北京名小吃“驴打滚”

我自认为是个爱好旅游的女子。那么哪些地方会令我流连忘返,每次回首依然有背起背包踏上旅途的渴望呢? 最吸引我的当数壮观的风景。比如美国大峡谷,黄石公园,中国黄山。置身其中,深深体会到人的渺小。面对大自然的鬼斧神工,一切烦恼随风而散。虽然归来时风尘仆仆,心灵却如沐春风。

Yesterday, my daughter and I were shopping at a supermarket. Before checked out, as usual, I went to the magazine corner to see anything new. My girl passed me a magazine,  "Mom, can I buy it?"

前天去Jack's Place 吃晚餐,惊讶地 (注:不是惊喜地) 发现柜台上已经摆上了月饼。 要知道现在还只是农历六月初,离八月十五整整两个月呢。看来月饼一定是利润丰厚啊,要不商家怎么这样积极呢? 作为月饼的忠实粉丝,我心里总有点疑惑。月饼这么好吃,做起来又不难,为什么平时不卖啊?

Icing on the Cake, June Holiday
锦上添花六月假期

It feels so good to take a break from the routine life, especially when you don't travel to tourist spots but your own hometown. During the two-week holiday in China, there have been no phone calls, no surfing of the Internet (don't get me wrong, my hometown is not a village. I purposly kept my hands off the gadgets during the 2 weeks.  You will be surprised to know that some people still think most China people live in the villages without electricity ^o^). I waked up naturally every morning, enjoying my favorite hometown food,catching up with relatives and old friends. Never realized that the local accent is so pleasant to the ear. It's a total relax to my body and soul!
