bike ride

2011-06-05T17:53:00.000-04:00

My son grows up so fast. Last time when I saw my son ride the bike from his back, he was 4 . because I had to hold the bike seat to help him balance the bike when he learned how to bike. Now he is 10 , I even can't catch up with him while we bike. Kid does grow up fast, right?!

Christmas little tree耶誕小樹

2010-12-25T07:51:00.007-05:00

Due to space we have , I decided to have a tiny Christmas tree. I have to say it is tiny,but it is cute and it is our tree. We had our Christmas morning just like most of families , ＂open gifts and enjoy those wonderful gifts." Christmas day is also my parents' anniversary, we went to the memorial park to visit my Dad, then we had a big all you can eat meal with family. Nice and quiet family day.因為空間的關係我選了一棵耶誕小樹，雖然是小但是很可愛的啦！就如一般家庭的耶誕早晨，拆拆禮物玩玩禮物。耶誕節正好也是我父母的結婚週年紀念曰，我們也去祭拜一下爸，再和全家吃了一頓飽飽的吃到飽大餐。

David wrote about the flora exposition and the exhibition show he visited
How is the immortal flower mode? Fresh flowers must be placed into water-filled containers within thirty minutes of their harvest to prevent the oxidose in their cells from revitalizing, affecting the anthocyanin's PH level. Its manufacturing process is as follows: fresh Flowers--> rapid freezing --> Vacuumed decompression --> Dehydration -->under a vacuumed state --> Permeation(using ether, paraffin as solvents)--> Restitution (Paraffin ppermeates thru to the water's position in the cell)--> Finished product (carefully and strictly selected by quality control)

百萬小學堂 - PART I

2010-11-14T08:34:00.013-05:00

Get ready to go to the show 準備去攝影棚了喔

在觀眾席上 This is before we left the show . 準備離開回家去了

來張自拍

This is very popular show in Taiwan , similar to what we have in the State " are you smarter than 5th grade?" Kids here LOVE the show. I didn't take or get any star's photo during the recording. I only took my son's photo... ha... because . he is the "Super Star" in my hart, in my mind. It is very hard for him in this past 3 months. Different school style, different culture, living environment, people , things and more... Chinese is pretty hard language , especially in writing. (They don't write much back in state, specially , the English writing is totally different from Chinese) Of course , school and teacher are helping David in a lot of ways. I know he is trying hard and both of us are being a little bit impatient about the process. We would like to learn the Chinese very well overnight (haaa...no way), but some things need time to improve. I want to tell David. you are doing awesome, keep your hard work!! I love you

這是一個非常受歡迎的節目和美國一個叫比五年級生強的節目遊戲有點類似!!! 現在的孩子真的好聰明我並沒有拍任何明星的相片只有錢錢的相片哈!!! 因為錢錢在我心中就是super star ! 我明白在這過去的三個月以來對他來說並不容易!!! 不同的學校環境不同的人事物 !中文並不好學特別是在寫的 ( 叫這種從美回來不常動筆寫字就算有寫就那二十六個字母連一連就好和我們中文相差頗遠啊) 我們母子倆都想快快學好可是有些事也是急不得的當然學校和老師也很努力的在幫助錢錢 !!!! 我想告訴兒子錢錢你做的很好喔!!! 加油繼續努力 !!! 我愛你

NOTE :::: Once the show is on , I will post on PART II 我想是十一月二十播吧有的話我再放到part II

深坈老街和洗溫泉 Historical Street & hot spring water

2010-11-07T07:56:00.006-05:00

David said , it is getting colder and he would like to take a hot spring water bath to relax his muscle... Ha... relax muscle . So we took him to a place that my Dad used to take us while we were little. There are nice food, nice hot spring water and nice Taipei city view . It is too bad that it was rainning when we were there. 錢錢說天冷了要洗溫泉來放鬆肌肉所以我們就帶他去我爸常帶我們去的七窟那有好吃的也有不錯的溫泉還有夜景可看可惜那天下雨只好坐室內

Just get out the hot spring water bath, and ready to eat 洗完澡了要吃飯喔!!!

Jack-o-Lantern 2010

2010-10-31T10:09:00.004-04:00

Jon's colleague invited us over for the party , especially he ordered the carving pumpkin for the kids, so each kid can carve their own pumpkin. most of kids still need parents to help them. But surprisingly , David didn't need much help from me. Yes, he is 9 now... I think I need to face to the the truth, he is going to be a big boy soon... David's Jack-o-Lantern in the night JON的同事邀請我們去party順便訂了南瓜給小朋友刻大部分的小朋友還是要爸媽幫忙 "出乎我意料"的事錢錢幾乎不需要我去幫他也是他己經九歲了也是個大男生了喔!!!

When we are little , we LOVE to have this kind of instant dry noodle, you just need to crash the noodle, add the seasoning in , shake it and eat it.( of course , you can add the hot water in and eat it like usual instant noodle, but sorry , we all LOVE this crazy way to eat it) It doesn't have a lot of nutrition, so people doesn't like kids to eat too much. But David and I both LOVE it . 小時候很愛的王子麵現在變科學麵沒想到錢錢也很愛就這樣乾乾的吃很過癮

First Costco Trip

2010-08-08T20:54:00.006-04:00

After Traditional Market , we would like to go to "western style" market... COSTCO.... oh!Ya!! It is kind of weird to let Jon leads us to take the bus and subway to the Costco and we just follow, since he already been there few times.
Taipei has really nice public transportation - the bus lines, the subway , just like the spider web.去過傳統市場後總要去一下西方超市代表 "好市多" 即然Jon 己經去過幾次了就由他帶著我們去公車去可是總覺的奇怪好像該是我帶他去才對靠著台北公車和捷運到了Costco了
錢錢在公車上 David on the bus .... Yes, We have Pizza ( but no Cheese pizza , people in Taiwan likes pile up toppings on the pizza....) Chicken Bake, Hot dog , Salad , Ice cream . just like in States. We had Sushi and Seafood Pizza. 這的好市多和美國差不多只是沒有cheese pizza 我想在台灣大家都喜歡在pizza 上加好多料

We also went to Dihua Street to find varieties of traditional dried good and Chinese herbs and spices. 我們還去迪化街找尋一些南北乾貨和中藥

Shop in Traditional Market

2010-08-07T10:07:00.002-04:00

This morning , David and I decided to shop in the traditional market which is like the farmer market in states. We took this photo is David with the clam and oyster.

All of the vegetables are here, various kinds of fresh mushrooms. David is holding the chocolate milk on his hand 所有的青菜都在這了還有很多新鮮的香菇錢錢手上拿著巧克力牛奶附註 :錢錢在這受到一位年輕菜販媽媽的"青睞" 要求要抱一下他害的錢錢很不好意思

David is helping mom to "push" the cart. Actually you should drag the cart not the push it. look at both sides of the rode. Yes. Motor Scooters.... We went over the market pretty late. otherwise the "traffic " will be much busier in the morning. that means more and more cars and motor bikes. 錢錢幫我"推" 菜車籃事實上是要用拖的才對哈 ! 看路两側的摩托車我們倆是很晚才去菜場晃的早一點的話車可是更多的吔

We passed by a old temple , David wants to visit inside and take a quick look .

David is amazed by the person who can clean up the fish in a minutes and all of the inside organs . 錢錢看魚販可以快速清魚看的可入神了還不停的對魚販發問喔

Going underground to take the MRT/Subway . it is nice and cool underground.

There a lot of undergroun shopping malls , shops and restaurants.

Ha... We saw the daylight , we are up on the ground now ...ya..We got off subway in Taipei Main station. It was not too hot, but still can make you sweat badly.

Passed by a convenient Sushi shop. Look at all of the sushi behind David. They do have all of the favors that you can think about.

We have McDonald everywhere.

Lunch : Teriyki eel

play Table tennis.

Detroit Airport

2010-07-29T10:18:00.003-04:00

We need to go through two buildings to connect the flight to Tokyo

Nice, fancy light tunnel

They even have Express train , but we didn't take it ,because David wants to have Chicken nuggets from McDonald that is located between the stations.

Water fountain with "water dance", pretty cool

On the Way to Taipei - Columbus to Detroit

2010-07-29T09:39:00.004-04:00

We left Columbus on July 19,2010 . It is hard....

Angel , Waverly , Baby Allan, David, My mom, Yuming Allan was trying to push the "carry on" Luggage After we passed the security gate, David started to cry so hard , because he knew he will miss all of the friends , school and things in OhioWhen we arrivaled Detriot , the pilot let David set in the pilot seat and explained all the equipments for him
The flight from Columbus to Detriot is small flight , so they made us to carry all of the bags ( we have 4 heavy carry-on bags) from 2 floors to hardstand/apron. No elevator , so David and I have to drag the bags thru stairs , step by step.....

Macaroni & Cheese --Too Good

2010-07-02T00:08:00.007-04:00

David is reading the Comic for cousin Allan. I don't think Allan really gets it 錢錢和小帥在看"報紙"錢錢想吃起司麵我想反正還有一杯速成的 (只要微波3分就好) 就叫錢錢自己弄來吃沒想到小帥也要還两個人搶著吃最後小帥為了"殘餘"的汁都吃的桌上去了 . late night, David wants to have Macaroni & Cheese. since we still have one Mac &Cheese Cup that only need microwave for 3 minutes , I let David handle his own late night snack. but I didn't think Allan would like to have some ... Look ,he even climbed on the table just for the remnants of "juice" 所以身為媽媽又為阿姨的我只好又下廚為我宝貝兒子和宝貝侄子煮上一大鍋的Mac & Cheese . End up .. As Mom and as "The BEST" aunt, I cooked WHOLE POT of Mac & Cheese for them .
