Siomai or Shumai: Steamed Pork & Shrimp Dumplings
Confused as I am about how its spelled? There are a lot more, just try to Google "siomai". Apparently there are a number of ways to spell "siomai" as to how many variations it has. Siomai recipes varies from region to region and from country to country.
The term "siomai" or in the traditional Chinese 燒賣 or 烧卖 in simplified Chinese, literally means to cook and sell. So I guess you might want to double check on your Chinese character tattoo if the someone played a prank on you. :p

Chocolate Banana Marble Bars: Modified Banana Black-Bottom Bars
I was planning to make Kahlua bars but my mom wanted to have me bake another banana bread. Seriously, they can't seem to get enough of the stuff! I tell you it's a comfort food, anti-depressant and all.
So I was preparing mash bananas while I was sulking a bit because I really wanted to make bars. They're easier to eat and store. So my curious self wondered, are there any interesting banana recipes? I went online and browsed through Banana based bars; I got intrigued with Black Bottom Bars from eHow.com. What made it black bottomed, cocoa. Hmmm... chocolate and banana sounds mighty nice.
