I came home from work and the minute I exited my car, my nose twitched with recognition of a familiar scent.

I unlocked the doors, placed Seanna in her given place, thumped down the stairs and exclaimed with joy when I saw this bundle of dumplings hanging down from a bamboo stick.

Turns out, my mother took some time off work today to make these packs of glutinous goodness for our family and a few others.
