Thanks for the info! What I found interesting in your blog, though, is the fact that the Chinese eat something sweet (and something round if I get it right from one of the replies?). That is what we must eat for the Jewish New Year: to have the year sweet and round in the sense of "full/accomplished/without-rough-edges". If two such far-away cultures have the same superstitions I wonder if this is a more universal belief. Do other cultures have this sweet and round necessity for good luck in life? Good luck to you!
