The owners wife

Our landlords live just around the corner, and are really nice. Sometimes when we ask them to come fix something in the house they actually do so, and every now and then the landlady comes with fresh fruit or - on every special Vietnamese holiday - with some traditional food. We have hade little round sticky rice-balls, to be dipped in some sweet syrup, moon cake of course and last week she came with sticky rice cakes, filled with egg and spicy meat and wrapped in banana leafs. It is a little bit unclear for what, but I am sure it had something to do with the moon calendar and a special pagoda visit day.
