Oranges and tangerines are symbols for plentiful happiness. Tangerines with leaves intact assure that one’s relationship with the other remains secure. The Chinese New Year Flower Market in SF will be selling supplies for the new year starting next Sat. Feb. 6th.

This is a beautiful orange that a friend from Singapore gave me.  I wrote her and thanked her for the beautiful, good luck orange.  She said we were so Chinese!

The San Francisco Chinese New Year Parade & Festivities begin next weekend in Chinatown, Feb. 6th- Feb.27th.
