Dumpling soup

I don't know about where you are, but it's been pretty miserable outside here all day.  Cool, almost cold, and rainy - not the kind of day you want to spend outside.  Thanks, Nor'easter! 

Matt took this picture.  You can't tell how wet those boots are, but they are.

What it is, though, is the perfect day for soup.  A hot, tasty, filling soup to eat while curled up on the couch watching Ghostbusters 2, for example.   Or you know, something else, whatever.  I'm not judging.

The inspiration for this soup was Matt suggesting wonton soup for dinner, and me remembering that I had some dough in the freezer from when I made dumplings a few weeks back that needed to be used up.  One of my roommates a few years back gave me her recipe for Chinese dumplings (Jiaozi), which she also patiently walked me through.  Mine have never turned out as neat as hers, but they taste good!
