I think that mooncakes are delicious!
-- SectionA 3a-3c
Sherry. Fu
"Thinking of You" -- by Su Tung Po
How long will the full moon appear?
Wine cup in hand, I ask the sky.
I don’t know what season it would be tonight in the palace on high.
Riding the wind, there I would fly.
Yet I’m afraid the palace would be too high and cold for me.
I rise and dance, with my shadow I play.
Men have sorrow and joy, they part or meet again; (人有悲欢离合)
The moon may be dim or bright, wax or wane (月有阴晴圆缺)
There has been nothing perfect since the olden days. (此事古难全)
So let us wish that man will live long as he can. (但愿人长久)
Though miles apart, we’ll share the beauty she displays. (千里共婵娟)

However, a bad man, Feng Meng, tried to steal the medicine when Hou Yi was not home. Chang’e refused to give it to him and drank it all. She became very light and flew up to the moon. Hou Yi was so sad that he called out her name to the moon every night. One night, he found that the moon was so bright and round that he could see his wife there. He quickly laid out her favorite fruits and desserts in the garden. How he wished that Chang’e could come back!
After this, people started the tradition of admiring the moon and sharing mooncakes with their families.
