The aroma of the fragrant and freshly baked crispy kuih kapit (love letters) filled the air at Block 7 of Pelangi Apartment, Gat Lebuh Macallum in Penang, a reminder that the Chinese New Year celebrations are drawing close.

The elderly couple in their seventies can be seen outside their home every morning making the Chinese New Year goodies, the way they have been doing it for the past 20 years.
