That's amore

I must be getting somewhere with Mandarin. At my teacher's suggestion I watched an episode of "舌尖上的中国 A Bite of China," a luscious cooking and heritage tourism television program. (They enhance the delightful sounds of food as it cooks... mmm!) I can pick up a word or two here and there, usually in the subtitle, but not more. Until this -

在中国每个地方都自己的月饼

- a whole sentence I got! In China every region has its own moon cakes.
