Zodiac sign
Overview
Tomorrow is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. In most areas, it is the custom to eat glutinous rice balls, but the custom in Jiaodong area is to steam the zodiac signs. Although I am an authentic southerner, I have been in Shandong for a year, so I follow the local customs, so I will follow the trend and learn to make some simple zodiac signs. In addition to several zodiac animals, a few additional little hedgehogs are included, because hedgehogs are auspicious things that can help make a family rich. After the hedgehog is made, it is placed in rice cabinets, grain stores, noodle boxes and other places to pray for abundant wealth in the coming year and inexhaustible supply.
