Didn't want to put on pants. Did want dim sum. But different flavors. That's how ChefHubby and I decided to make kung pao lumpia, smashed dumpling "tacos", and (pictured below) black pepper beef bao. Happy mouth, happy belly. #WhatsForDinner #Cooking #BakingSky 🍽🧁

Here's the reality: they've backed themselves into a corner. If they bring him home there will be hell to pay. It's clear that they believe that the lesser hell is not bringing him home.
