May 20, 2012 is the “Day of Full Grain” 小满 (Xiǎo mǎn) . From this day on, barley and wheat begin to ripen. The grains become fuller and fuller every day, but are not completely full yet. On the Day of Full Grain, Chinese people have the tradition of eating wild vegetables 野菜(yě cài) to celebrate. Although Grain Fills means that the harvest will come soon, it is a time when the new crop is still growing and the old one has all been consumed. Have you ever eaten wild vegetables 野菜(yě cài)?

Daily Tidbit: 红茶(hóng chá)Black Tea
Drinking tea has a number of health benefits. Now, you can add one more to the list — a cup of this beverage a day can help reduce the risk of developing cancer by shrinking tumors. A new study has shown that black tea 红茶(hóng chá) can help prevent cancer. In the study, US researchers analyzed the compound theaflavin-2 (TF-2), found only in black tea and oolong Chinese tea, which has been shown to kill cancer cells. So when you have time, drink a cup of tea and enjoy.
