Birthday cake and eggs


Even though I am no longer young and am married, on the day of my Chinese birthday, my mother will, without fail, go to the neighbourhood cakeshop to buy a simple cake and boil eggs for me.  The eggs are coated with a type of red-pinkish colouring and the whole family will eat at least an egg for the day.  Simple family tradition.
