Dumplings delivered

The funky stuff here is funky don't get me wrong, but the American style Chinese food that I'm used to eating back home is a thousand times better here. My host mother made dumplings for breakfast today. Delicious pan friend dumplings. Nothing like starting your day with 8 beautiful dumplings and some vinegar sauce and a little warm sweetened milk to wash it down. I'm off to meet John and Debbie and I'm sure an onslaught of their friends at an American style eatery. Time to get my weight up! With Thanksgiving around the corner and what is sure to be a feast with John and Debbie I need to get my stomach back to the size it was in order to truly enjoy the holiday. Thinking of my friends and family today. I miss you guys!
