Chinese new year celebration!

Yesterday was Chinese New Year. Happy new year to all my chinese readers! We celebrated it accordingly by making dumplings!

I haven’t made dumplings nor celebrated chinese new year in the US… it was my first time and it was a lot of fun!

we made a lot of dumplings

I was in charge to make one of the fillings (pork with chinese cabbage)

I didn’t know that I had to… so I didn’t dress up to cook

but I worked “hard” anyway

no one was expert on making dumplings. So there was a hot of discussion on how to make a pretty dumpling

we were all from different parts of China, so everyone shared the new year celebration tradition at home

everyone enjoyed the dumpling-making-event

assorted shapes of dumplings

we also had some takeouts.. but they were not very popular because the dumplings taste much much better!

they are all Star’s local coworkers

after dinner… we watched the chinese new year show and had traditional chinese snacks: sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds and peanuts.

it was definitely a fun night~~~

Q: What’s the traditional meal you have at home for new year eve?
