Just some things to carry you through the weekend starting Friday, April 17, 2020.

• I just read Wei’s Dumpling Guide and now I’m pretty excited about making some Chinese dumplings in a weekend or two. And also, spring onion pancake (because I love green onions), cucumber salad, homemade bao (because, hello? Bao!), and of course, I’ll start by making my own chili oil. 
• The Public Domain Review is giving away a free coloring book you can download.
• Rebecca Solnit talks about what the current crisis can teach us about hope.
• The long walk is sad and touching and makes you appreciate life. (And if that gives you a case of the feels, there is also this.)
