DuanWu Dumpling Festival

Today is DuanWu or dumpling festival to commemorate the death of loyal poet, Qu Yuan who died about 2000 years ago. Now we celebrate dumpling festival with dragon boat competition and eating of rice dumplings. 

My mother is a great cook and I only eat dumplings prepared by my mum. The fragrant glutinous rice dumplings are filled with aromatic five-spiced marinated diced pork and chestnut. I don't like too much rice and prefer little rice but with lots of filling. For me, I just eat dumplings and don't really participate in dragonboat race.
