Made dumplings on the weekend. We've made dumplings many times but this is the first time we made the wrappers from scratch.

We made two versions, one pork, one veggie. The veggie version was made with mushrooms, black fungus, transparent noodles and more. The veggie dumplings are shown here.

Delicious!

This is in Tai Wai, New Territories, in Hong Kong.

This is my cat Monty. Not always the bravest one.

Can anyone identify what this package contains? I don't recognise it. The photo was taken at an Asian supermarket in Toronto.

My name is Byron Martin and I've been running this website since 1999, though for the first couple of years the domain was bfmartin.com. It's a hobby site to fill some niches.

The Dilbert Strip Finder started back in 1999. I'm such a fan of the comic. I keep track of the words people search for and my biggest surprise is the lack of naughty words.

The restaurant review section was added in 2005 by a couple of mates and me. We've been going to Vietnamese restaurants for longer than I can remember and we decided one day to keep track of which ones we like best. After installing a blog package, Pho Ottawa was born. It has had many more readers than we thought a local review site would get.
