Quality of Life

The quality of life in Shanghai has just improved. I spotted these Nacho Cheese and Rock Taco flavored Doritos at my local Family Mart in XuJiaHui. I tried the Nacho Cheese (3.40 RMB a package) - not as cheesy as the ones in the States, but still quite tasty. Correction: Careful reading of the package reveals that the name is "Nacho Cheesier" NOT "Nacho Cheese". Hmm.

Qingming - Qingtuan

April 4 was Qingming Festival or Tomb Sweeping Day. The traditional food for Qingming is qingtuan and we have eaten our way through several packages of these tasty green dumplings with red bean paste inside.
