印象中的老成都
Sunday, October 15th, 2006武侯祠的边上新建了一条街叫锦里,是模仿老成都的样貌修的。今年国庆时回家走了走,确实还有些老成都的感觉。
成都代表性的建筑风格就是青石瓦房。

窄窄的街道,有点云南丽江的味道,连酒吧也取名叫四方街,最能体现成都人最赶潮流的心态。不过,皮影戏和老烟枪还是保留了老成都的味道。

这次回成都,发现最最传统的成都风味小吃确实是大不如从前了。最令人失望的龙抄手、钟水饺和赖汤元,找遍全城,找不到当年令人垂涎的味道。究其原因,大概是因为老成都们已经不再追捧传统,而来成都访问的游客们又比较容易糊弄的缘故吧。但是我在陈麻婆豆腐的一席饭还是让我大快朵颐,忍不住把这些好吃拿来和大家分享一下。
最最正宗的麻婆豆腐:豆腐上的花椒面足以让你头皮发麻,但是这正是这道菜的妙处。

夫妻肺片:最正宗的吃法是肺片夹锅盔,类似陕西的肉夹馍

最好吃的宫保鸡丁:鲜香和麻辣的至尊级统一,连每个花生米都酥到了骨头里

还有的就是我热爱的凉粉、凉面和煮凉粉。所谓煮凉粉,就是用水把大米做成的色泽金黄、形似豆腐的、看似凉粉的东东煮过,然后加以佐料伴着吃,热乎乎,辣嘻嘻,冬天或阴雨天吃着是莫大的享受。阿姨身后那一摞摞的碗里就是煮凉粉了,凉粉在她身后的电饭锅了烫过后,加上她身前碗里各种佐料一拌,就成了美味可口的佳肴。

大快朵颐的样子:
Just relearned the solar system because Pluto was recently classified as “dwarf planet”. And the news flew from newspapers to TV stations quite fast.
The inner solar system contains the sun(太阳)、Mercury(水星)、Venus(金星)、Earth(地球) and Mars(火星)。

The planets of the outer solar system are Jupiter(木星)、Saturn(土星)、Uranus(冥王星) and Neptune(海王星)。 Pluto is classfied as dwarf planet now.

The textbooks in China for the coming fall couldn’t reflect this change made by the late August. I heard teachers were worried because probably the first time in the history, the black-and-white prints will no longer be telling the ”truth”. The text-auditing committee claimed they chose not to revise the textbooks because editting textbooks is such a serious thing and it has to be approved by layers of authorities. It makes me wonder why the textbooks in China can only spread doctrines but encourage questioning and exploration. How about just put it as “Whether Pluto is a planet in the solar system is still under debate. Pluto was discovered in 1930 and considered as a planet since. This school of thought has been challenged by many scientists and in Aug 2006, Pluto was classified as a dwarf plant by the International Astronomical Union. However, the new classification also has many dissentents. Some scientists are working very hard to reverse the decision. Thousands of debates are still there about the universe since human being only knows it so little. If you are serious about the Astronomy, the below are the reference books. Welcome to explore the mysterious universe…” When could teachers in China give up the role as the authoritative figure but be a cheer leader among millions of knowledge-seeking kids?
A friend once said that a life without fears must be a happy life. I can not agree more.
人们不愿意坐飞机多半是因为怕死。怕死的原因有很多,通常是因为个人对活色生香、美好生活的留恋,所以不想死。当然,也有朋友是因为觉得此时此刻的人生责任重大,不能死,也不愿死的那种。 昨天和一位历经波澜,刚步入稳定的感情生活的朋友一起吃饭。席间,朋友对刚确定关系的女友无比珍惜,连名字都只肯透露姓氏,搞得我先生是无比得好奇。朋友回家探望父母,宁可选择乘坐2天2夜的火车也不愿意坐3个小时的飞机。究其因,则是他现在不愿死,也死不起,因为他的生命现在已经不是仅仅属于自己。
朋友道出原因,搞得我一阵感动。在柴米油盐的生活中久了,总觉得爱情是写在书里,骗骗小孩子的东西。校园生活一结束,独立谋生的压力通常让爱情在生活中的分量与日俱减。选择房子和票子而放弃爱情、游戏人间的例子也比比皆是。毕竟,前者是可以在人前炫耀的,而后者的滋味只有当事人才最知道。望着年纪与我相仿,陷在爱情里一脸满足的朋友,我只能相信,爱情是种心态,和年龄无关。越是生活经历坎坷,还是可以执著于爱情的人,越是让旁人感到那份感情的单纯和执著。 在爱人眼里,没有什么是傻的,有的只是感动。而这份傻爱也许就能让本不相干的两个人在今后互相扶持着走过无数个平淡、艰难或辉煌的日子。祝朋友好运!也希望大家都曾有过一段傻傻的日子。
