Today is the Dragon Boat Festival. It is a traditional Chinese festival celebrated with many customs. One of the most important traditions is eating special foods. My family always prepares for this festival with joy and excitement. We look forward to this day every year because it brings us together and allows us to enjoy our favorite treats. The festival is not only about food, but also about family and cultural heritage.

My mom made delicious zonzi for us. Zonzi is a traditional food for this festival. It is wrapped in bamboo leaves and filled with sticky rice and beans. The preparation process requires care and attention, as wrapping the bamboo leaves tightly ensures the rice cooks perfectly. Making zonzi is a family activity that everyone enjoys, and it is a great way to teach children about our culture and traditions.

I love eating zonzi with sugar. It tastes so sweet and comforting. My little sister prefers the one with meat inside. We all enjoy this special festival food very much. Sharing the meal brings happiness to everyone, and the taste reminds us of past festivals. Eating zonzi together strengthens our family bonds and makes the Dragon Boat Festival a memorable celebration every year.
