Leftovers

Chinese people waste nothing when it comes to food. We have leftovers for breakfast, lunch and dinner, regardless of if it's dumplings, pigs feet or green beans. Sometimes we have the same dish all week until someone finally finishes it. Tonight I received a bowl of white soup. It tasted like a mix of glue and play dough, not to say that it tasted all that bad. The description makes it sound worse than it was. I asked what was in it. It's the water the noodles we were eating for the main dish were cooked it. They really find a way for everything.
