Finally had my mom's special home-cooked 红枣面线汤 (vermicelli in jujube soup), which is brilliant, because she's brilliant like that. (I'm awaiting her black pepper mushroom noodles.)
Here, be jealous.
I really do miss home-cooked food. I'm sick of all the nonsense on campus, where food is plainly just edible. I live to eat, not eat to live. #firstworldproblems
Due to my super long schedule, I can't cook for myself as much as I'd like to. Which is a huge shame, because I think my cooking is quite fantastic and inventive, and also because I'd like to practice cooking awesome food more, but no. C'est la vie. I have to live with whatever expensive edibles they pass off as food in campus. :(
It's also quite alarming how much people love salt nowadays. Le petit ami has a salt-tooth, in addition to his sweet-tooth, and because I'm not ignorant about high-blood pressure, it kills me a little when we eat out because I know whatever we're eating is most likely loaded with it.
Not like we can do much about it... I simply just don't have the time to cook. Maybe next year, I'll start on all those recipes I've saved up.
