Before the New Years Eve (除夕) feast first give thanks to all the gods/spirits for the outgoing year


the general idea is to show gratitude for all the resources one has available

There's three staple items for this, pork (health), chicken (起家 family), fish (餘 surplus) and some fruit

"Wait, why the pork? What's with the extras?"
"It worked last year, and the year before, don't rock the boat"🤭

Next up will be to give thanks to ancestors with the remaining prepared dishes for new years eve feast.

Traditionally the spring festival there's 23 days of celebration, the original idea is to prepare enough food for the entire duration since no one works during the holidays as everyone is traveling from one family reunion to the next.

In modern times work starts on day 5 in most places and ends day 15 for lantern festival😮‍💨, fiat ruins everything(?)
