Part I of I-can’t-believe-I get-to-write-things-I-love: indie bookstores! There is a bookstore dedicated to design/architecture books, a bookstore for cookbooks, a bookstore where the books are organized by emotion. We’re a city of readers.

Part II of I-can’t-believe-I get-to-write-things-I-love: dumplings! How to make them (and where to buy the best frozen ones, let’s get real) in this month’s issue of Seattle’s Child. This is my mom making dumplings from scratch:

Roll the dough out into wrappers.

Stuff the wrappers with filling.

Pinch the dumplings closed.

Finished dumplings.

Ready to boil.
