article: No Moon Festival is complete without mooncakes, small, rich pastries that you can buy from a Chinese bakery or make on your own, if you have time. They're meant to be shared and gifted to family and friends, so have plenty! Picture pastries, also known as mooncake biscuits or "kung chai peng" in Cantonese, aren't as well known as mooncakes but can still be a tasty dessert for the Moon Festival. They're cookies made from the same dough that you used to form the outside of the mooncakes, and will need 1-2 days before they're ready to eat. To make them: Make mooncake dough by combining flour and baking soda in a bowl, then making a small well in the center and stirring in golden syrup, oil, and baking soda solution. Knead the mix into a dough, then let it sit for 3 hours. Use cookie molds or cutters to make 10-20 cookies, then place them on a greased baking sheet. Bake them at 400F (204C) for 6 minutes. Remove the cookies, brush them with a beaten egg mixture, then bake them for another six minutes. Let them cool, then store them in an airtight container for 1-2 days so the golden syrup can soften the pastry. A Moon Festival dinner offers big portions of delicious, symbolic dishes for the whole family to enjoy. Think about how many people you'll be inviting over and start to plan your meal accordingly. Many families also choose to eat out for Moon Festival to avoid the burden of making a mealit's up to you! like roast pork, a whole chicken, fish, vegetables, and rice. An honor table is a small end table or even a bench that you'll place near your dinner table. Use it to display your ritual offerings, including candles and incense, which you'll burn to honor ancestors. You'll also place your mooncakes, picture pastries tea service, and fruits on the honor table.

article: It goes without saying, of course, that you shouldn't have a picnic near a visible bee hive, whether it's located in a tree or on the ground. Avoid setting up near other locations where bees gather, too. These include: Trash cans. Tall grass (which often contains ground nests). Vacant sheds. Old, unused playgrounds. If you're planning to set down a tablecloth for a patio dinner, make sure that the material has a muted color and a non-floral pattern. Bees will be drawn in by anything with the appearance of flowers, even if it's an artificial material. Since bees are natural pollinators, they will be likely to gather near large, bright flowers. If you have potted flowers on or near your patio, remove these before a party or social gathering. If you're picking a location for a picnic, avoid eating near large displays of flowers, whether they're planted or naturally occurring. Bees are more attracted to some flowers than others. They're most likely to investigate wildflowers, along with honeysuckle, goldenrod, and lavender. Bees also like several herbs, including oregano, thyme, and chives.

Going to bed at a consistent time can help trick your body into better sleep. Set a bedtime for yourself, and make sure you are in bed with the lights off by that time. Don't start your nightly routine then or give yourself 5 more minutes to finish an episode. Be consistent, and you'll be surprised how much easier it is to sleep. You should also aim to get up at around the same time every morning. This helps your brain get into a routine and clearly understand when it is and isn't sleep time. Having an activity or a small string of activities can help let your brain know that it's almost time to sleep. Try reading a book, listening to some music, or taking a warm bath right before bed. These activities not only help signal bedtime to your brain, they can help you disconnect from the stress of your day. Your PJs should help you feel comfortable. They shouldn't make you feel hot or smothered. Find pajamas made of a light, breathable fabric like cotton or linen. These can help make hot flashes more manageable if they strike while you sleep. Think about different pajama styles, too. If you typically wear pajama pants but find that you've been getting too warm recently, you may want to switch to shorts or a nightie.
