Making Hot Pot for Chinese New Year

Hello my faithful blog readers, sorry for my inconsistent blogging. Thanks for sticking around!
I have been busy with work and my three classes at community college. My poor blog has been on the low priority list.

On February 7 we celebrated Chinese New Year with a Chinese friend. 
 We went shopping for ingredients with her and she showed us how to make Hot Pot soup.

Cilantro, cabbage and bean sprouts

          My sisters and I and our friend. :)

“The same Jesus Who turned water into wine can transform your home, your life, your family, and your future. He is still in the miracle-working business, and His business is the business of transformation.”    ~ Adrian Rogers “A man ought to live so that everybody knows he is a Christian… and most of all, his family ought to know.”     ~ D.
