How about some scrumptious dumplings today?
Some of you sisters might have caught my posts in Instagram and Facebook last weekend. I made dumplings or Zongzi 粽子.
It has been over a decade since I made them but seeing the ingredients and materials for making dumplings sold everywhere in Singapore, I was inspired to take on this backbreaking task. Added to this, now that I am home, I know when I make them, there will be mouths that will eat them! Kekeke! 😄
Today is the actual day of the Dumpling Festival. “Happy Dumpling Festival” to all our sisters at ParkSihooSsi.com who celebrate this occasion.
This day is in remembrance of Qu Yuan, a much loved minister and poet from China’s Chu dynasty (340–278 BC). He advocated reformation and cared deeply for the people, angering the King who banished him. When Chu fell into enemy hands, Qu Yuan committed suicide by drowning himself in the Mi Luo River.
Happy Dumpling Festival! Enjoy a feast!
The people who loved him threw steamed rice wrapped in reed leaves into the river to keep the fish from eating his body. Since then, this tradition has been celebrated yearly, though made much more commercialized and many young people no longer remember its beginnings.
“Happy Dumpling Festival”!
We celebrate the occasion with our Hoo Family…and I am sure even though he is Korean, our Oppa Park Sihoo-ssi will send his regards to his Chinese fans. Every scrumptious dumpling is filled with love and care, particularly during these unprecedented times. 粽情端午! 姐妹们多多保重！

粽情端午!
上周末，有些姐妹们可能在Instagram 和 脸书Facebook 上看到了我的贴子。我包了粽子。
已经十多年没有包粽子了，但回到家乡，看到新加坡到处都卖包粽子的材料，灵机一动，就决定自己做这会花好几个小时来做的任务。再加上，现在回家了，知道当我包粽子，会有嘴巴会吃，所有有灵感！哈哈哈！😄
今天是端午节的正日。祝所有在ParkSihooSsi.com 庆祝这个节日的姐妹们“端午节快乐”！
Homemade filled with love
这一天是为了纪念中国楚朝（公元前 340-278 年）备受喜爱的大臣和诗人屈原。他提倡改革，深切关心人民，激怒了楚王，所以被放逐。楚国落入敌手，屈原投河自尽。爱他的人们把裹着芦苇叶的蒸米饭扔进河里，以防止鱼吃他的身体。从那时起，这一传统每年都会庆祝，但变得商业化，而许多年轻人都不再记得它的起源。
“端午节快乐”！我们的厚家族，我们一起来庆祝…相信即使他是韩国人，但偶吧Oppa施厚君也会向他的中国和华人粉丝们致以问候。每一粒美味的粽子都是包着满满的爱和关怀，尤其是在这前所未有的时期。 粽情端午！姐妹们多多保重！
