小白袜存着一颗长久温柔,安静的心。

I get more pretty as I age...

Its really strange...I am getting prettier as I age. Heard someone said that Chinese women age gracefully. Seems I really agree with that.
 
I was looking thru the old photos and I don't even want to scan and upload my old photos....
 
In fact, I really looked like the Taiwanese singer 纳豆 in girl's dress in the past! (try to visualise...)

Food for thought...small cath thinking

While looking at the China Yunnan photo...small cath was thinking...
 
Since very young, small cath has been listening to her grand-mama, about her life...and she was rich, and her family has a car in that time...! And she talk about her papa, went to china for revolution. Why small cath's great-grand papa gave up his business, leave his family, and return to China for a revolutionary cause? He gave his energy, time, fortune... up everything...really everything, for China!
 
Now her great-grand small cath...pondering, what was he thinking that time? Hmm...
 
Think...its the blood that flows in small cath too...
 
She has something very in common with her great-grand papa ...Red heartChina

Dissertation and Brass family dinner

 
It was a great day! After a day of 'self-declared off' from JW mains and Chinese service, it was refreshing. After serving for so many months in a row, a day for small cath herself is necessary...If no rest, she felt like serving as a routine...
 
A day's off..she met up with classmate, zhangbo, who helped her a great deal in her dissertation. She went shopping, bought some snacks for colleuges, Dorine and Pauline...and now, a new Angline...and not forgeting AK (chocolates in a special jar...beware).
 
After which, was the Brass family dinner..Its her 1st time using her cybershot camera...and she loves it! Took some great shots! Especially the fruits and the prawns...My! Think she really have some talents to take photos...
 
...Today is a normal off day, that a normal person will go through...
 
But for small cath...lots of things went through her mind....a normal day for others, is an extraordinary day for her. It has since a long while that she had a 'normal off day'.
 
After a day of 'self-declared off', she realised she still does love serving...serving the people in service
 
...no matter what she gone through...she still love the One who loves her. No matter what scars she had, no matter what grievenes she has, she will go on, no matter what...past is the past...no point going back and talk about it. Ultimately, we all can't change anything, so no point talking about it. Only thing I hope, is to stop adding wounds upon that scar...small cath already have to go through rest of her life with an ugly scar, please don't inflict wounds upon that scar, else it won't heal...The scar is a reminder of the choices she made, the things she gone through...what happened...and also the best times in her life, and its will always in her memory, and she treasure it...
 
hmm...small cath...in love with simple life, and her little portion of chawamushi...
small cath & chawamushi

云南小吃-过桥米线

xinsrc_4805011416244172513721    云南小吃-过桥米线米线由汤、片和米线、佐料三部分组成。吃时用大磁碗一只,先放熟鸡油、味精、胡椒面,然后将鸡、鸭、排骨、猪筒子骨等熬出的汤舀入碗内端上桌备用。此时滚汤被厚厚的一层油盖住不冒气,但食客千万不可先喝汤,以免烫伤。要先把鸽鸡磕入碗内,接着把生鱼片、生肉片、鸡肉、猪肝、腰花、鱿鱼、海参、肚片等生的肉食依次放入,并有筷子轻轻拨动,好让生肉烫熟。然后放入香脆、叉烧等熟肉,再加入豌豆类、嫩韭菜、菠菜、豆腐皮、米线,最后加入酱油、辣子油。吃起来味道特别浓郁鲜美,营养非常丰富,常常令中外食客赞不绝口。过桥米线集中地体现了滇菜而丰盛的原料,精湛的技术和特殊的吃法,在国内外享有盛名。

    过桥米线已有100多年的历史,它的起源还有一个美丽动人的故事。

    过桥米线最初起源于滇南的蒙自县城。相传在城外有一个南湖(现在犹存),湖水清澈如碧,湖畔垂柳成行。湖心有个小岛,岛上不公有亭台楼阁,而且翠竹成林,古木参天,景色优美幽静,空气清新宜人,是附近学子们攻读诗书的好地方,有个书生到湖心的小岛去读书备考,但因为埋头用功,常常忘记吃妻子送去的饭菜,等到吃的时候往往又凉了。由于饮食不正常,天长日久,身体日见消瘦,贤妻十分心疼。有一次,妻子杀了一只肥母鸡,用砂锅熬好后送去,很长时间仍角温热,便用当地人喜欢吃的米线和其他佐料放入,味道很鲜美,收生也喜欢吃,贤惠的妻子就常常仿此做好送去。后来,书生金榜题名,但他念念不望妻子的盛情,戏说是吃了妻子送的鸡汤米线才考中的。因为他妻子送米线到岛上要经过一道曲径小桥,书生便把这种做法的米线叫做"过桥米线",此事一时传为美谈。人们纷纷仿照书生妻的做法吃米线,过桥米线从此流传开来。经过后人的加工改进,过桥米线越做越好,越传越远。
