"  As much as I would like to prepare a feast for the holiday, I simply don&amp;#039;t have the time tonight. This weekend, I&amp;#039;ll put together a big meal with traditional celebratory dishes. Tonight, I&amp;#039;ll make the one thing that comes together quickly and easily-and symbolizes long life. Noodles! Last week, the New York Times showcased the art of hand-pulling noodles. It&amp;#039;s a super-cool technique I&amp;#039;ve long been fascinated by and would love to learn someday. In the meantime, I&amp;#039;m picking up a pack of noodles from the market. I love stir-frying them, but on this cold night, I&amp;#039;m making noodle soup instead. Dumplings are, of course, the perfect accompaniment. Because they look like little coin purses, they represent prosperity for the year ahead. Dumplings from scratch are another weekend project. Tonight, I&amp;#039;m steaming the frozen ones I picked up in Chinatown. (I&amp;#039;m also a fan of the CJ frozen dumplings sold at my local Costco and the Annie Chun ones at the supermarket.) Here&amp;#039;s to long life and prosperity! Happy Chinese New Year! "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
