Banana Bread

After reminded by my friend how much I love to bake, I took several tours to buy cheap kitchen ware, and then I was all set to bake.

The good things about baking Banana Bread are it's easy and the whole kitchen smells nice. I failed to get the right type of flour, but self-raising flour is good because it gives you the volume. The most enjoyable part of all is the fact that my flatmate LIKES it, and she showed it with action -- she ate more than half of it as her proper meal when I didn't try to burden her by inviting her to eat it. That's REAL support, especially when I didn't even put in any salt, a crucial ingredient. I guess the real explanations are: 1. she is nice, and 2. people's standards for food are generally lower when they come to UK.

Tonight, my flatmate and I struggled for an hour to make our curry dinner. In the end, we took every bite with great pleasure. As you can see, my blog is all about food. You are right to think that, "gosh, this girl needs to be on a diet very soon."

There is a small park on my way to work. It's mostly very quiet, few people would go in. I walked past it at lunch time today, and was amazed to find the whole place became a children's heaven. It's loaded with kindagarten kids screaming, laughing on a piece of grassland. Children are good at entertaining themselves -- some run around, some fight, some talk, some just follow, some wander away alone. They are creative in making up games. They get amused and excited by their surroundings easily. The world is so simple for them. Dressed in my suits, I wish I could join them......
