Today is the fifteenth day of the eighth month of the lunar calender, we celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival or the Moon cake Festival.
There are hundred types of moon cakes available in the market with fanciful names. My only love is Nutty mooncakes, like the 1 and 2 in the picture above.
Mooncake no 1 is homemade, plenty of almond nuts and melon seeds. Mooncake no 2 is mass-produced, from a famous brand I liked.
Wishing you all a Happy Moon Cake Festival.
今天是八月十五日，我们欢庆中秋节，也是吃月饼的时候。
目前市面上有上百种的月饼，打着标新立异的名字。我的最爱是照片中的果仁月饼，或称金腿月饼。
月饼1是手工月饼，月饼二则是工厂制造。
在此谨祝大家中秋节快乐，好好的享受月饼吧！

The moon cake festival is a special occasion to enjoy the delicious moon cakes and celebrate the harvest. It's a wonderful time to gather with family and friends to enjoy the festivities.
