The custom is based on the traditional farewell ceremony for T'sao Wang, Prince of the Oven, before he leaves for his annual trip to heaven to report on families' good behavior during the year.

when is Kitchen God Celebration 2010?
We haven't finalized the 2010 Multicultural Calendar yet. But, I believe this event will be on Feb 14th, 2010.
The calendar will be available around Sep 1, 2009 at:

===========
The Kitchen God's celebration lands on the 23rd day of the last month of the previous year. In this case, it lands on February 6th, 2010. This year, New Year happens to land on February 14th, 2010, which is also the American Valentine's Day.
