Sweet dumplings, Sweet lanterns





China has a lot of culture and characteristics. Tomorrow's night will be the night of the 15th of the first lunar month. This is one of our traditional festival. On this day, people usually get together to eat sweet dumplings, which are made from polished glutinous rice and some other stuff. They have sphere shape. Chinese usually boil them to eat, but in some region, people are liking to eat them by fry. When you done your sweet dumplings, you should go outside to have a look at the lanterns. How beautiful they are! There are so many lights in the dark with so many colors. Furthermore, if you like them, you can buy one which you like, then you can hold it and play with it. So many children like this day, because they may get pretty lanterns. When the night is not very young, people may begin to play fireworks. By the sounds and the flashes, you will feel the happiness of people and you warm heart.
Happy sweet dumplings day to everyone!!!!
