The Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the eighth month of the Chinese lunar calendar, it's a joyous festival celebrating the harvest (in the past), family and friendship.
One of the most important part of celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival is to buy and give mooncakes to your friends and family.
For me the best part is surely eating slices of a mooncake together....

Yummy Lotus Paste Filling
The mooncake is round, like the moon, and this represents reunion of family and friends. When friends and relatives eat slices of the mooncake together, the moment signifies that they will be reunited in the future. And If you eat mooncakes given to you as a gift by other people, it is a sign that you will meet them again.... all good and happy thoughts! A beautiful tradition.
