Wuhan: Day 22

Hello world, today was the norm for me, BUT! We had the long expected (tang bao) Xiao Long Bao that we always wanted I’m guessing there’s baby dragon meat inside – therefore the name. Also, much delectable soupy liquid can be found within this vessel which also seems like it has a partially-permeable outer layer because we dip these meaty balls of delight into vinegar. So, with the partially-permeable membrane-like membrane, the vinegar can make its way safely to the core of the ball where the baby dragon meat lingers with utmost loneliness. Oh the savory delight of the bao, its taste is very intriguing but it is still unmatchable from the Dim Sum places in Singapore which I visit with 4riends at least once a week. We make it a habit to indulge in such foods as we like to live it like the olden days.

Canada’s Maple leaf has been calling out to me, more and more, I’m feeling very VERY Canadian. Haha relfection on today? There is none, except for the fact that I have satisfied my utmost dim sum need ever since arriving to Wuhan, I don’t think this counts as a reflection but OH WELL! Pictures below! Oh and in one of my past posts, I said that I wanted to feel the cold, longing for it. The past few days its been so cold, and when I felt the piercing cold rain dropping noiselessly onto my shivering skin, I am feeling more alive than ever. Right now, all I want is the warmth of the sun, “I want to sun burn, just to know that I’m alive…”. My adaptability to the cold weather is so poor (but I think I’m very geng, SO! I choose to think I’m warm all the time). If this goes on, I’m bound to have a cold snap.
