We usually celebrate New Year with the family. Sometimes, my grandparents join us. My mom cooks a lot of food and table is full of delicious dishes. We wish each other best in new year and we make resolutions to come true.
ReplyDeleteSome people, especially young meet New Year in the street, in our boulevard which is very beautiful. They drink champagne with their friends and then continue somewhere.
ReplyDeleteIt is interesting to know what they call "dumplings". We also have such dish but we don't eat it on New Year, we usually make dumplings in cold weather.
ReplyDeleteI like New Year very much, we receive guests and also visit friends on the days coming after New year.
I also like fireworks which make the day even more special.
