I�m going to some Chinese New Year festivities in town over the weekend. I am also teaching a little bit about it at work. Since I am always as fully prepared as a cub scout I thought I would do some extensive research. Also known as twatting about on the web at the last minute. I just found this:

One of the most popular courses is jiaozi - dumplings boiled in water. Jiaozi means "sleep together and have sons" a good wish for a family.
