Dumplings

On Saturday we all went to one of the companies buyers houses to make dumplings and then out to KTV as it was his birthday.

Everyone helped make a few, and it turns out that Jevous is a pro dumpling maker, so I learned from him and Lilian, who made the stuff for inside.

When it came right down to it, mine looked the same as everyone else's did, so I must have been doing it right. Kris, however, says that he is not very hands on, but still managed to make two that didn't fall apart.

Lunch time, and only the guys eat apparently. Everyone snacked on the boiled dumplings all afternoon, but then this meal was at 3, and all the guys ate all this. After lunch they fried the dumplings we hadn't eaten yet, and we ate more. After that we went to karaoke, and they brought a cake with for Frank's birthday. What were surprised to learn is that when you have a cake in China, apparently the normal thing to do is smash it in each other's faces. So as cake was being passed around on plates, it was also being passed around on hands and faces. Unfortunately due to the large amount of cake covering my face, hair, hands, and shoulders, I was unable to take any pictures, but I think Kris managed to get one before he went to take a picture of Frank and turned around to receive a face full of cake instead.
