Vietnamese New Year Celebrations

This is a relatively text free post because I wanted to share some pictures I took today at the pre-Vietnamese New Year celebration at a local Vietnamese mall.

There is so much red and gold around and I'm sharing just a little bit about my Vietnamese culture.




This is made out of li xi envelopes, which are little envelopes of money that parents give to their children for the year.


I waited in line for 20ish minutes for this waffle. This bright neon green waffle is pandan flavor (slightly coconut and vanilla tasting) and so very good. Not meant to be eaten with maple syrup!

I hope you enjoyed this, I'll be going to Tet Festival this weekend hopefully!

    @Anna It is super yummy although this waffle wasn't full of coconut pieces like it usually is!

    @Heather you're welcome, it's nice to share a bit of my culture
