Everybody in America is touched by the country of China. Indirectly, we come in contact with many goods the Chinese produce. A trip to Walmart can give the average American 29 products from China in his shopping cart. In fact, many of the essential facets of our daily life are satisfied by this country.
We have come in contact with a direct link to China through our visit last night to a restaurant in our neighborhood and met a waitress from, you guessed it, China. Grace Wang had some extra time and was able to sit down with us and share a bit of her history. She is an exchange student who is studying the Albanian language and wants to become a librarian. We were impressed how well she can speak Albanian and then she mentioned she studied Albanian in China for 2 years. This fact really surprised us not knowing of any country in the world that offers Albanian as a language choice for study. The photo also includes our friend Vera, who was joining us for dinner.

I'm so glad you got her picture and her name! She was so sweet! She probably knows our family as "the sweet and sour chicken and fried rice" family. One of my favorite birthday meals ever, though!
