ThE MooN FeStiVal

The Moon festival is a Chinese original festival which is very popular in China. At this festival, the chinese family are font of watch the moon, because the moon is in the most round period during this festival. Therefore, this is a reunion for Chinese family. In addition, we always eat the Moon cake, its a Chinese original food, we put wheat flour around some sweet food, we also carve some word or picture on the cake, make the cake more special. Unfortunately, we can't celebrate this paticular festival in China, but we celebrated the last one in Iowa City. We had a big party at that day, we were so happy.
