mid autumn festival 2009 (or, mooncake festival 2009)
The Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as the Moon Festival, is a popular East Asian celebration of abundance and togetherness, dating back over 3,000 years to China’s Zhou Dynasty. In Singapore, it is also sometimes referred to as the Lantern Festival or “Mooncake Festival.”

I like cooking and I enjoy it. Let me share a tool I just found earlier today with those who also love cooking. Recipe Puppy is an ingredient based recipe search engine. Is your fridge nearly empty? You can use Recipe Puppy to find recipes that don’t require a trip to the store.
It can find recipes that fit your dietary requirements or combine two seemingly unrelated ingredients. Recipe Puppy makes it easy to find the recipes you actually want in three simple steps:
1. Pick a dish (ie pasta, green curry, pizza, chocolate chip cookies)
2. Select the ingredients you want to use
3. Get a list of recipes you can make
Following the success of the event in 2008, the Asian Food Delights 2009 showcases a gastronomic spread of Asian Cuisine and promotion of healthy living for adults & kids alike.
Look out for new products and great buys at attractive prices. Free admission.
