Chinese New Year - Wilson Style

When our friends, the Peng family, were living in Nebraska, we were able to sample many of Cailian's famous dumplings. Before they returned to China, I was able to get a photograph of her recipe in her own handwriting. So for Chinese New Year, we gathered with friends and tried our hands at making Cailian's dumplings. Who would have guessed the secret ingredient would be sauerkraut?

We greatly missed the Pengs, but were able to share some great memories together.

They're getting the hang of it, but Ted won't look at the camera.

The dumplings look pretty good. Of course, they turned out REALLY big, so we had to photograph them on a huge platter to make them look more normal-sized.

Kid tested - and approved.
