Fried Fish Intestines

.

These are fish intestines eaten with ginger and some sauce.

It’s one of their local favourites (台南归仁) .

I had tried eating it and goodness….

the taste wasn’t that pleasant afterall.

 

鱼的内脏，没办法接受这个味道!

Lavelle’s Joy!!

Yay!! With help of the walker, I managed to get the cookies from the coffee table!

这位小朋友在桌子上拿到了一盒饼干是开心的不得了！

Sleepness Night!

Last night couldn’t get to sleep till almost 5 a.m.  Either too tired after cleaning dad’s place or too excited about next day’s work…Slept for an hour and got up getting ready for a new day. Then went to office and realised the key was not able to open the door. It’s a new duplicated key and it doesn’t work!  Called boss to confirm that I’m in the right office and told him about the main door key’s problem.  Then boss said to start next Monday instead and so took the train and head for home.   What a day to start with??

Upon reaching my destination, went for my breakfast of niang doufu and soya bean drink!

What a joy to have my breakfast by the window watching the train going left and right with people moving in and out of the train!   That’s my Monday!! 

Dad & Mum

 

照片里是我爸和我妈，一对俊男美女。

这是在1963年照的。如今他们都不在了。

妈妈是在两年前过世了而老爸是在今早9点多离世了 

That’s my dad and mum and this was taken in 1963.

They were no longer with us now.

Mum passed away two years ago.

Dad passed away this morning at 9 plus.

父女的对话！

最近老爸的身体不是很好，行动也不怎麽方便因为他动了肺部的手术。儿女们都得常去探访他老人家。如今老爸是痩到皮包骨好像被虐待到营养不良的样子。大家都希望老爸能多吃一些比较有营养的食物但他都不要。只吃他喜欢吃的那几样东西而对其他的食物没兴趣。当我去探访老爸的时候，都是空着手去看他因为不晓得甚麽食物才会适合他。老爸很会嫌东嫌西，也很挑食。嫌这太咸、那太甜或者太淡没味道。。。这就是我的老爸。哎！该买甚麽，真难料理！

 

有一天照常去看老爸，到了不久他说很想吃水饺汤但是不要加面条。之后就买了回来给他吃。  

老爸吃的蛮开心，就边吃边说：「你若爱我，来看我的时候可买这给我吃！」

我看着老爸。。。回答说：「不买给你吃并不代表不爱你而是你很挑食我不敢买，恐怕买了你又不吃反倒嫌东嫌西！」

老爸回答：「好好好！现在告诉你，你可买酿豆腐但是只要豆腐、豆干和茄子就好，其他的都不要。还有，也可买云吞汤不要加面条和菜或者也可买去骨的白斩鸡胸或鸡腿，这几样就可以了。」

之后，我说：「只要你不嫌东嫌西，想吃甚麽都可买给你吃！」老爸也答应了！

 

过了几天，孙媳妇煮了一道他最爱的黑酱油猪脚来看老爸。《用爱烹调的猪脚！》孙媳妇把猪脚端给老爸吃，看着他吃的表情就问老爸好吃吗？老爸既然回答说：「有的吃就好!有的吃就好!」 

 

哈哈哈！可爱的老爸再也不嫌东嫌西了! 

Precious Moments!

Yesterday seven brethren from Taiwan came and were here for an important matter. He’s Brother En-min from Taiwan who was arranged to engage with Sister Jane. Thank God that all went through well with preacher giving some encouragement, exchanging of gifts and followed by a tea reception.  Everybody was so joyous especially Jane’s mother! May God bless them as they trek into marriage life!   

Going to TJC MaeMo for Service

Elder Hee, Sis Ming Chooi and Sis Harn Ni

Getting ready to go to TJC MaeMo with joy!

 

Only to realise that they had to be caged up to travel!!

It takes more than an hour’s ride to reach their destination!  

Papayas Everyday!!

 

A sister had a papaya farm and gave us some papayas which lasted for six meals.

These children were actually quite tired of eating the same fruit for several meals. 

They had only for six meals while we had eaten for five days for every meal!! 

These adorable children though tired of eating but they still had fun eating it

Whatever the case, thank God for his providence as it saves cost!!

Another Wedding in Taiwan!

Last June (2009) a sister from here was married off to Taiwan in Shuang Qi District (双崎).  Then we had one this January (2010) and the sister was married to Ping Dong District (屏东). Soon we’ll be having another wedding in Taiwan and this will be our third person to be married off to Taiwan. Next month the Brother will come over to have the engagement and ROM ceremony conducted. The wedding is scheduled to be held in August in Tai Nan (台南). This will be our third wedding and it just happened that every seventh month there is a wedding going on! 7th is a complete number and what a coincidence!!

Holy Matrimony In Taiwan

First trip of the year and it was to Taiwan to attend a holy matrimony and also at the same time to visit a sister in Shuang Qi Tribe. The bride, Lydia Teh is married to brother Steve Wu in Ping Dong District.  Thank God the wedding went through smoothly and we had about 10 of us who went over to witness her wedding.  Deacon James and wife from UK Newcastle was there to witness her wedding too! The church hall was full of friends, relatives and brethren who were also there to witness their marriage. The most touching part was the speech given by her father. He was in tears while giving his speech and so was her mother!  Most of us were touched to tears! After the wedding march, we were treated with a sumptuous dinner and the whole restaurant was full. In the midst of our dinner we had to leave as we had to travel another 3 hours back to Shuang Qi. May God bless them all the days of their life.
