A freind gave a box of Japanese tomato curry, which made me very happy, because I’ve been wanted to eat for long
Friday was my holiday, so I went to supermarket and bought onions, potatoes, red carrots, and other vegetables…..
I love sketching, drawing is a hobby since my childhood, remembered there used to have the desire to learn drawing, though eventually still did not learn art sketching. I did this sketching for my own pleasure and remembering
Washing and cutting are what I dislike to do, but in order to eat I had to cut them into small pieces. Fried garlic and red shallow then put all the vegetables into to frying pan, add in some water and put in curry, I think it is very delicious
I invited friends coming for lunch together. Each of us had two dishes of curry and rice. Hopefully my weight won’t get increased It would be even better if it were spicy flavor,I prefer the food with little spicy, which can helpto burn colories

Thyme is my favorite food plant which
has the aromatic smell that I like.
Wrap around the thyme pot by a piece of fabric that has
small pink flowers on,
this Valentine’s gift forthwith turns to be more dainty.
Leave it by the window balcony, sunset light,
again the life fills in different color.
This year Valentine’s Day has away,
wondering Valentine’s day has actualized how many couples.
This thyme pot and vegetables accompany me and home.
Beautiful apples facilitate thyme to be more brisk.
Sometimes, it’s not compulsory to buy romantics deliberately.
Just add some imaginations into life, there will be
some little amazement and hilarity happened to be
found in many little things.
Cut a beautiful pumpkin into a heart shape.
Make heart-shaped cookies,
put small hearts together for myself.
Love ourselves as well as cherish ourselves,
give ourselves a little exhilaration.
Let our heart fills by colors evermore,
with cheerfulness and ardency.

The word “fish” in Chinese pronunciation is
the same as the word “surplus”.
.
To gain safety and luck, Chinese people especially during
the new year will speak of good words and
get red envelope from the adult.
Fish is every family must eat on new year’s eve,
it symbolizes the coming new year will be better.
This is the sea bass with salt and pepper,
steamed for 10 minutes, and then put on
some lemon slices, chili, green onion,
coriander, pepper, with few garlic thin slices.
Seasoned and mix with red snapper,
this is the fish I made often. 
Put into boiling water for several minutes, seasoned and mixed with lime leaves, lime juice,
salt, pepper, chili.
Salmon with onion and capperi is my most frequent favorite dish.
Year ends with ample surplus is just a saying,
a good saying with a fish can bring people the power.
In the same time with this Chinese New Year,
I also through the fish pronunciation to wish all
the bloggers a very ample surplus year,
good health with good fortune,
and wish all the Chinese friends
a very happy Chinese Lantern Festival,
which is a Chinese traditional festival.
It celebrates on the fifteenth day of the first month
according to Chinese lunar calendar, after this day,
previous year is over, new prospects are coming.

From childhood, had seen my grandfather ate tomatoes everyday.
To the fruits that is not sweet, I was not fond of it.
In order to have me to eat tomato,
grandma made different tomato combinations with other food.
She would make a hole in tomato, inside put in rice and meat or fruits.
All relatives and friends said grandfather’s skin was tight and bright,
without wrinkles, just like a tomato.
At that moment grandfater was already nearly 70 years old.
Remember in that time had grown some tomatoes in yard.
Grandfather would use tree branches to support.
Now, when see tomatoes will think of grandfather,
will buy some tomatoes back home to make salads or as decoration.
My favorite is to put ice cream inside tomato as
grandfather had always done in summer.
In the dream also hoped to have a tomato plant in a pot.

Italian black squid fettuccine,
just as its name it is made of squid and smells a bit of squid,
it’s the fettuccine I’m really fond of.
Last week cooked this squid fettuccine,
without knowing why I’ve been wanted to eat this for some quite time.
For the people who love aesthetic Italian food,
cooking pasta needs to prepare tomato sauce, dcciughe,
noce moscata, parmigiano-reggiano, capperi, olive nere,
garlic, oil…and chilli.
And me, only desire to eat olive oil, garlic, seafood, and fettuccine.
Overall 15 minutes, cooking while frying seafood, very quick, a simple dinner.
Capperi and olive nere are my favorites Italian tastes.
Next time when I cook pasta, will put in these two ingredients.
This time just only cost U.S.$ 4.0, much cheaper than ordering this dish outside,
in additon could add in my favorite ingredients, I love it.

Always eat salmon in restaurant or hotel,
after recent inflation, I would buy a piece of samon as fish steak which
has always been the plan in my mind. On Sunday,
went to the market and bought some salmon, vegetables and fruits.
Fried both sides of salmon into golden yellow color,
it smelled great, after a while put mushroom in together.
Has always been wanted to learn cooking,
learn some Italian food, Thai food, Lebanese food.
Other than the time factor, tuition fee isn’t cheap at all,
thus it has postponed. Could be only self-teach and self-develop.
In UAE, met Mr/s. Gjerde, very nice Norwegian,
they asked me if I know about Norway.
Their asking made me very happy bucause
Scandinavia is the place I’ve expect to go as
I took Scandinavian Airline from BKK to SIN several times
during business Asian trips, I didn’t want to get down the plane,
rather I prefer to take long flight directly to Norway.
As I replied Mr/s. Gjerde that I like Norwegian salmon very much,
they were happily laughed.

Saw champignon mushrooms in market.
Although can’t be compared with the big fresh ones in the U.S.,
should be a nice thing to buy some back home to make mushroom soup.
Put up a piece of my favorite table cloth that has lace border,
which was bought years ago in Taichung, Taiwan.
Walked passed a street vendor and saw this flowery table cloth,
for the rush of time, was unable to place an order for curtain and bedsheet.
This small piece of flowery cloth accompanied me to several countries
due to the migrate of work.
Let it and thick mushroom soup stay with me through a weekend.
An easy way to cook for me is to put in leek as the soup base and some flour with little milk.
Lastly, put in mushroom slices, cream and black pepper.
Home is where the heart is, travel through many countries,
there are always unforgettable things found in the luggages.

Everyday, financial news is all about economy faces downward slide,
from the still-slumping mortgage in the U.S. to the escalating consumer price in Asia,
money seems continued to shrink. Price for food also increased.
To comfort myself, it is a lucky thing to have work,
should fill out myself more meaningful.
For to walk further, home-made food is more healthy and save money,
should reduce the chance to dine out, instead, cook more often at home,
good health is the most important.
For to have good health, everyday must eat several colorful food.
Here, I mix green pepper, yellow pepper, red pepper, orange pepper,
tomatoes, corns, zucchini, broccolis, red carrots, onions as soup.
With salad, I add in some almonds, raisins, and Turkish dried figs,
which have a lot of crunchy seeds, they are delicious, nutritious.
I like dried figs very much and figs contents amino acids, vitamins, offer amounts of calcium.
Hope colorful vegetables can be like a colorful life, bring in
brilliance and wellness,
and share these with the bloggers that have visited my webpages.
