Lunar Year of the Rabbit 2011

The Lunar Year of the Rabbit sees carnations as the main character for all flower arrangements. :D

Arrangements for the columbarium had beautiful dual tone tulips for added splendour. 

The CNY office festive giveaway includes (from L to R) cashew nut meringues, double chocolate chip cookies, and traditional cashew nut cookies.

Same combination for home in larger quantity and with festive adornments for the containers. :D

Rabbit Agar Agar to welcome the Lunar Year of the Rabbit!
