Title:Lovely Stuff
(translated by Stelart, http://stelart.blogspot.com )
Today I spent the whole afternoon making oxtail stew.
今天我花了整整一個下午去做燜牛尾
First you heat up some olive oil in a casserole, fry some bacon cubes in
this, add seasoned oxtail and brown them for a few minutes, taking care not
to burn the bacon. Add carrots, leek, celery, sage, parsley and some red wine
and oyster sauce. Let the alcohol bubble away, add water, cover it and let it
stew in the oven for 3 and 1/2 hour.
首先要將橄欖油在沙鍋裡加熱,後放入肉絲煎炒,
再加上調過味的牛尾煎一段時間,注意不要把肉絲煎糊。
然後加入胡蘿蔔,韭,西芹,鼠尾草,荷蘭芹以及一些紅酒和蠔油。
讓紅酒沸騰蒸發掉後,加水直到漫過牛尾,再將牛尾在爐中燉三個半小時。
HOW CAN IT NOT TASTE NICE? Try cooking most meats for 3 hours at least and
they all taste good.
它怎麼可能不好吃呢?大部分肉做三個小時以上後都會十分美味的。
Serve it with mash potatoes.
和土豆泥一起端上餐桌吧
I feel like Martha Stewart. In fact, I was just thinking about the most
wonderful things in my life. Some of them aren't that accessible, but the
simplest things that put a foolish grin on my face are actually readily
available in stores!
我覺得我自己像是Martha Stewart(美國富婆,急功近利,後被判入獄,
重返家庭後,開始無憂無慮的家庭主婦生活,但她注定是不平凡的女性,
於是,“瑪莎‧斯圖爾特家庭用品公司”誕生了,銷售的產品幾乎無所不包。
2001年,公司年收入達近3億美元,斯圖爾特成為“全美第二大女富豪”。)
事實上,我剛剛在想我人生中最美好的事。他們有的並不是那麼容易實現,
但是有些最簡單的事情,它們可以讓我傻傻的裂開嘴笑,
而且總是在那裡觸手可及。
YUP, unbelievable as it may seem for someone of my age and gender, I am a
sucker for little material things.
是的,對於一些在我這個年紀的女性這似乎難以置信,我對這些小事物情有獨鍾。
Like stickers, and beautiful cards.
比如貼紙以及漂亮的卡片。
I will like to periodically share some items I love in this blog so that more
people may partake in the same joy!
我很願意在這個博客裡定時的分享一些我喜歡的東西,
這樣感興趣的人就可以分享到同樣的樂趣了!
1. Swell Gel
Plant & Plant出品的一種凝膠
Plant n Planet
Level 3 Centrepoint Shopping Centre
Plant & Planet一家新加坡的公司(http://www.plantandplanet.com/)
先得坊購物中心3層
Even before I started working, I remember walking into this rather
nondescript place and oohing over the pure ingredients in their products.
This very handy gel is good for insect bites, but I like to bring a little
jar with me and use it when I feel hot and stuffy. The eucalyptus oil is
refreshing and it has no unnatural ingredients such as mineral oils or
parabens.
我記得就連我開始工作之前,
(都會)去這個無可名狀的地方並為他們產品中純粹的成分感到驚訝。
這種好用的凝膠對蚊蟲叮咬很有效,不過我喜歡讓自己的用法有所不同,
在我感到很熱和呼吸困難時用它。
這種桉樹油十分清爽而且不含有任何非自然的成分,
比如礦物油或者甲苯酸酯類的添加劑。
2. Bioderma
(make up remover and moisturizer for sensitive skin)
Available at most guardian pharmacies
貝德瑪 http://www.bioderma.net.hk/
(卸妝潔膚水以及針對敏感皮膚的防敏修護霜)
在多數藥店都有出售
This french brand is actually more popular than you think. I was recommended
to use it by a HK chanteuse's make up artiste and found out that another TW
chanteuse uses the same product. It removes make up gently and leaves no
gross oily residue.
事實上這個法國品牌比你想像的要流行。它是一個香港歌手的化妝師推薦給我的
,然後我又發現另一個台灣歌手也在用同樣的產品。
它可以溫和的卸妝並且不會留下那些令人厭惡的油油的殘餘物。
The moisturizer was a lucky hit. Last week, I had an unexplainable allergy to
everything in my closet. My eyes turned puffy, my skin broke into rashes and
I felt stuffed and bloated. BUT WHAT'S A GIRL/MAN NAMED ABEL TO DO? So I took
a shot at this moisturizer and my skin cells are ALL SUPER HAPPY. I can feel
the cells drinking in this gentle skin loving cream.
那個防敏修護霜是一個幸運的偶然發現。
上星期,我無法解釋的對我櫥櫃裡所有的東西過敏。
我的眼睛浮腫起來,我的皮膚上突然出現皮疹,
我感覺好像被填充並且腫脹起來一樣。
但是一個叫Abel的女生抑或是男士該怎麼做呢?
於是我嘗試了這種防敏霜,它使我的皮膚細胞都變得超級快樂起來。
我可以感受到細胞吸收這些溫和的呵護皮膚的乳霜。
3.Egg Cartons
Available at most super markets/wet markets
紙質蛋托
在多數超市和菜市都有出售
These things are very handy when you are trying to plant stuff. They break
down naturally, and therefore can be transfered straight to the soil with
little distress that can occur from transferring the delicate saplings.
當你嘗試種東西的時候這種東西十分有用。他們自然分解,
因此在可以在轉移中保護脆弱的樹苗的同時可以直接轉化為土壤
4.Water Bottle
Steal from your niece whatever
水壺
從親戚家的小孩那里搶來
I got my pale greyish pink one from stella mc cartney for adidas. I like to
make a bottle full of ice cold Ribena with a dash of organic apple cider
every night before I sleep. It's my comfort drink.
我有一個stella McCartney為Adidas設計的淺灰粉的水壺。
每晚睡覺前,我喜歡弄滿滿一瓶冰鎮利賓納和一點有機蘋果酒混合的飲料。
它使我感到安慰。
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Adidas-Stella-McCartney-Water-Bottle/dp/B001GJK38S
ok that's all I can think of right now. With the economic downturn and the
streets of Singapore turning eerily quieter, one of these simple pleasures
might just make your day a little brighter.
好了,這是目前我所能想到的所有東西。
在這個經濟低迷,新加坡的街道變得有點恐怖的安靜的時期,
這些簡單的樂趣或許恰恰可以使你的日子變得好過一點。
