Le 6 Janvier, en bons Francais, nous avons célébrer la Galette des Rois en famille et avec des amis a la maison. Les garçons tirent au sort qui va choisr la premiere part de galette. Mignons…..

On 6th January, we celebrated Epiphany with a galette. Who will choose the first slice? Cute!

« J’aime la galette, savez-vous comment?
quand elle est bien faite avec du beurre dedans. »

Affairée a mettre la fève dans la galette. Someone is really looking forward to get a slice…. Mr Mojo!

According to certain historians, this is yet another aspect of Christmas which has been lifted from the Romans, who ate similar offerings to mark Saturnalia, the Winter Solstice. Regardless of its origins, the tradition carries on and many French families will still send the youngest family member under the table to select which slice goes to which person.

Traditionally the ‘galette’ contains a ‘feve’ , a  small ceramic medallion or token of the newborn Jesus, marking the arrival of the Three Kings.

The slice of ‘galette’ containing the token makes the person King, or Queen, of the event, with the right to choose and crown their royal partner (hence the ‘galette’ you buy should come complete with a golden paper crown).

The King or Queen gets to buy next year’s ‘galette and sometime has to crack open a bottle of champagne.

Bobby: can I be your Queen?

Noa: In another life!

CHINA TOWN TODAY – AT THE LOCAL MARKET

January.17,2012

SINGAPORE, is on fire… soon Chinese New Year will be here (January 23rd).

 

I had a meeting in China Town this morning and after I walked though the colorful local market. So unique!

 

Just after taking this picture, an older lady passing next to me, lost her balance and literally felt on me. It was bizarre, because I thought she wanted to hug me and I was surprised, until I felt her weight really falling on me heavily.  Good that I am sort-of a pro with high-heels and did not fell over with her on top me… It would have been quite a scene with my short dress in that place!! and the only one with the golden hair :)

 

Coincidentally, I will be shooting for a magazine soon at this market, I found out afterward.

Modern Family’s Sofia Vergara flaunts her figure in a midnight blue mermaid-style Vera Wang with more than $5 million of Harry Winston jewelry (which included earrings, two bracelets and two rings).
