Happy Year Of The Monkey!

Gung Hay Fat Choy! Because Henry and I both grew up in immigrant Chinese households, the Lunar New Year brings back fond memories of sharing epic feasts with family…and greedily collecting red envelopes filled with money from our married relatives.

Happy Year of the Monkey! By Michelle Tam https://nomnompaleo.com

(I’m kidding about that last one.)
