Jofanna Bridal would like to announce that today 14th September we'll be open from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. in conjunction of Mooncake Festival.
As for me, I'll be heading down to Kuala Lumpur today and will be there for 2 weeks. Anyone in KL who would like to meet up over a cup of coffee, do gimme a buzz.
Moon Cake Festival: A Mid-Autumn Festival (Chung Chiu), the third major festival of the Chinese calendar, is celebrated on the 15th day of the eighth month according to the chinese calendar but it will be today 25th September for our normal Calendar.
Here are some stories you might not know:
Children are told the story of the moon fairy living in a crystal palace, who comes out to dance on the moon's shadowed surface. The legend surrounding the "lady living in the moon" dates back to ancient times, to a day when ten suns appeared at once in the sky. The Emperor ordered a famous archer to shoot down the nine extra suns. Once the task was accomplished, Goddess of Western Heaven rewarded the archer with a pill that would make him immortal. However, his wife found the pill, took it, and was banished to the moon as a result. Legend says that her beauty is greatest on the day of the Moon festival.
Happy Mooncake Festival everyone!!
