Reunion Dinner

Poor Katy!  After our adventures at piano and Surdyk's and Coastal Seafoods and Cub Supermarket and with all the extra snow induced traffic, it was really late by the time we got home to START preparing our reunion dinner.  Katy was pretty tired and overwrought, so Mama threw her in the bath with some bubbles specially scented for Overtired and Cranky Children while Dada and Julie did an amazing job of getting dinner ready in a hurry.  Katy FaceTimed with her Hong Kong cousins who got a kick out of watching her have her hair washed.

Dada always says he is the most Chinese person in our family!  He insisted that our reunion dinner be vegetarian, which I had never heard of...so we compromised and had whole steamed fish but had vegetarian jiaozi and noodles.  Katy enjoys wrapping the jiaozi...and we all loved the new vegetarian filling we'd never tried before.  This one was a cabbage and carrot and mushroom filling - it tasted like the Teochew food my grandmother used to make.
 
 The uni was so amazing and just like the best uni we had in Tokyo!
 It was a lovely family reunion dinner!
