Shiet, buy some ground pork for me at your grocery store and I'll make more dumplings to go around. H-Mart was $3.19/lb!

Hey guys, I wanna do another run on iFS catering on Saturday, I will make sandwiches again with side salad and chutney, i can make enough to feed 5 people (pete, wook, mel, me, and nigi chigi, if he comes). I should be in the office around 12-ish. let me know if you guys are interested. (mel, you don't need to eat fried rice on Saturday...i think you have suffered the most, I really admire your effort.)
