滑蛋虾

滑蛋虾

这个应该算是好吃又好做的经典懒人菜。
虾和鸡蛋都是可以在冰箱里面常备的材料。
做法也很简单

虾仁后背切开。取线。(这个好像是叫蝴蝶切法啊。借用牛排里面的切法。)
然后在一个深碗里面打鸡蛋
然后开锅,放油,加热。
把虾仁到鸡蛋汁里面沾一圈。裹上鸡蛋汁。
放到热油的锅里。
  
一只一只的裹。然后一个一个的摆到锅里面。
鸡蛋稍微程固定之后,可以稍微翻翻。
  
虾仁颜色变了就好了。
  
我喜欢老一点的。
就等到鸡蛋虾仁有点焦的时候起锅。
  
注意的是热油的时候,要掌握火侯。如果虾仁裹蛋汁的动作慢,就火小点。
不能太小,这样鸡蛋不容易凝固,就在锅里面跑开了。
  
多练练就好了。
起锅之前撒盐。

后背切开很重要,因为口感会很好,有弹性!

有人问,除了盐,有没有别的料。还有虾要不要做些处理呀。比如用料酒什么的腌一腌去腥入味。还有人建议蘸沙拉酱番茄酱。

我喜欢这种原汁原味调料简单的吃法。而且我也不觉得虾有腥味。食物天然的味道是最美味的,而且这是懒人食谱呢。懒人就是不需要那么麻烦。

Paperwhite Narcissus

at least, that’s what they would be one day……
both my painting and the real plant….that is.

Right now… the plant is doing great, growing and changing everyday.
But my painting is struggling.

Narcissus means Chinese New Years in my book.
Grandpa planted them in a flat rectangular blue ceremic pot filled with water and brightly colored stones.
He planted them at just the right time so they started to bloom couple days before Chinese New Year.
Different plants, same paperwhites, every Chinese New Year.

A sofa bed would be setup for me next to the big desk where the paperwhite sat. That’s where I slept everyday.
Then one morning, the plants would be gone. Water would be drained, too. Only these brightly colored stones and the blue cremic pot were left.

Then, and for the rest of the years, we had to go on without the smell of paperwhite everymorning. The pot and stones were hid away in a dark closet somewhere waiting for next Feburary to come around.
Couple weeks later, my winter break would be over, too. I would head back home with my parents. The sofa bed would be back to being a sofa in grandpa’s study.

Now, that is a page from my childhood.

As I am recounting all these details, I realized why it was nice being a kid.
Everything seemed so grand!! The big desk, the blooming flowers, and grandpa!

我爱松隆子胜过爱木村

恋爱世纪的剧照。
木村让这个衬衫大大风光了一圈。不过,松隆子的衣服也很可爱。他们两个后来几乎一直都在穿棕色情侣鞋。

 距离上次看已经是很多很多年前了,心境也大大不一样了。
 可是还是很喜欢。也在同样地方,重新被感动了一遍。   
 所以真是奇怪,很多东西好像变了,可是又好像什么都没变。
  
 这个情节不算离奇,人物关系不算复杂,连木村的职业都非常普通的日剧,让我看过很多年都一直能记起吃饭,加班,等人,这些细节。
  
 我一直爱松隆子胜过爱木村的。虽然我最喜欢看他们两个一起演戏。
 我最喜欢松隆子在这部日剧里面的表现。
  活泼,又不觉得吵人。
  可爱,又不会觉得腻歪。
  对木村很珍惜很看重,但是不觉得有压力。
  经常言不由衷,归根结底还是非常真性情的女生。
  
  最后是happy ending了。虽然现实中两个人很容易就走散了。
  但是,电视剧就是温暖人心的。
  现实我们都很了解了。不需要电视剧来告诉我们。
  电视剧就是让我们看到天上的明月,而不是脚下的沟渠。

The paradox of our time

(by an unknown author )

The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings, but shorter tempers; wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints; we spend more, but have less; we buy more, but enjoy it less.

We have bigger houses and smaller families; more conveniences, but less time; we have more degrees, but less sense; more knowledge, but less judgment; more experts, but more problems; more medicine, but less wellness.

We spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get angry too quickly, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too seldom, watch TV too much.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often. We’ve learned how to make a living, but not a life; we’ve added years to life, not life to years.

We’ve been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbor. We’ve conquered outer space, but not inner space; we’ve done larger things, but not better things.

We’ve cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul; we’ve split the atom, but not our prejudice.

We write more, but learn less; we plan more, but accomplish less. We’ve learned to rush, but not to wait; we have higher incomes, but lower morals; we have more food, but less appeasement; we build more computers to hold more information to produce more copies than ever, but have less communication; we’ve become long on quantity, but short on quality.

These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion; tall men, and short character; steep profits, and shallow relationships. These are the times of world peace, but domestic warfare; more leisure, but less fun; more kinds of food, but less nutrition.

These are days of two incomes, but more divorce; of fancier houses, but broken homes. These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throw away morality, one-night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer to quiet to kill.

It is a time when there is much in the show window and nothing in the stockroom; a time when technology has brought this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to make a difference, or to just hit “Skip Ahead”…

三十来了,谁来把我推醒?

听说人死之前,一生会像电影一样,在眼前一一闪过。
在我30岁的生日晚上,我躺在床上,我的前小半生,也一一回味了一下。

听很多人说过,他们经历了很多事情。其实,多和少的绝对值很难估量。
全在于在心里留下的痕迹有多深。
因为在我经历这些flashback的时候,我开始不能相信我的记忆。
有些记忆,因为一再被回忆,而越来越走形。
而另外一些,很久不曾想起,突然从背景条到前面来。一时之间,不知道怎么面对。

其实,正如很多过了30岁的人感叹过一样,我也在此时感叹,30岁远没有想象的可怕。
从20岁开始,30岁就像一座大山,一个警钟时远时近的,在那里。
如今真的走到她面前,反而不觉得什么了。 自己吓自己太久了。

倒是25这个没有料到的坎。而真正的全面的经历了一场mid 20 crisis。 这个crisis一直持续着,直到过了25。

20岁前,构织未来,充满憧憬和幻想
24岁前,往前冲 和体验
25岁之后,开始惊叹,人生怎么会走到这一步。自己怎么建立了这样一个格局。和20岁前想象的,完全不一样。一边继续的冲,一边失望。

这一切都是因为,我把30岁,看成人生终点。潜意识里,假定了30岁之后,就是重复自己。
所以在25岁,就为人生感到焦虑。

人最难打败的就是自己
最难衡量的,就是自己幼稚的程度
最难了解的就是自己真正想的是什么。

潜意识。是我们一直在对抗的力量。 正所谓,人神交战的那个对手是也。

我们太热衷于给自己设置障碍了。
到了30岁,才发现30岁这个一直威胁了我很多年的假想敌,其实,并不存在。
好像那个游戏,一直打下来,小鬼一个比一个厉害,到大boss出来的时候,我吓得手都软了。
不敢打了。既然小鬼都这么厉害了,大boss不定有什么怪招了。丢给老公打。结果发现,大boss又大又笨的,和小鬼一拥而上比起来,真算不得什么。

说到老公。我其实对婚姻并不热衷。当然也不反对。我父母婚姻很正常,没有家庭阴影的问题。就是不觉得有什么特别的必要去结婚。
不过,非要结婚的话,我只会和一个人结婚。
他不是我最喜欢的,不是拔得头筹的1和2,3,4,5。。。的关系。
他是我唯一喜欢的。是1和0的关系。

我小时候曾经憧憬,长大后,可以恋爱很多次,和不同人恋爱。多好玩.
这里,我又一次被自己打败了。
也许有些人,一生可以爱很多次。可是有些人,只能爱一次。我是后者。我恨!我不甘!我&×……%……%!
人常说,人生不如意十之八九,我们的爱情是一二。

30是横在那里的翠屏,30岁之前看到的只是这个屏障。到了30岁,转过去看看,发现后面的路和风景和从前的路是一样的。都是留有无限可能和空白的。
只是走过和没走过的差别。

古人说,日三省吾身。 30岁这个屏障,也是给我们一个审视自己的机会吧。

20岁之前,一直被各种束缚在身上绕啊绕啊。
20岁之后,一边扯啊扯掉这些不属于自己的东西,一边又不断自己加上新的束缚

30岁之后,做自然的自己吧。
