Year of the Tiger
Today is the Chinese Lunar New Year, and we've all entered the Year of the Tiger. We made our own batch of traditional Chinese dumplings (jiao zi) to celebrate. Jiao zi means "money" in Mandarin, and serving dumplings on New Year's day is symbolic of good fortune in the new year. Our dumplings were filled with roast chicken, shitake mushrooms, spinach, and other veggies. And there is the obligatory pic of Bella. She usually sits in the kitchen when we're cooking, right in the middle where we need to walk. Here she's waiting for food to drop from above.
