Our first stop was the Salt Lake City public library where they had a photography exhibit on display called 24 hours in China. About 100 photographers traveled across China for 10 years capturing the daily lives of Chinese people.
From there, we headed to dinner at the Dim Sum House where we indulged ourselves with egg drop soup, eggrolls, potstickers, beef rice rolls, BBQ pork buns, spareribs in black bean sauce, and orange chicken. I hadn't had dim sum since my time in Hong Kong so it was nice to find such a fun, tasty place to eat right in my own backyard.
We headed back home, got the girls to bed and then wrapped up our evening making Chinese sugar egg puffs. Yummy fried dough rolled in sugar. What's not to love?
Jason also admired the little lantern and bamboo scroll I'd made. The scroll has a poem on it in Chinese that says "A husband and wife, deeply devoted--even if the seas should run dry and the rocks crumble--is a heavenly blessing to be revered and treasured for the walk of life, past the doors of death, and into all eternity." Or at least that's what me plus the internet plus my tracing abilities say it says.
