Offering Tang Yuan to Deities on Dong Zhi (冬至敬湯圓)

It's time to honour the Deities & Ancestors before we consumed the wonderfully-made Tang Yuan aka Sweet Dumpings (湯圓).

Due to in Year of Snake aka 2013 (蛇年), there are only 12 Lunar Months, so for this year's Winter Solctise honouring, we will only prepare 12 Tang Yuan (can be 12 in each bowl or separated into 3 bowls), to significate Prosperity & Happiness for the upcoming year.

冬至大過年﹐闔家慶團圓。

 欲食湯圓之前﹐先須將湯圓呈上敬神祭祖。

 因癸巳年沒有閏月﹐因此今年冬至以十二粒湯圓敬之(可於一碗中呈十二粒或將分為三碗)﹐祈求新一年﹐月月平安。
