Zhong Zi and a Ninja

This past weekend was Duan Wu Jie, this traditional Chinese holiday where they make this kind of pyramidal sticky rice stuff inside some leaves. My mom and aunt made some and they were delicious!

I also came across a garment that was fit for a ninja. Turns out it's my grandma's..

My grandparents' dog, Xiao Bai (Little White) really wanted some..
