in the NEATEST places! For those of you that don't know, I am half chinese. I try to pass on certain things about the culture to my kids. I don't think they look chinese at all.
The only 'chinese' think about them is the fact that the BOTH like to eat their noodles & rice PLAIN. Nothing on them at all, no sauce nothing. I call it jail food. Because, quite honestly, it is! And who wants to pay $3-$4 for a kid's meal that is just plain noodles? I just think of how many boxes of noodles that would pay for at the store lol. So, being the mom that I am, usually order spaghetti with the sauce on the side so I can share with G. L's getting better about trying stuff on noodles, but her favorite is still plain noodles.
Anyways, here's a chinese dessert I like that phonetically spelled is called Taun-ren. They are little balls of dough with a filling. L's favorite are the peanut ones and mine are the red bean ones. I also like the black sesame ones too.
I made L some and that's what she found in her bowl... now some might not see it without a little help from me... as shown here:
Or this one, which, oddly enough, reminds me of Gloria from Madagascar! lol
Have a GREAT day and I hope you find a smile or two!
