My year in China: J+122 Christmas with my Chinese family

As you know, to most Chinese people, Christmas doesn't mean anything. Still, a lot of shops in big cities put up decoration and staff members dress as asian Santa people... (It looks pretty special~) I appreciate their efforts! lol
But in fact, their isn't much more to it.
However, last night, I had a long evening conversation with my parents and sister, we all sat down, ate sun flour seeds... (Actually this is my fathers new addiction... Since he has stopped smoking, he eats this all the time; we joined him!)
They asked me a lot of questions about our Christmas, how we celebrate it..
My father was particularly intrigued by what he calls the "turkey buisness"
-price?
-weight?
-cooking means?
-taste?
As soon as it comes to food, he is all ears!
They concluded very happily ~hahaha! Chinese food is really better !"~

They then told me about the Chinese New Year (农历新年), coming soon.
It sounds so exciting!
I will make a lot of posts about this, and beautiful photos.

This morning my parents told my sister and I we could go and buy something we liked, and gave each of us some money, as a Christmas present~
In china it is a tradition to buy some new clothes for the new year, BUT ONE SHOULDN'T wear them before that day. Is is symbol of "new start".
I went out for a long walk with my sister in the morning, she tried on a lot of clothes, but needs to think it over.
