The custom of eating propitious dumplings in some places is rather fun: several close friends get together and make dumplings, while a copper coin, a needle and a red date will be put into three dumplings respectively. After the pleading activities, they will eat the dumplings together. It is said that the one gets the coin will enjoy blessings, the one gets needle will have deft hands, and the one gets the date will have an early marriage.
