Su Ling offers xiao chi

Today was the first chinese lesson of the year - and our lovely teacher had prepared xiao chi (literally 'small eats') as a celebration. This was particularly nice of her as we'd been horribly slack about doing our holiday homework.

Don't you wish you learned chinese, too?

Here she's offering a plate of shao mai (steamed dumplings) and chun juan (spring rolls). There were lots of guo tie (potstickers) too, but unfortunately we'd eaten the lot by the time I got my camera out..
