We will eat it today“It looks good,” says Lily. “Can I stir it?”“Why do we eat this holiday porridge” asks Lu.“That’s a good question,” Grandpa says. “I will tell you the story. Longago, the Buddha was a monk. Like the others, he meditated. He meditated and forgot to eat!”“Wow!” says Lu. “I never forget to eat. What happened next?”“He meditated for a long time,” says Grandpa. “He didn’t eat at all. He didn’t even move. One day, a girl found him. He was very thin. He lookedsick. The girl tried to wake him. But he didn’t wake up.”Lu put his hand over his mouth. “Oh, no!”“What did she do?” asks Lily.“She went home,” says Grandpa.“She left him?” asks Lily.“Not quite,” says Grandpa. “When she got home, she looked in her rice pot. It was nearly empty. She found some red beans, fruit, and seeds.She put them all into the pot.”“Just like your pot!” says Lu.“That’s right,” says Grandpa. He helps Lu pour red beans in the pot.

She saved his life!”“Wow!” says Lily. “She gave him the first Laba porridge?”“Yes, Lily,” says Grandpa. “She shared her food. And now, we share it with our family every year.”“Is it ready?” asks Lu. “It smells great! Can we share it now?”“Yes!” says Grandpa.
