周末，奶奶教我包饺子。
zhōu mò nǎi nai jiāo wǒ bāo jiǎo zi
At the weekend, Grandma taught me how to make dumplings.
桌子上有一大碗肉馅，还有一叠圆圆的饺子皮。
zhuō zi shàng yǒu yí dà wǎn ròu xiàn hái yǒu yì dié yuán yuán de jiǎo zi pí
On the table was a big bowl of meat filling and a stack of round dumpling wrappers.
奶奶把馅放在皮上，轻轻一捏，饺子就包好了。
nǎi nai bǎ xiàn fàng zài pí shàng qīng qīng yì niē jiǎo zi jiù bāo hǎo le
Grandma put some filling on a wrapper, gave it a gentle pinch, and the dumpling was done.
我也学着包，可是我的饺子歪歪的，像一只小乌龟。
wǒ yě xué zhe bāo kě shì wǒ de jiǎo zi wāi wāi de xiàng yì zhī xiǎo wū guī
I tried it too, but my dumpling came out all crooked — it looked like a little turtle.
奶奶笑着说：“没关系，样子不重要，好吃就行！”
nǎi nai xiào zhe shuō méi guān xi yàng zi bú zhòng yào hǎo chī jiù xíng
Grandma smiled and said, “Never mind. How it looks isn't important — as long as it tastes good!”
我们把饺子放进锅里煮，锅里冒出白白的热气。
wǒ men bǎ jiǎo zi fàng jìn guō lǐ zhǔ guō lǐ mào chū bái bái de rè qì
We put the dumplings in the pot to boil, and white steam puffed out of it.
饺子煮好了，一个个又白又胖，香极了。
jiǎo zi zhǔ hǎo le yí gè gè yòu bái yòu pàng xiāng jí le
The dumplings were ready — every one plump and white, and they smelled wonderful.
我一口咬下去，咦，正好是我包的“小乌龟”！
wǒ yì kǒu yǎo xià qù yí zhèng hǎo shì wǒ bāo de xiǎo wū guī
I took a big bite and — huh? — it was the very “little turtle” I had made!
