I guess it is appropriate--especially given all of the concern about the end of the Mayan calendar.
I do like Chinese food, too.
I wonder how they came up with the creatures that grace their calendar.
But it sure does make the year exciting, and magical when considering a dragon. It has to be better than a rat. Or a snake, which is next year.
It is kind of fun to transition through a year and celebrate all of the different means by which we reckon time.
And writing of fun stuff, the California Gold Rush began on this date in 1848. I don't know how that ties into Chinese New Year, but it was an interesting fact.
