我愛嘔吐物

Guacamole - "What a terrific treat !"

這個狀似嘔吐物或異形分泌物的一Pat嘢，係大小兒子搞的小兒科習作。

在超級市場購物時，大小兒子照例不知所踪。待發現他們二人行踪時，竟然發現他們在蔬果部認真選購。我當然唔會多事，由得他們自由發揮，只要負責掏鈔票付款就好了。最後他們買了Avocados, Onions, Tomatoes, Limes, Chili Peppers, Black Peppers, Coriander, 以及 Organic blue corn tortilla chips。

其實我一向不喜歡吃狀似 puree 的食物。我認喎，我係注重外表多D；但勢估唔到大小兒子E樣唔似我，懂得欣賞內在美。最後煮飯仔的成果亦著實不錯 !!! 我地一路食住有愛的嘔吐物，一路圍埋看 The Thing，特別有感覺。

I had tried guacamole in Mexican restaurant several years ago but I have never tried the guacamole or any kind of dips prepared by my sons.  What a wonderful treat !!! BTW, I think guacamole will also go well with tacos and burritos.

 Who can bear the throbbing pain of migraine ?

說長不算很長，跟它糾纏只不過二十多年吧了。跟它絶對沒有難捨難離、但每次的交集都肯定是死去活來；要不就來個典床典蓆，要不就痛個錐心泣血。談不上交心，但已經要了我的命。老早就應該遠離它；但好死唔死，它叫極都唔走，仲要苦苦相纏多年。好吧，離不開就嘗試一下和平共處。但自問不是自虐成性，已經搞到要拍丸，無理由仲要自甘墮落、忍氣吞聲，掉價到要同偏頭痛和平共處？對於偏頭痛，真的是忍一時就風平浪靜？退一步真的會海闊天空？

Wee Sing

Spiderman, Spiderman, Does Whatever a Spider Can

I've never liked singing songs except when I shared the joy of singing children's songs and fingerplays together with my son. 

• Eentsy Weentsy Spider
• Clap Your Hands
• Hickory, Dickory Dock
• Three Little Monkeys
• Jack and Jill
• Where is Thumbkin ?
• Five Little Fishies
• This Old Man
• Little Peter Rabbit
• Bingo
• Old MacDonald Had a Farm
• One, Two, Buckle My Shoe
• The Alphabet Song
• Ten Little Fingers
• Rain, Rain, Go Away
• Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star
• If You're Happy 

Indian version of "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" that my sons like recently

Boy, I can still remember these were on our favourite playlist.  So, can you remember too ?

Back then, I was originally aiming at the benefits of language development, muscular coordination, body awareness, rhythmic proficiency rather than the mere enjoyment of music.  But, I ended up enjoying it mostly for the intimacy and the joyful experiences together.  I hope you enjoyed it too.

Runaway 走咗就唔好返嚟

Tonight when I went home, I saw 'Mickey'. Even before I could say "hello" to him, he had already run away.

It's good that he is running from our front yard to our neighbour's front yard.

It's bad that I don't know if I can stop him from coming back.

The Best Way to Drink Yakult

Haha, I do have something in common with the Rooftop Prince - to drink Yakult in a row with a straw.  I bet this is the best way to drink Yakult.

知我者....

在愚人節、兒童節、清明節收到數箱從香港寄來的零食；林林總總，甜酸甘辣都有。

大家可以想像一下，在一個氣悶的下雨天，吃著有愛的媽媽腸加百力滋，嗒落一定係甜嘅。不知在清冷的下雪天，整翻包魷魚絲加超力銀絲米粉，感覺係唔係特別温暖呢？問題係：數箱零食可唔可以存活到下一個冬季呢？

以零食為樂的日子、以零食為伴的日子、以零食為正餐的日子；都是好日子。真係，知我者。。。。

仲有一箱未收到，唔知使唔使等到感恩節呢？唔知又有Ｄ咩呢？

P.S. : 其實，我以前未食過粒粒粟米魚肉腸及黑椒魚肉腸，味道OK啦﹗D陳皮唔係好得，但如意欖OK喎﹗點解大肉腸得一條咁少？應該買多一條，改成雙節腸；有得食仲有得玩，你話幾咁好呢？

正豬頭丙

其實唔知點解會叫人做豬頭丙....
其實唔知點解咁多人鍾意食豬頭....豬頭肉、豬面肉、豬耳、豬鼻....
其實唔知E個豬頭造型係採耳前定係採耳後呢？係修鼻毛前定係修鼻毛後呢？

Goodbye Yesterday

先來狂風暴雨的一天，

再來大雪飄來的一天，

今天可是陽光明媚又燦爛，

而園裏的花兒亦突然蒲頭向我示好。

抬頭望著藍天白雲，想著

明天又是甚麼光景？心裏

竟然有種說不出的期待。

A Latte or A Love Song

Love you like a love song ?  I have never thought of loving someone like a love song.... I listen to many love songs everyday.  My son said the song represents Gomez's rhapsodizing of the 'you' persona in the song. I may not understand the meaning of the lyrics but I know that only elementary school kids like this song.

The music video is amusing and looks like those from the 80s and 90s - though I like the Chipettes' version more.

How wonderful it is to start every day with love and a latte !
So if you want to love me like a love song, please love me like a latte instead.

關於伴侶︰

伴侶不是結婚時發願非你不娶或非你不嫁的那個人，而是發現你身上有許多缺點仍然選擇你的那個人；伴侶不是生活中你愛吃黃瓜他也愛吃黃瓜的那個人，而是你吃蛋清他吃蛋黃的那個人；伴侶不是天黑了和你一起手挽手走進飯店的那個人，而是守在門口巴望你回來共進晚餐的那個人；伴侶不是和你大談愛情，把“我愛你”掛在嘴邊的那個人，而是和你平淡的嘮叨柴米油鹽、鍋碗瓢盆的那個人。在福祉的婚姻中，伴侶已不是一個具體的人，而是你和他在幾十年的歲月中沈澱下來的︰一份默契、一份溫情、一份平淡、一份理解、一份寬容。愛他就要讓他開心，這就是伴侶........

關於微笑︰

被人誤解的時候能微微的一笑，這是一種素養；受委屈的時候能坦然的一笑，這是一種大度；吃虧的時候能開心的一笑，這是一種豁達；處窘境的時候能自嘲的一笑，這是一種智慧；無奈的時候能達觀的一笑，這是一種境界；危難的時候能泰然一笑，這是一種大氣；被輕蔑的時候能平靜的一笑，這是一種自信；失戀的時候能輕輕的一笑，這是一種灑脫。不管是有什麼事情，為了什麼原因.....我們每天都要開心一笑...........


關於生活︰

日出東海落西山，愁也一天，喜也一天；遇事不鑽牛角尖，人也舒坦，心也舒坦；每天領取謀生錢，多也喜歡，少也喜歡；少葷多素日三餐，粗也香甜，細也香甜；新舊衣服不挑撿，好也御寒，賴也御寒；常與知己聊聊天，古也談談，今也談談；全家老少互慰勉，貧也相安，富也相安。

Reality Show in Valentine’s Day

Today when we were having a test during the class, the boyfriend of a young classmate showed up in the classroom with a bunch of flowers and a paper bag of present.  He went directly to the girl and sat next to her during the class, without any prior communication with our kind tutor.  I sat distantly from that girl and could not see her facial expressions.  She finished the test in only 15 minutes and left with that guy.  After they left, the other ladies screamed and gossiped even though we were having a test.  Most of them were excited with the surprise and said that was sweet. 

Was that really a sweet surprise or just a surprising embarrassment?  May be it was sweet if it happened before or after the class, but never during the class.  Love is sweet if we can make it known to each other.  However, it is corny if we only make it known to some other people. Love is sweet if we can feel the love from each other.  However, it is cheesy if we only show the love to some others.  Anyway, as long as the couple thought that was sweet or thoughtful, how others thought about it was pointless.

狗臉的歲月 My Life As a Dog

今天在別人放狗的公園，看到狗臉的年輪

八十年代看過的 My Life As a Dog 狗臉的歲月、九十年代看過的 What's Eating Gilbert Grape 不一樣的天空、以及 2000世代看過的 Chocolat 濃情朱古力，都是 Lasse Hallstrom 拍的電影。雖然橫跨數十年，但都令人難忘。

Kids, one day when I am tired of your pranks, you spending all day fighting and making me lose my temper, I will definitely separate you two.  Though you don't have any uncle living in a rural village, I can still send you to space like the Russian dog. 

Kids, next time when you want to say I am fat, think about the mom of Gilbert and Arnie, "She's a whale !"

Empathy

唔知係我哭點特別低，或實在淚腺特別發逹；試過開車時聽電台節目講耶穌講見證，自己竟然哭過不停。車子在紅燈前停下時，鄰綫的白人男子按下車窗，「大聲」的問候我。我亦「大聲」的回答他，其實我是感動到喊吧了﹗不要看他一副惡棍模樣，雖然萍水相逢，亦是人間有愛啊﹗謝謝﹗

A random day without K-drama

在沒有韓劇的日子，我們即興吃了韓食。"Kimchi potstickers" 味道真不錯，小朋友及大朋友都很喜歡。我們三人吃了一整包、兩滿碟；肚爆咀油的感覺超滿足幸福。

During tea break in an extremely busy week, we have tried "Kimchi potstickers".  "Kimchi potstickers" tasted really good and both of my kids liked it.

Logical to become a Vegetable

Logical Song

He talked about what he likes to study.

I talked about what’s good to study.

He talked about his dream.

I talked about the living.

He talked about the way to explore.

I talked about the way to survive.

He talked about his life.

I talked about the life in a society.

He talked about individuality.

I talked about the conformity.

What a sensible chat and the interweaving background music is “The Logical Song” – a song that I really didn’t like and understand in the 80s, 90s, 00s but I suddenly love the song in this decade, strange though. 

As a person, I really hope my kids have dreams and work toward their dreams.  And indeed how fascinated it is to have a dream.  As a mother, I’d rather hope they could be vulnerable in the society but I’ve overlooked the cruelty that the society would probably hurt them first. 

Is the Logical Song really logical?  Can we all turn ourselves into Peter Pan? When you celebrate your adulthood, you are actually experiencing a gradual loss of innocence and happiness we experienced in childhood.  Interestingly it is the same world, where you saw it as a magical place and where you are supposed to conquer, comes to tame you, condition you, if not ostracize, ridicule and crucify you.  

When Peter Pan signs up to become one of the masses, following the dogma, he is saved and becomes a vegetable.  Congratulations.

Logical Song

Lovers in the Wind

I tend to get lost in the midst of songs, movies and books and indulged in sort of relevance of reflex images.  When I was discussing with my kid on the way to school, I thought of "Logical Song".  When I was listening to "Logical Song" during the way to the library, I thought of "Lord of the Flies".  When I turn to read "Lord of the Flies" in the library, I would rather listen to U2.  Before I found "Shadow and Tall Trees", I kept on listening to "Lovers in the Wind" though both songs are beautiful.

食鼻屎身體好 Benefits of Booger-Eating

小時候乘渡輪由灣仔到九龍，驚見一名年青西裝友神態自若地食鼻屎，狀甚享受；現在數十年後想起仍覺嘔心﹗翌日回到學校，跟同學仔研究，一致認為那名西裝友係神經佬。原來實情係食鼻屎對身體有益處，是一項既天然又健康的行為；當年實在無知，不應藐視那有為青年....

食鼻屎

星島日報 – 2012年1月4日星期三上午6:30

 (綜合報道)(星島日報報道)話說小孩子食鼻屎是相當普遍的情況，不過在絕大多數文化裏，吃鼻屎都被視為不衞生、污糟、核突、無教養的行為。但食鼻屎其實有沒有好處呢？

　　奧地利肺科專家Friedrich Bischinger說，食鼻屎的人是快樂的人，因為他們身心和諧統一！Bischinger說食鼻屎是令人身體健康其中一種好方法！Bischinger一向鼓勵大家食鼻屎，他說：「在醫學上說，食鼻屎完全有道理，是種很合乎自然之道的行為，當鼻屎落到我們的腸時，鼻屎就是天然藥物，因為鼻屎有天然的抗體和防腐劑。」

　　在二○○七年發表的學術文章《Benefits of Booger-Eating》（即是《食鼻屎的益處》）中，Jane Stephenson將鼻屎和疫苗相提並論，她說在鼻涕中的細菌，當鼻涕乾了成鼻屎後，細菌就都已死或已很弱，當人吃了鼻屎落肚，這些細菌就會幫助人體免疫系統製造抗體，對抗疾病或感染。她說食入的鼻屎會刺激B-lymphocyte，從而製造出抗體。

　　食的鼻屎愈多，製造出的抗體會愈多。

　　這是否表示我們現在就開始要食鼻屎呢？不。因為讚揚食鼻屎有益的專家/學者只佔很少數。待全球超過一半專家/學者說食鼻屎有益時，我們才開始考慮能否改變我們對食鼻屎的厭惡觀感，也未遲呀。
