2/23/10 dinner沒辦法,除非我們不吃菜,否則還得捱一陣子昂貴的蔬菜.
幸好今天的芥蘭又甜又嫩.我們之前吃過的菜心真的不好吃... 不過最慘的應該不是我們,而是菜農菜販吧.辛苦您們了!
還有食極都有之二 - 五香卷.原來我媽除了今晚拿了一條出來煎以外,還有三條呢.(不過太好吃了... 多多都無妨.)
還有還有老媽說今晚用了好多心機去煎的煎鯧魚,所以寧舍好吃!
還有還有還有昨晚的青紅蘿蔔西施骨湯.青紅蘿蔔都是有機市場買的,沒有說特別甜,可是吃下去有一種愛心(!)的感覺.昨天老媽去了遊樂,所以湯沒有煲夠鐘,味道就偏淡了.今天應該是多煲了一兩個小時吧,所有鮮味都出來了.真的不能馬虎哦.
Wah I just discovered this blog of yours! I love your heart-warming descriptions of your home-made meals :) I wish I'd paid similar attention to my mum's cooking when I was living at home with my parents. Now I have to ring her about how to cook even the most basic Chinese dishes (like steamed "water eggs"), and I still haven't attempted to make my own Chinese soup yet... ever! Am ashamed to admit that, though I'm more than 30 years old, my dad or my brother still have to occasionally bring me my mum's home-made Chinese soups (as they drive but I don't).
ReplyDelete(And oh, my parents row a lot as well, even on CNY day this year. As the eldest daughter, I've learnt the hard way not to intervene except to tell both of them off for being immature, as my instinct is to protect my younger siblings from upset. So we have learnt to try not to blame ourselves for our parents' differences (or at least that's what I say to my little sister and little brother), and we've learnt also to not to try to be the mediator, as that would inevitably put us in the line of fire and cause more problems, since we'd be asked to take sides. 'Tis very hard indeed, but it might help to remember that the best way of helping them is to give them space, listen when they need to gripe, and just carry on, and try not to let their rows affect you, although of course we're all affected by our parents' relationships...)
Take care (and hope you'd forgive me if I'd said too much...)
snowdrops: thanks for your message! *hugs*
ReplyDeletei've gotten lazy though. if you sample through the earlier posts, they were actually written with more efforts. it's actually very tiring to keep it up. there was a period that i couldn't write every day but only kept drafts (with not much notes) so i've omitted a lot of details in the end. :(
about parents... (sigh, apparently it's also quite a universal problem.)
i agree the part of not taking side, especially that i'm an only child so taking side makes me feel bad though sometimes i think it's obvious that one side was definitely more wrong than right. but not taking side sometimes poses problem, too. anyway, it's just very annoying when times like that come up. :P
