Making Dumplings!

My chinese neighbours invited me for dumpling making on CNY eve. It's a tradition for the Chinese from northern China to make dumplings on the first day of CNY. Since i only know how to eat dumplings, i watched them in anticipation...

Half way through the dumpling making, suddenly all the lights went out! Some fuse or some electrical thing just decided to go kaputt and threaten to destroy our dumpling making session! But thankfully, there's something more reliable than electrical appliances...

Candles in all shapes and sizes

ganz romantisch lah...

I also decided to join in...

The other guy is from malaysia and also clueless on how to make dumplings

In the end after about an hour of work, we all sat down for a nice and romantisch candlelight dinner... The dumplings they made were superb! The skin and the filling was nicely done and it was soft and smooth.... Of course there were a few dumplings that were tough and looked mutated. Wanna guess who made those???
