We celebrated early with a feast last night. My contributions were Mapo Tofu, Sichuan Pickles and Kung Pao Pastrami. Everything was served family style. I can't speak to the cultural accuracy of my dishes (or, I could, but then I'd be forced to admit that they aren't very accurate), but I can report that they were delicious.

The whole spread beyond just my dishes. It was some good eating. Happy New Year all!
