dumplings and hearts











This is my weekend, part 2.

This year, the lunar calendar’s New Year landed on the same day as Valentine’s Day. To celebrate the New Year, our friends had a dumpling making party! We all sat around the table, stuffing and folding, and neatly placing dumplings in a row. To celebrate Valentine’s Day, I made everyone wear a paper heart on their shirt, like in the movie Julie and Julia.

We all ate a lot of delicious dumplings that night. And we all looked so festive!
