Happy Silent Night!






In China it is tradition to give apples as gifts on Christmas Eve. Ping an means safe and sound/peaceful. The beginning of "Silent Night" in Chinese starts, 'ping an ye'. The mandarin word for apple is 'ping guo'. I'm not sure how they all became connected, but I do know that we have a lot of apples at the apartment tonight!
