鹹花生醬碎巧克力曲奇 Salted Peanut Butter Choc Chip Cookies


一年一度的暑假來了。又是妹妹的兒子從香港來探我們的時候。

The summer holiday is here again.  Time for my sister's son, coming from Hong Kong, to visit us as usual.

海陸沙律 Surf and Turf Salad


最近聽世界各地的朋友們都說他們的夏天有多熱,動輒都 36 - 38 ˚ C。我記起這麼熱的經驗也只有幾年前去美國佛羅尼達州體會過。那次還差點中暑。所以我知道大家的苦處。

Recently, I've been hearing friends from all different parts of the world saying how hot this summer is where they live, with temperatures as high as 36 - 38 ˚ C. From what I can remember, I've only ever experienced weather that hot when we were in Florida a few years back.  That time, I nearly suffered a sun - stroke, so I know what everybody must be going through.

雞和煙肉公司沙律 Chicken & Bacon Club Salad


我中學畢業後在未來英國求學之前,是位助理美術設計員。首先是在邵氏電影公司工作,繼而到富麗華酒店。

做第一份工時,我看了很多套電影。做第二份工時,我卻吃了很多東西。

Before I left Hong Kong, between the few years that I finished school and came to study abroad, I worked as an assistant artist; first at the Shaw Brothers (HK) Ltd, then at the Hotel Furama.

With the first job, I watched a lot of films. With the second job, I ate a lot of food.

香濃軟巧克力蛋糕 Rich & Soft Chocolate Cake


去年十二月,從部落格的網上來往中認識了 Daisy。她開朗的性格和生動的文筆很討人喜愛;尤其是她對訪尋出色甜品的積極態度,或自己親自動手做的認真,都令人佩服。我想她替她的部落格取名 " Never too sweet ",最是貼切不過。

法式蛋撻 French - Style Custard Tart


最近經常墮入懷舊的情緒。想是因為孩子們快畢業了,行禮後,便將要結束他們的學業生涯。那就是說,兩兄妹都不會再回家裏長住的了。為了工作,他們需要在大城市留下發展。
