新年快乐！Happy Chinese New Year!

恭喜发财!新年快乐！身体健康！今天是中国的新年。This year is the year of the 龙。I wish everyone a prosperous New Year!
I can't believe that it has been one full lunar new year since I have started this blog. Blogging has been quite an experience for me and I really enjoy it. I thank you readers who come stop by to see what I have cooked up in the kitchen. I'm hoping that more readers come the upcoming year.
Anyway, for the New Year,  I've decided to change my blog layout a bit, to make it more organized. I'm going to make a separate page for the different types of foods I have made. For example, I might make a category for "Asian" food, "Breakfast" and so on.
To celebrate the New Year, here's a really cute Chinese New Year song:

Here are some recipes that can be made for the Chinese New Year:

Baked Nian Gao
Red Bean Sesame Balls
Red Bean Mochi
Steamed Nian Gao　年糕
Steamed Sweet Glutinous Rice Balls
Chinese Steamed Cupcakes (Prosperity Cupcakes) 发糕

However, for the 发糕，I'm going to repost the recipe here. It's seems like everyone loves that recipe and, I've changed some of the measurements for the ingredients.
