最喜歡秋天尤其是又紅又黃的葉

Broadsheets and Tabloids
LOS ANGELES—Pershing Square.
In late summer, the unemployed fill the benches of the square with their old hats on, their collars tight around their necks, as though they sense the beginning of autumn and the coming of winter. They read the wanted ads, the sports papers, the illustrated magazines and reassure themselves, perhaps, that there really is some comfort, some hope, 1946.

這種景象相信很難再會出現無論世界任何一個角落

火車站及月台永遠都給人浪漫的感覺它總比機場或碼頭浪漫及有意境其實我一直都愛搭火車穿州過省那種

又來澳門

沒想到竟然有時間/機會三十天內去了兩次澳門

不過這次經驗告訴我們以後最好不要星期二來因為很多食肆都是星期二休息的又或我們很喜歡的大排檔原來下午三時多才營業不過賣完便閂檔的了分分鐘每天只做數小時生意人家真懂生活

星期二的下午一共摸了三四次門釘開玩笑說這天真沒有食神!

原來許久沒光顧的氹仔大利來記豬扒包星期二是休息的門口寫著威斯丁及大三巴的則都有營業於是浪費了八十多元的士車資然後跑去威斯丁可惜吃了個又貴又難吃的豬扒包包是冷的!

要求弄熱店員竟然不太願意
離開澳門前去了多人介紹的海灣餐廳這間我們倒從未光顧過食物不錯不過乳豬一般
炭燒魚這個芫茜魷魚很開胃英文menu倒是Squid with vinegar沒有提到芫茜的
因為整天都在吃第一晚又已經吃了很喜歡的葡菜所以這晚只吃了這些(還要打包回家再吃)甜品則叫了個餅乾慕斯(木糠布甸)不過我覺得我姊弄好吃很多了
說回我們的酒店是出發前在碼頭即時訂的這回揀了價錢不錯的Ponte 16(十六浦)包早餐

早餐是自助餐形式
竟然有香檳! 看到鄰桌自由行男士一口氣拿了四杯...
款式很多還有macaroon第一晚還趕及到舊葡京的樂宮餐廳吃梳乎厘有人覺得比太平館的更好吃蛋味比較重

One Day 情約一天

其實入影院時連"One Day"是哪個演員擔綱也不清楚昨天有網友留言問我看了沒有我只好像略略聽過有此片因為近日太忙什麼也不知道電影差不多開場時我才用手機上網看看imdb知道是Anne Hathaway飾演

電影改編自同名暢銷小說

從來對Anne Hathaway沒有好感亦不喜歡她不過又好像看過不少她有份演出的電影只覺得她眼鼻口都過大樣貌一點都不吸引演技嘛又不算特別出眾

此片看的是情節故事,噢當然Jim Sturgess也蠻帥
電影從1988年說到2011年由男女主角大學畢業真正認識那天開始直到這個年代1988當然我還未念大學不過電影中有一點我有極大共鳴的是Emma(Anne Hathaway)的兩套服飾。她和不太喜歡的男孩上街時的那條花裙加牛仔褸,正正是我在美國讀大學時曾經穿著的款式。還有她那件藍色旗袍,我看到時簡直感到驚訝,因為大學畢業禮時我就是穿了一件藍色旗袍(比Anne穿的長一點)
算是一個令人傷感的愛情故事

(spoiler alert)

我哭了四遍:

1. 當Emma和Dexter見面後Emma對Dexter非常失望"I still love you, so much. But I don't like you anymore."

2. 當Dexter離婚後到法國找Emma時
她已經有個jazz musician的法國男朋友Dexter不想和他倆一起見面獨自遠遠望著Emma與Jean-Pierre時

3. 悲傷欲絕的Dexter和父親一起渡過七月十五日的晚上
父親說: 你要每一天都像Emma仍在身邊一樣的活下去... 你看,過去十年我不是一樣這樣過?

4. Dexter和女兒跑上小山丘
,那個當年他和Emma在"那一天"的小山丘
很不錯的愛情故事。不過也有人覺得初段很老套沒有新意。又覺得老外又怎會有這些細水長流的單純友情(最後轉化為愛情)的故事

即使不喜歡Anne Hathaway
我也非常推薦這齣電影

Movie costumes

後記: 那個舊同學"搶人老婆"的一段也真的非常殘忍。末段只覺得男主角極度命苦。還有從當年叱吒娛樂圈到後來要在舊同學的公司幹活,果真令人沮喪。有時現實真的是一盆又一盆冷水撥過來的

還有還有
原來導演Lone Scherfig(來自丹麥)前作有"An Education"。那看來An Education成績及深度比此片高一點了

電影中畫面最美的一幕是黃昏時分二人酒後裸泳,很喜歡日落時天空的紫。

也喜歡用了廿多年的打字機和MacBook,雖然有點刻意,也反映了情感經歷了多個年頭。

Rotten Tomatoes只有37%

菱角

"食唔食隻菱角呀?"

"食咩菱角呀?"

"中秋食菱角架嘛... "

"係咩, 中秋點解要食菱角?"

"你竹升呀宜家?中秋食菱角都唔知... "


想來兒時也可能聽過甚至中秋也會吃過菱角,不過已經近乎全無印象。你們有多久沒吃過菱角呢?有多少人的家還會中秋時應節吃菱角?

上網找找才知菱角是涼性植物,有消暑清熱作用。據說小孩子中秋吃菱角會聰明伶俐。

昨晚吃了一點,味道似無味的椰子肉。

鲜磨粟米汁

中秋的深夜, 在翠華喝了杯鲜磨粟米汁. 真的是原汁原味的鲜磨粟米汁, 沒有加糖或鹽. 感覺蠻健康噃.

雖然已是凌晨三點, 補祝大家中秋快樂, 人月兩團圓!

The Three Dimension Luck and Power Test


You Are Balanced - Realist - Empowered

You feel your life is controlled both externally and internally.

You have a good sense of what you can control and what you should let go.

Depending on the situation, you sometimes try to exert more control.

Other times, you accept things for what they are and go with the flow.

You are a realist when it comes to luck.

You don't attribute everything to luck, but you do know some things are random.

You don't beat yourself up when bad things happen to you...

But you do your best to try to make your own luck.

You have a good deal of power, but you also know the pecking order.

You realize that working the system does get you further.

You know who to defer to and who to control.

When it comes to the game of life, you play things flawlessly.
