My family Skypes over dinner, but sometimes it's not enough
It's Monday evening. My mom, my dad, and I are sitting at the dinner table with our eyes trained on the computer screen in front of us. I say hello in Chinese: “Nǐmen hǎo!” " Āi!" my grandma replies. I see my mom's three older sisters and my grandma eating brunch in Tianjin, China. We're eating dinner in Redmond, Washington. They tease us for eating Costco dumplings and flaunt their own homemade ones.
