端午节
昨天是端午节。是纪念爱国诗人屈原的特别日子。
虽然我不是非欣赏屈原投江自禁的作风,也不认为他这种“一了百了”的做法是爱国的表现,可是,我们能在五月初五吃粽子,或多或少都是因为他。
可是,昨天过节的气氛,一点儿都没有。可能,这种传统节日,都不受重视,都不重要了。哎,算了吧。我们又能怎么样呢?
还好,Mother 在几天前,就已经把粽子包好了。有肉棕、娘惹粽和碱水粽。个个都好吃,个个香! Mother 还买了多一些包粽子的叶子和绳子,准备过几天再包一些有特别红豆馅料的碱水粽!
在来临的八月中,WY 会参加文化艺术团的大型演出。听他说,他和他的组员会高歌几首福建歌曲,其中也包括“烧肉粽”('sio bak chang')!我们有待视觉和听觉的享受吧!

We miss eating this food.
Sigh...mother's version is the best, because we "grew up" with it. As with all mother's food, children like it best.
Joel is far more simple, he likes plain rice, spiced with my "feeding him". These days he wants me to spoon feed him, since he is jealous of Sarah.
Sigh...
I call it "retro mealtime".
