Chinese Potluck Dinner (Option A)

🥟 How to Earn Your Dumpling Wings:

🔥 RSVP & Commit
If your attendance comes with hesitation, please bow out gracefully. This is a serious food event for devoted participants with clear intentions.

👩‍🍳 Bring a Handmade Dish
Your offering should reflect time, labor, and at least one chaotic moment. Sweat is optional but likely. The final dish should feel like a personal triumph over your own better judgment.

🥄 Bring Your Own Serving Utensils
Without them, dishes become performance art instead of food. Chopsticks alone are ambitious but optimistic. Let’s help the dumplings fulfill their destiny.

📝 Post Your Dish in the Comments Section
Posting early helps avoid an accidental monoculture. One dish is delightful, eight copies is a social experiment. Let’s aim for abundance with variety.
