Today is the first day of cny of the year dog.

The first day is for the welcoming of the deities of the heavens and earth, officially beginning at midnight. It is a traditional practice to light fireworks, burn bamboo sticks and firecrackers and to make as much of a din as possible to chase off the evil spirits as encapsulated by nian of which the term Guo Nian was derived. !!

大年初一是農曆新年的第一天,標誌著農曆舊的一年結束和新的一年的開始 。

大年初一的習俗不外乎就是放開門砲仗、祭祖、到神廟參拜、拜年、吃團圓飯及年糕等,多數是為新一年新氣象取好意頭。

Many Buddhists abstain from meat consumption on the first day because it is believed to ensure longevity for them.

Today, with follow my family traditions, we only can have "vegetarian dish" for whole day;also with a new set of dishes, chopsticks and spoon. !!
