I’m just back from Vermont–celebrating the Year of the Rabbit, which officially began on February 3, but is a ten day festival, so you can eat a chocolate bunny on Valentines Day if you want.
Vermont has more snow than Rhode Island, and more fell every day. I learned how to make some Chinese recipes, which will cut my food budget and make several restaurants sad.
The Year of the Rabbit is supposed to be more peaceful and people will be more engaged with their families. We’ve just finished the Year of the Tiger, so expect a different vibe.
I’m glad for good friends and two New Year’s parties every year.

I’ve always liked rabbits, they’re so peppy and yet so quiet. Here’s to a peppy and quiet year in which we all wake up feeling bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.
Rabbits are great unless yu’re growing plants in the yard.
