Choosing Appetizers Based on Chinese Astrology - the Rabbit

Monday February 2, 2004
Now that Superbowl Sunday (the second most important food day of the year after Thanksgiving) is over, let's get back to astrological predictions!

Today, the Rabbit:
"If born under this sign, count yourself lucky! Other than a slight tendency to gossip, it’s hard to find anything negative to say about Rabbit people. A combination of talent and ambition leads them to financial success, and their naturally cautious nature makes them hang on to it.
In personal relationships, Rabbits are known for their kindness and even tempered nature. On the home front, they use their excellent taste to accumulate fine things. In fact, the worst you can say about Rabbits is that they can be a bit self-indulgent at times."

Recommended Appetizer: Clam Sycee Don’t be afraid to try something a little more exotic than usual. The refined rabbit will appreciate the effort it took to stuff the fresh clams with ground pork and seasonings, and artfully arrange them on top of a clam shell. Be sure to let the Rabbit know that Clam Sycee’s popularity during the Chinese New Year season comes from its resemblance to ancient Chinese money.
