   Homemade jiaozi 餃子 and tangyuan 湯圓 (glutinous rice balls, in our house, usually filled with sesame or peanut paste, in fermented rice and osmanthus wine soup; or savory fillings with meats/vegetables) from previous winter solstices.

   Northerners eat dumplings 🥟and Southerners, tangyuan — the idea is to eat something warming to the heart and belly.

   I love that dumpling jiaozi eating is to “preserve your ears” 安耳朵 from the cold, because 🥟 resemble👂!
