My First Ever Chinese Night!

Chinese Night
Last night, I hosted my first ever Chinese Night, and it was a HUGE success!
I started planning this night after I hung out with my friend Susanna who had just come back from China. We both are completely obsessed with China, and spent the whole time drinking coffee, and talking about how much we love China, and how much we miss it, and most of all, how much we miss the food!
So when I went on my family vacation to Cleveland, and we went to the Asian Market, I bought enough food to make a complete Chinese meal for Chinese night!

First I decorated the kitchen all up in China stuff.

I had my laptop with a slideshow of my China pictures, along with Chinese music playing the whole time.

Then for supper, I made 火锅 (hot pot), one of my favorite meals while I was in China.
Hot Pot is a Chinese meal, where the food is all served in one pot. When you go to a hot pot restaurant, every table has a hole in the middle, with a stove, so when you sit down, your waitress brings you over a pot filled with water and spices and oils all mixed together. You then set the pot in the hole and turn on the stove! Once the "soup" is boiling, put in all the food that you ordered; beef, vegetables, tofu, noodles, coagulated blood (my favorite...not!), cow stomach (my actual favorite!) and whatever else you want!

After eating our meal, I made 珍珠奶茶 (pearl milk tea), and we played 麻将 (majiang) I loooove this game. Here's me playing it on a boat on the Yellow River in China.
