HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR

Despite all of our maudlin-icity here at the mansion, we do love a celebration and we couldn’t pass up to opportunity to wish all and sundry a Happy Chinese New Year. Chinese New Year is steeped in tradition, ritual and superstition. So here are a few tips to ensure a prosperous New Year:
1: Don’t wash you hair on New Years Day- you will be washing away all of your good luck. (Let’s face it unwashed hair is food for the gloomy bloomers)
2: Wear some Red. Hey if you are going to ditch your black- Red is rather a fabulous option. (Also highly recommended when dancing on the graves of the not so dearly departed.)
3:Don’t use knives or scissors on New Years Day as you might cut off your good luck. Really knives and scissors are always a risk here at the Maudlin Mansion.

Anyway Happy Chinese New Year for February the 18th. 2007 is the Year of the pig!
