lunch dates

I love going to lunch with students. It is always a treat. They love it, too. So does Ned. It's a win-win-win situation for everybody. This picture is of Gloria and Sophie at a dumpling/noodle shop west of where we live. The electricity was out the day we went, so everybody got big, white tapered candles on their table. At the beginning of last semester I made it a habit to invite students to lunch frequently, so I could get to know them better, and decide what kind of lessons they needed to learn. Now, my students are more comfortable with me, and Ned and I receive more than enough invitations to eat together, shop, and see the occasional Chinese film on campus.

yum yum.
