And this is why I need a walk-in closet-full of red clothes.
Just in the last 22 days, we wore red for New Year’s Eve, Auntie Kiddie’s Birthday and Mom’s Birthday. And today it’s Gwama’s Birthday. And then it will be Chinese New Year in a few days and then Valentine’s!
Red, Red, Red.
(Just kidding about Valentine’s. I wear black on that day to create illusion of thin. Ha!)
My Gwama at 83. Still healthy, still happy, and still very groovy! 
Even her picture is wearing red!
Fatterside cousins in red
Birthday cake in red
Even Hearty is in red!
Every year on Gwama’s birthday, we go vegetarian. I don’t know why because she loves meat. You won’t find these dishes in Savory’s menu. They’re only for us, Savory babies.
Vegetarian Birthday Noodles (of course the quail eggs are red)
Vegetarian Appetizer Platter: Sausage, Spam, Fish Cakes, Tofu Slices, California Maki
髮菜湯 or “Hair Vegetable Soup”
(Not real hair, of course. Eeeww?!?!)
Mashed Taro in Sweet Cream
Vegetarian Ham and Pineapple with Toast
Vegetarian Minced Duck with Peanuts and Lettuce
Vegetarian Chicken Nuggets
Vegetarian Sweet and Sour Fish
Birthday Buns. Aren’t these babies the absolute cutest?
Almond Jelly with Fruit Cocktail
I get all excited when it’s time to blow the cake because after that we can pull out the
fortune ribbons
