What we did today.</title><summary type='text'>

端午節到了，總想即使店裡的粽子也是"人"做出來的，那麼，我們應該可以試試看！？
小孩考完本年度大考，星期五就放假了，我們真不知要做什麼才好，四天連假，所以醒過來討論的第一件事就是
"那～我們來包粽子好嗎？" 
"好！"

難得，他比我早起，應驗了小孩放假起得早的說法，我先去冰箱看看有什麼可以用的食材，大概也只有香菇和干貝；拿出來處理一下，香菇需要泡開，干貝就用我的懶方法：淺盤，鋪上一個一個從冷凍櫃拿出來的乾干貝，上面放滿大蒜切片，加一點水讓每一個都浸在水中，目的是讓干貝香軟卻不會太大，一但泡開了就沒味道了，所以蒸好時，還一個一個圓圓的可愛極了，要給懶人吃的話還要將那硬硬的邊撥開，這樣吃的時候才不會卡卡。

香菇就是全部浸水泡軟，再將水分壓出，用蔥和醬油炒的時候才可以吃進味道，入口有彈性。
健康報告表示已經不適合吃蛋黃的我，當然用蛋白就好，所以蛋白和滷的竹筍是到正記買現成的，我只缺粽葉</summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ireadieatitravelilive.blogspot.com/feeds/3829567398937183662/comments/default' title='張貼意見'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8048803247973638895&amp;postID=3829567398937183662' title='7 個意見'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8048803247973638895/posts/default/3829567398937183662'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8048803247973638895/posts/default/3829567398937183662'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ireadieatitravelilive.blogspot.com/2011/06/look-what-we-did-today.html' title='LOOK!

我總是佩服她劍及履及的效率，東市買駿馬西市買鞍肩的講究，有的網路上訂，有的找廠商，有的到主婦聯盟，有的是有機店，處處專門樣樣神通，所以，昨天我接到這樣的一通電話：「東西都到齊嘍！」

我上午是禮筑書店的讀書會，下午是為年輕酷媽準備的英文圖畫書入門，中間穿插西雅圖回來的三位叫我阿姨的大朋友一起午餐，CJ到朋友家playdate，終於在一切完成接了CJ後電話響起，啊～看到上面的顯示，我也想起我的梅子，飛車取貨。

彬彬體貼地幫我準備了步驟和所有材料，搬上車，我真的很無能又感恩地說謝謝再說謝謝，還是要再謝謝這麼美麗又精彩的禮物！

一個蛋
一杯牛奶
半杯cream
一大匙肉桂粉
均勻打散，將隔夜切片麵包放進去，越有洞洞、嚼勁的麵包越好。
用鏟子壓一壓確定麵包吸飽蛋汁

平底鍋加中熱，塗上奶油，有點滋滋的效果時，放進麵包，約兩分鐘或確定底面已經乾熟，再翻面。
這樣不會黏鍋也確定蛋汁熟了。
serve with maple syrus，加上水果、培根片。
當然比起很多網路上的食譜，這樣的做法實在很陽春，但是中年的我實在不需要太多的膽固醇和糖。所以蛋和奶的比例真的以個人需要為前提囉～ 
在等麵包煎熟的時間可以煮水做咖啡或是泡茶。我現在已經不用象印或虎牌之類的熱水保溫器了，最好的方式就是要喝的時候再煮的開水，因為一熱再熱的開水證明有較多不必要的金屬含量。
家裡現在有french press壺，所以磨好的咖啡粉，沖下熱水即可。

並不常到東門市場，因為不易停車，像我這麼愛吃愛買的，總是買到提不動。到南門市場的話，停車方便許多。但是今天為了牛肉一定要跑一趟；所以車子開到烘焙者，喝我的本日咖啡，撐著傘，沿著永康公園、永康街、信義路、金山南路、進入市場，光看到那條牛腱的長相，就知道不虛此行，多走一點都值得。



經過公園，因為颱風天，路上行人不多，在永康街區非常難得可以仔細地看各店家，招牌、門面、地面、看看到底有什麼好吃好玩的地方，聞聞樹和雨的味道，看看沒什麼人的街景，穿著雨衣的我，走著走著可以感覺到負離子裡裡外外滲透，</summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ireadieatitravelilive.blogspot.com/feeds/5580959734873985636/comments/default' title='張貼意見'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8048803247973638895&amp;postID=5580959734873985636' title='0 個意見'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8048803247973638895/posts/default/5580959734873985636'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8048803247973638895/posts/default/5580959734873985636'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ireadieatitravelilive.blogspot.com/2010/09/blog-post.html' title='颱風天做菜天'/><author><name>Charlene Lai</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07615881207554769719</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='18' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-D73m6-PD1_Y/ToO5UOfenpI/AAAAAAAAHTA/90h_yR6S_Tg/s220/IMG_1564.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_2P2ATg1cByo/TJjUK37YnHI/AAAAAAAAEuY/dED_r82L6rM/s72-c/DSC03384.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8048803247973638895.post-8813251327156987206</id><published>2010-08-19T06:52:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-10-05T06:45:08.781-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='war'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='i read'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='environment'/><title type='text'>Peace and Beauty</title><summary type='text'>1863年倫敦出現地鐵，1890年有全世界最早的電車系統。有全世界密度最高的大使館聚集，全世界各國派駐的外交代表，所以當恐嚇份子要脅時最容易的就是在地鐵放炸彈，找也找不到，又驚悚又刺激，一座一座古老的車站被轟，原來木造的樓梯也漸漸用鋼筋水泥改建。倫敦的新新舊舊就這樣隨著時代參雜、交錯；在書店，看到這一本書：The General。在原有封面加印了一個像勳章的古銅色鋼印記號，寫著Anniversary Edition 50 YEARS，旁邊一行小字：A Celebration of Peace and Beauty。舊書新出，放在書店，就像倫敦的街景，這樣舊時代的書不僅在文字、繪圖風格、連用意，在現代也適用。

多年前聽朋友說牛津有一間書店，有整間童書是我們從沒見過的，當時並不熟悉圖畫書的浩瀚，直覺就是如果有一天也要去見識一下。

Blackwell於1879年在Oxford開始，目前已經有五個店面，第一間吸引我們的是藝術書，包括整屋子的海報、卡片，另一間是音樂的，有一間超大的但是找不到童書，原來童書要到另一個轉角的入口才是。

有一張以愛麗絲各種版本為主題的桌子，喜愛者可以收集，一般讀者也可以選心儀的版本。

結帳櫃台的後方，也是愛麗絲為主題。

因為寫作愛麗絲地下歷險記的Lewis Carroll當時就住在Oxford，這裡已經變成喜愛這本書的人極度想造訪的地方。還有愛麗絲小店，經過時下大雨，只在車上望著，想去又怕失望，失望裡面只是商品。

Newcastle就是經過這樣的歷程：網站上明明看到車可以一路接，從Heathrow-&gt;Paddington  Station-&gt;King's Cross  Station-&gt;Newcastle，但是實際上，票只能從Heathrow買到Paddington  Station，接下來要另外買，我在Paddington

Gogh，Cezanne，不迷失歷史中也難。這樣的城市設計改變了原來到阿姆斯特丹旅遊除了刻板印象中的紅燈區、安妮之屋、花市、河道，博物館區成為屋價最高的一區，也讓城市的國際價值回升。這次的梵谷展在台北，主要來自海倫‧庫勒慕勒夫人（1869-1939）的收藏，她在1938將自己在1908-1929所有收藏公開並自任館長，位於森林裡的庫勒慕勒美術館成為除了梵谷博物館外收藏最多梵谷作品的地方。</summary><link

Medal）和2-4個銀牌(Caldecott Honor，應該是3本，但有時多有時少)。目前是冬天半年會時宣佈，夏天年會時頒獎，有頒獎晚餐，可以買票進場，如果是書癡的話，真的是絕佳機會與作者共餐，前題是要認得出作者才有用呀，不然一頓飯還頗久的！今年晚餐的票一桌940元，可坐10人</summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml'

Bemelmans。作者旅行、貪食、從不買來回機票，因為他不知道下一站到哪裡。因為喜歡塗鴉，成為一位知名的童書作家。他的Madeline系列，從1939年出版至今，依舊再版，並有多國翻譯，完全破除時空限制。In an old </summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml'

town，閱讀蔚為風氣，但是圖書館館藏豐富，還有大型連鎖書店、網路書店，加上邦思與諾柏書店紐約市訂書當天送書的服務，另外，住屋空間有限即使是嗜讀者也很難多買書，這樣的環境讓獨立書店經營難上加難。Books of Wonder在1980年紐約市格林威治村開店，買賣新、舊、稀有和收藏類的童書，接著與綠野仙蹤書迷俱樂部(The Royal Club of Oz) 結合出版，一季一本，隨著幾次搬遷，規模越來越大後，還代理圖畫書原畫、開始網路購書，店主人Peter Glassman也寫作圖畫書，搬到新址後，一邊也開設飲食部Cupcake Cafe。</summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml'

之前看了Peter Brown的The Curious Garden，提到紐約的The High Line Park，藉著到紐約的機會，想親身經歷一下這裡的實景。目前只完成約全長的三分之一，有兩個出口，所以從南端看到標示的樓梯進入。

（舊鐵道上新種植的植物）

（上面蓋了一幢新旅館）

（地上利用水泥板做的間隔）

（側邊的休憩角落）

我們順著步道往北，看到很多種椅子分佈各種角落，讓大家選擇休息的方式，也有咖啡小攤，賣甜甜圈和熱蘋果西打，曬著太陽，望著哈得遜河，提供市區另一個散步的地方。




這樣的空間變化，即使還是有反對者反對財團的獲利，也很難拒絕上去晒晒太陽。</summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ireadieatitravelilive.blogspot.com/feeds/4415395817102429068/comments/default' title='張貼意見'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8048803247973638895&amp;postID=4415395817102429068' title='0 個意見'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8048803247973638895/posts/default/4415395817102429068'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8048803247973638895/posts/default/4415395817102429068'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ireadieatitravelilive.blogspot.com/2009/11/high-line-park-oct-26-2009.html' title='The High Line Park, Oct. 26, 2009'/><author><name>Charlene Lai</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07615881207554769719</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='18' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-D73m6-PD1_Y/ToO5UOfenpI/AAAAAAAAHTA/90h_yR6S_Tg/s220/IMG_1564.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_2P2ATg1cByo/SvAX8IpVg2I/AAAAAAAACr4/B9l5JMgnX3Y/s72-c/DSC00806.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8048803247973638895.post-7584438522777030722</id><published>2009-10-29T07:08:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-11-03T03:38:53.716-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='i travel'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='i live'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Thoughts'/><title type='text'>就是因為看不見才叫未來</title><summary type='text'>朋友喜歡我說說與孩子相處的想法，或是因為我的孩子比較大，我們討論一些過程。我常常不知不覺就想到那首小女孩問媽媽長大會變成什麼的歌，好像我小時候媽媽就常常哼著，When I was a little girl, I asked my mother, "what will I be?""Que sera, seraWhatever will be, will beThe future's not ours to seeQue sera, seraWhat will be, will be"孩子們從匍匐前進、牙牙學語、騎腳踏車、獨自出門…，一段一段的過程是可以預期的，但是未來要如何？又是另一段功課。我們目前看不到，但是可以期望的才是未來。</summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ireadieatitravelilive.blogspot.com/feeds/7584438522777030722/comments/default' title='張貼意見'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8048803247973638895&amp;postID=7584438522777030722' title='0 個意見'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8048803247973638895/posts/default/7584438522777030722'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8048803247973638895/posts/default/7584438522777030722'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ireadieatitravelilive.blogspot.com/2009/10/blog-post_29.html' title='就是因為看不見才叫未來'/><author><name>Charlene Lai</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07615881207554769719</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='18' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-D73m6-PD1_Y/ToO5UOfenpI/AAAAAAAAHTA/90h_yR6S_Tg/s220/IMG_1564.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8048803247973638895.post-8270943762838590785</id><published>2009-10-26T05:27:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-26T18:20:43.956-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='i travel'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='picturebooks'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Gallery'/><title type='text'>老之將至</title><summary type='text'>來到紐約，恰逢Where the Wild Things Are電影上映，全球的Maurice Sendak書迷一起致敬他在畫、圖畫書的成就，特別因為他的書有歷史地位和扭轉童書概念的關鍵，成為英美圖畫書有史以來，受到最大媒體關心的作者，隨著年紀、心情，發出這樣的訊息："I never thought I'd sell this artwork.

apple，西雅圖的大多是Fuji、Gala，隨著價錢，果農也種高利潤的水果，以前常見五磅一元的Red Delicious（五爪蘋果）已經很少了，現在還有Pink Lady小小的也好吃，有一種很少但是別錯過的是Honey Crisp，台灣說是蜜蘋果，但還是不大一樣。色美香甜，在西雅圖的朋友千萬別錯過，當然要買的時候也別手軟。</summary><link rel='replies'

type='text'>Shakepeare &amp; Company</title><summary type='text'>終於看完本有關莎士比亞書店由來與歷程的書。現在的莎士比亞書店位於巴黎左岸，在2月1日大雪後的清晨經過，尚未開店，但是之前經過時，一大早就有上學前的小孩在聽故事，也許是因為活動拍攝，特別安排的，但是裡面仍然是像書裡描述的堆疊不清的新舊英語書籍。Sylvia Beach於1920年左右開始書店，開書店一直是她的理想，但是紐約太貴，她旅居巴黎時，靈機一轉，就在巴黎開始了，直到1945年大戰結束，著名作家海明威在當時是戰地記者，解放（收復）巴黎時再度與Sylvia 相遇，她賣掉書店，回到美國，開始寫作，留下這本20世紀前半，英、美、法、愛爾蘭作家在巴黎的交流記錄。讀來也知道，任何時代開書店都是一種挑戰，但是都市裡一定要有書店，否則對這個城市是一種污辱。</summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml'

觀最後會有製紙的活動。其實在家製紙也不會太困難，尤其使用回收紙漿，像無聊郵件經過碎紙機之後，浸泡、去色或再染色，如果要比較強的纖維，牛奶盒也可 以，但要先去外層的薄蠟再使用。量少的當然比較難處理，因為要撈出紙漿，必然有某程度的消耗。對新手，一次做10來張A4紙也不是不可能的。紙鋪和紙博相隔幾個店面，種類與品質，相信即使路過都很難空手回來。拍了幾張相片：感覺就像布店。</summary><link

type='text'>從來就不是村上書迷，從進去"挪威的森林"快跑出來後，就確定他的寫作方式不適合我的閱讀方式。即使讀書會時Lisa分享了這本書，還是只記得書名，（其實書名真的非常重要，如何讓人至少拿起來翻翻看也是學問）所以在'Ecole喝咖啡時，自動翻了這本"關於跑步"，意外的是看著作者繼續跑，也像從雅典跑到馬拉松，也像沿著波士頓的河跑，也覺得悶熱，全身溼透又乾了一身鹽，雖然我目前還沒有跑馬拉松的想法，但是人生很多事不就像跑步嗎？他說著跑步的事，並沒有描述很多風景，但是會寫像馬路上被撞的動物，空氣，身體的感覺，肌肉的反應，心情，或是什麼都不想，的確是妙筆，不複雜但精確，與他小說的佈局不同，但是對"知覺"的描述同樣很特殊，語調不犀利，但筆觸簡單又精確。看他每天持續地跑，如同寫作，持續地寫，不是短時間的成就，即使今天能跑42公里，也是天天漸進地練習，養成這種習慣，同時應用到任何工作應該都適合。</summary><link
