Heh, I added one that has been guess to see if anyone would pick it out. Not Christmas eve, not mooncake day or the feast of sacrifice, although hanging up lanterns and having barbecue goat is fun. Guess guess again.

I like burning things, but it's not Guy Fawkes. Neither is it Hanukkah. Try again...

The french sit at home these days on Bastille day. I'm not gonna storm a prison or anything either. Nope, not Bastille day.
Not dragon boat festival either. I'm sure you'd enjoy watching muscular men rowing more than I do KK.
I have no idea what happens during the Japanese Cherry Blossom festival, so that's not it either. Try again...

Technically, that's the Feast of St. Nicholas, not Christmas, but it is the gift-giving day in the Netherlands.

I do have a favourite holiday and Rocky has got it! I can't get enough of marzipan bread during sinterklaas, and of course, the gift-giving part is just a bonus. BTW, for those who are wondering, I'm not Dutch, but it can't hurt to celebrate the day!
