Today begins 10 days of gluttony in San Francisco, as families and businesses gather to celebrate Lunar New Year. Given that it's the year of the dragon, lobster (whose Chinese name translates literally as "dragon shrimp") will probably be on most menus, as will steamed fish, noodles, hair moss, and other symbolic foods ...
-from SF Weekly, which lists ten banquet menus you can print out take to the restaurant to use as a translation guide to make sure you don't order the hair moss.
p.s. I know. That's no dragon. That's a yellow-spotted triceratops.

You obviously hauled out your very scientific field guide with latin names in alphabetic order.
It looks exactly like a dragon to me.
Only you would have TWO photos of dragon cookies.
Well, a lobster certainly is a Dragon Shrimp in my book.
Great cookies, by the way. I love the fiestaware-ish colors!
