Happy Dragon Boat Festival (端午节)! Wishing everyone joy, health, and the enjoyment of various types of 粽子(zong zi/ rice dumplings). 今年的粽子你吃上了吗~ 周末,阳光明媚、清风惬意。PCAA华人协会策划的“平原社区迎端午特色活动”在社区公园成功举行。Plainview的众多街坊们携家带友,大秀厨艺,分享各自精心准备的美食,一起参与端午节的各种传统习俗活动。大家开怀交流,纵情玩耍,美食美意,畅快淋漓! 端午节,又称端阳节、龙舟节、重五节等,是我们中国人集拜神祭祖、祈福辟邪、欢庆娱乐和饮食为一体的民俗大节。它源于自然天象崇拜,由上古时代祭龙演变而来,也和纪念历史文化名人屈原的典故有关,吃粽子、划龙舟更是连外国人都熟知了的中国端午习俗。粽子的馅料品种各异,形状多样,甜粽咸粽,总有一款满足你!我们的华人孩子们对端午民俗可是如数家珍。看看他们动手做的端午手工,稚嫩的小手像模像样地折出一个个方方尖尖的粽子宝宝,一绕环一打结,仿佛已经能闻到了粽叶糯米的清香! 青青的草地给了我们的“龙舟队伍”广阔的发挥空间!孩子们煞有介事地扶着船身,握着桨,喊着口号一起努力前进。排好了别掉队,加把劲快跟上!奶声奶气的呼喊声中,同舟共济、齐心协力的种子就在小小的心田里萌发了嫩芽。每个胖嘟嘟的小手腕上,还都戴着漂亮的七彩福绳手环,映衬着孩子们满是兴奋的红通通的脸蛋,更添了满满的节日气氛! 刚刚乘风破浪完,大家又聚到广场上拔河啦!一声令下,两方霎时火力全开,围观群众激情助威,场面一下子沸腾起来!小娃娃们的比赛有种初生牛犊不怕虎的猛劲,爸爸们之间的鏖战更是让战局扑朔迷离,一时间号子声、欢呼声不绝于耳…… 美好的相聚总是显得格外短暂,陌生的邻里变成了亲密熟络的朋友,大家在依依不舍中相约下次节日再一起同庆。我们不但品尝到了丰盛的美食,也感受到平原村同胞之间的美好情谊与热情氛围。美好社区互相扶持,幸福生活共同创造,未来,一定会越来越好! 这次端午节特色活动圆满成功!亲人们,我们下个节日不见不散!
