It is traditional to give gifts for Chinese New Year. Often, people give red envelopes full of money, but it is also common to give actual gifts as well, usually food, especially to people such as teachers.
I got a pretty good haul this year, as you can see, of pretty typical gifts. Cherries, big Asian pears, a box of Taiwanese snacks, whisky, a nice card, and cans of spicy tuna fish. Well, to be honest the tuna fish, which was from my boss, is not typical at all. (And I'm really hoping that that wasn't our new year's bonus!)
