeter life.  Red envelopes are given after dinner.

Get Chinese New Year books for children.  The biggest learning from my mom blogger friend, PragmaticMom, is to teach children through books.  I read books about Chinese New Year to my children (5 and 8 years old), they ask questions, and we have really good talks about all the different things that go into this big celebration.  Reading books has explained Chinese New Year to my children better then I could ever have.  Here is a great list of Chinese New Year Books from PragmaticMom, one of our favorites is Bringing in the New Year by Grace Lin.

Next Week

Clean your home for new beginnings.  This is a thorough cleaning of your home so it’s best to start as soon as possible.  You do this because you want to “sweep out” any lingering misfortune from the current year.   The cleaning should include sweeping corners, cleaning out the food pantry and refrigerator, washing sheets and towels.  Do a little each day so that your home is most clean on New Year’s eve, sweeping the first few days of the new year could sweep away good luck.

Setup a centerpiece of oranges and buy more for gifting.  Oranges, tangerines, and pomelos represent luck, wealth, and abundance.  Create a centerpiece of these fruits and display it prominently in your home or on the dinner table.  Buy 2 tangerines with stems and leaves to represent longevity and display them on top of your stove or television.  Have a stock of oranges and tangerines at home to give to friends when visiting.  Do not give 4 fruits because the number sounds like the word for death in Chinese.  Give fruits in a red bag for extra luck.

Pick out your celebration outfits.  To bring luck for the new year, wear red to every Chinese New Year celebration, Chinese New Year’s Eve, and Chinese New Year’s Day.  Head-to-toe in red is not necessary, well put together outfits with red tops, bottoms, accessories, or shoes is the look you are going for.  Red is preferred, but pink is also ok.  I wear a lot of black and neutral colors so I have red and pink scarves to get me celebration ready.

Week Of Chinese New Year

Be in good spirits.  This is one of the happiest times of year celebrating all of your accomplishments from the current year and anticipating good fortune for the coming year.  Of course, we all have things that bother us, but for these couple of weeks, celebrate the moment and enjoy the time with family and friends.  But we don’t want bad feelings to be carried into the new year.  In other words, party like a rock star!

Did I miss anything?

4 Christmases

January 3, 2017 by ChrissyJee Leave a Comment

4 Days of ChristmasI am starting to recover from the busy and super fun holidays.  Because we live close to both my family and my husband’s family, we are fortunate to celebrate with all our families and this year we had 4 Christmases.
Christmas Eve we celebrated with Grouchy Husband’s family in the Berkshires, Massachusetts.  The girls opened one present before we left.

4 Days of ChristmasChristmas Eve was also the first night of Hannukah.  It was special to watch Uncle Mark and Aunt Bernice’s family light the first candle of the menorah and say a blessing.

4 Days of ChristmasThe girls played high-stakes backgammon with Cousin Jill and Scott.

4 Days of ChristmasThey also decorated their 7th gingerbread house of the season.

4 Days of ChristmasWe stayed one night in the Berkshires, came home, unpacked, took showers, got dressed, let the girls open the rest of their presents from Grouchy Husband and I, and then drove to Brooklyn to celebrate Christmas with my family.  It was a busy day.

4 Days of ChristmasMy 9 cousins and I use to take a photo each year in from of the Christmas tree.  We can hardly see the tree now.  Our families has grown a bit.

4 Days of ChristmasMy sister and her family came into town the day after Christmas.

4 Days of Christmas My mom hosted a dinner that night and invited my grandmother and the rest of her family to celebrate another Christmas.

4 Days of Christmas There were more presents to open.  This is 3 consecutive days of present opening for the girls and it was as exciting as the first.

4 Days of Christmas We also celebrated my uncle, grandmother, and brother-in-law’s birthdays.

4 Days of ChristmasOur 4th Christmas was with my sister-in-law’s family.  And if you were wondering, yes, there was present opening.

Cousins DinnerThis year my brother hosted Cousins Dinner on New Year’s Eve.  My cousins don’t all live close so I very much look forward to this time with them eating comfort food and drinking champagne.

Cousins DinnerI brought a crudités plate and cut heaping piles of vegetables to help counter-balance the fried chicken for dinner.  I also brought Cheetos because it is our party food must-have.

Cousins DinnerWe all had a champagne bottle (or two) of our own to drink.

Cousins DinnerThe night starts out with lots of time catching up.  My cousin Karyn (on the left) came in for the holidays from California.  My cousin Cheryl (on the other side of me) dyed the bottom of her hair purple.  So cool.

Cousins DinnerMy cousin James is on the left.  We called him James-y growing up and now we call him J-Poo.

Cousins DinnerMy cousin Karyn is a newlywed and this is her husband Josh.

Cousins DinnerThis is my cousin Artie and his girlfriend Nadya.  She lives in Russia.

Cousins DinnerNadya made a Russian salad for our dinner.

Cousins DinnerThis is Grouchy Husband.  He thinks my cousins are crazy but wouldn’t think of missing Cousins Dinner.

Cousins DinnerDinner is A LOT of eating and drinking.

Cousins DinnerLots of story-telling.

Cousins DinnerLots and lots of laughing.

Cousins DinnerAnd more laughing.

Cousins DinnerThen things start to get silly.

Cousins DinnerAnd our pictures get a little off balance.

Cousins DinnerThen things get a little crazier.

How to Be the Perfect Chinese American Host

November 24, 2016 by ChrissyJee 1 Comment

How to Be the Perfect Chinese American Host
I host everything from dinner parties to play dates.  The Chinese in me likes the cooking and happiness in the gathering.   The American in me likes the thoughtfulness.   From my experience as a guest, here are my tips for being a perfect host.

Goal: Each guest leaves full, happy, and feels like you wanted them to have a great time.  

Abundance of good food.  In Chinese culture food is a symbol of care.  Homemade food will always trump store bought food in a Chinese household so try to cook as much as you can yourself.  To gain face, serve the best tasting food and double the amount you need.

Clean home.  A messy home is never a good look.  A clean home is how to gain face.  And it’s ok to hide everything in an upstairs bedroom or bathroom during the event.

Timeliness.  Americans are much better at this then the Chinese.  Most of the Chinese wedding banquets I’ve been to did not start on time (including my own).  Serve meals at mealtime, desert at desert time, snacks at snack time.  Have fruit on the table afterwards so your guests continue to feel welcome and can leave when they are ready.

Entertainment.  You want your guests to have a good time and not check Facebook on their mobile phone.  Entertainment can be anything from great conversation to singing karaoke to an art project.  Do what you like and feel most comfortable.

Happy Hosting,

Unexpected Journey

November 3, 2016 by ChrissyJee 2 Comments

Unexpected Journey
I started school at the Institute of Integrated Nutrition (IIN) this month.  I have wanted to enroll in this program for some time but have always been too busy or didn’t feel comfortable spending the money.  I had a burst of motivation a couple weeks ago and enrolled.  Really excited!  It’s a 12 month online program with a health coach certification at the end.  I didn’t sign up to be a health coach, I wanted to be more informative on the blog, and feel and be better.

I’ve started the fundamental modules before the courses begin in a couple weeks and what I’ve realized right away is this is not only going to be about food and exercise.  Good health is more then that.  IIN’s theory is nutrition is part of being healthy, but so are relationships, exercise, career, and spirituality.  Joshua Rosenthal, founder of IIN, asked the question if someone who goes home and binges would still binge if they came home to a warm hug and someone saying “I love you”.  Probably not.  After some thought, this theory makes sense.  And after some more thought, this is my life!  I eat healthy, lots of paleo meals, stay away from processed foods, lots of vegetables and meat from the farmers market.  I workout 4-5 times a week.  But this is where my good health stops.  I don’t feel healthy, I’m tired, stressed, and anxious most of the time.

After accepting not being healthy and feeling disappointed since I do try hard to be, I’ve been overwhelmed by all of the things that make me not healthy.  My days are a scrambled mix of working part-time, this blog, designing lucky envelopes, driving my kids to activities, hosting play dates, seeing my friends, connecting with my husband.  This might be similar to your life but for me, it’s too much.

I have to find a way to good health.  I’m very much looking forward to this 12 month journey with IIN.

How to Impress Your Chinese-American Mother-in-Law

October 13, 2016 by ChrissyJee 2 Comments

How To Impress Your Chinese-American Mother In-LawEven though my daughters are only 5 and 8, I think about the people they will marry.  I wonder who will be able to achieve the very high standards I have already set for them or break through the steel and kryptonite wall my Grouchy Husband is building around his little girls.

Here is how to impress a Chinese-American mother-in-law:

Be Present.  Family time is important.  Holidays and special occasions, like birthdays, are events we celebrate as a family and your presence will be recognized and appreciated.  But don’t just come.  Talk and interact with the family.  Be interested, remember what we talked about last time, get to know everyone, let them get to know you.

Be a Rock.  Be happy with yourself.  Be motivated.  Have dreams.  Accomplish them.  Be a good listener.  Be a foundation that is always ready to help and support.

Pick Up the Check.  Not always, but sometimes.  Gaining face is part of Chinese culture so this is your opportunity to show your wealth and thoughtfulness.  Doesn’t have to be restaurant check, can be groceries, birthday cake, or a new refrigerator to replace a broken one.

Manual Labor.  Love is not normally expressed verbally in traditional Chinese culture.  We show we care through action.  I think a work activity is one of the best ways to meet a Chinese family because you are instantly seen as a hard worker and Chinese moms love that.  Girlfriends would come to my family gatherings and wrap dumplings or help in the kitchen.  Grouchy Husband has painted, grouted, mowed, planted grass seed, cut down trees, shoveled snow, just to name a few things.  The first time my brother-in-law came to meet the family, he spent the day trimming bushes and hedges.

Show You Care Without Kissing.  Affection and emotion are not strengths in Chinese culture.  Show you care but not through touching or kissing.  It’s disrespectful.  Carry groceries, open doors, find out who is thirsty, serve others at dinner.

Be Someone We Can Boast About.  Chinese-American moms like to talk about their kids, especially highlighting accomplishments and achievements.  Job promotions, distinguishing work influencing a lot of people, really nice things you’ve done for your family.  Give us something to talk about.

Paleo Chinese Barbecue Pork (Char Siu)

October 5, 2016 by ChrissyJee Leave a Comment

WholenessOne of my favorite things to eat when I would visit my grandparents in Chinatown growing up was char siu or barbecue pork.  The strips of pork hung in the windows and my family would eat them for lunch over rice and noodles.  I’ve been on a mission to make barbecue pork at home that is nutrient dense without gluten, dairy and processed ingredients.  Here is the recipe and share photos of the barbecue pork on Instagram with tag #chineseporkwednesday.

Ingredients

  • 4 pounds boneless pork shoulder (pastured and local if you can get it)
  • 3/4 cup coconut aminos
  • 1/2 teaspoon five spice powder
  • oil, fat, or coconut cooking spray
  • salt
  • white pepper

Equipment

  • half sheet cookie baking pan
  • baking rack
  • non-stick pan
  • silicon basting brush
  • aluminum foil
  • raw meat cutting board
  • cooked meat cutting board
  • knife

MethodPaleo Char SiuPreheat the oven to 425 degrees.  Place the pork shoulder on the cutting board.

Paleo Char SiuSlice the pork shoulder into slabs that are 1/2 inch thick.

Paleo Char SiuCover the baking pan with aluminum foil.  Place the baking rack on top.  Spray the rack with the cooking spray or brush oil/fat on with the silicon brush.  Place the slabs of pork on the rack.

Paleo Char SiuSprinkle salt and white pepper on both sides of the meat.

Paleo Char SiuPlace the tray of meat in the oven.  Cook the meat for 15 minutes on each side.  Set the timer.

Chinese Barbecue PorkAfter you have placed the meat back in the oven to cook for the second 15 minutes, put the stove on medium and pour in the coconut aminos and five spice powder.
When the liquid starts to bubble turn the low so that the liquid starts to thicken.
Once the liquid is covered with bubbles, stir slowly with the silicon brush.

Paleo Char SiuWhile you are making the barbecue sauce, the meat will finish cooking.  Take it out of the oven and set aside to cool.

Paleo Char SiuThe sauce will be ready a couple minutes later.  Is ready when it has thickened to the point you stir it with the brush and it takes a couple seconds for the liquid to come together.

Paleo Char SiuPlace the meat on the cutting board.  I use my wooden cutting board to cut non-raw food.  Brush the meat with the sauce.

Paleo Char SiuCover both sides of the meat and the edges with the sauce.

Paleo Char SiuBarbecue pork is ready.  Slice and serve!

Pan-fried Eggplant Medallions

September 28, 2016 by ChrissyJee Leave a Comment

Pan-fried Eggplant MedallionsMy girls get so excited when I make these eggplant medallions.  They will eat them by themselves, on top of (gluten-free) pasta, on top of rice.  I make a big batch because they make great left-overs.

Ingredients

  • 2 regular eggplants
  • 1 cup arrowroot
  • 1-1/2 cups of almond flour
  • 1/2 cup sesame seeds
  • 2 teaspoons of salt
  • 1 teaspoon of pepper
  • 5 eggs
  • oil/fat

Equipment

  • 12 inch heavy bottom skillet (ex: cast iron)
  • cooling rack
  • 3 bowls
  • measuring cup
  • measuring spoons
  • paper towels

Method

Pan-fried Eggplant MedallionsHeat the skillet over medium heat.  Cut the eggplant into 1/2 inch thick medallions.

Pan-fried Eggplant MedallionsSetup 3 bowls for the crust.
Bowl 1: 1 cup arrowroot, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper
Bowl 2: 3 eggs beaten
Bowl 3: 1-1/2 cups almond flour, 1-1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, 1/2 cup sesame seeds

Pan Fried Eggplant MedallionsCover the bottom of the pan with oil or fat, about 1/4 cup.  I use ghee because it is mild with little flavor.

Pan-fried Eggplant MedallionsTake one of the eggplant medallions and cover it with the arrowroot mixture in bowl 1.

Pan-fried Eggplant MedallionsThen dip the medallion into the egg mixture in bowl 2.

Pan-fried Eggplant MedallionsFinally dip the medallion into the almond flour and sesame seed mixture in bowl 3.

Pan Fried Eggplant MedallionsOil or fat should be hot by now.  If you are unsure, splash a few drop of water into the oil and it should pop.  Cover both sides of the medallion with oil by dropping one side into the oil then flip it over and place the other side on the pan.
Fill the pan with medallions.  It should fit around 6.
After 4-5 minutes when the crust has turned brown and crispy, flip the medallions over.
Cook another 4-5 minutes on the other side.
Then place medallions on the cooling rack.

Pan-fried Eggplant MedallionsWipe the leftover crumbs out of the pan with a paper towel.  Heat 1/4 cup of oil or fat into the pan.  Repeat the coating and pan-frying process until you’ve cooked all of the medallions.  3 – 4 batches, 18 – 24 medallions.

Pan-fried Eggplant MedallionsThe egg mixture in bowl 2 can get thick and gooey.  After coating the second batch, replace it with a new egg mixture of 2 eggs.

Pan-fried Eggplant MedallionsThis recipe makes a big batch.  Store in the refrigerator or freezer and re-heat in the toaster oven.  Enjoy!
