Leo loves traditional Taiwanese food and snacks, One day I took the left over sesame paste in my fridge to make noodles. It turn out to be a nice sesame noodles. It's super easy to make:
Sesame Noodle (for one person)
Chinese Noodle for 1 person Oyster Sauce 1 Tbsp (Soy Sauce would do as well) sesame Paste 1 Tbsp
1.Put noodle into boiling water to cook for 3 minutes, while waiting take a big bowl and mix oyster sauce and sesame paste in it. 2.Drain the cooked noodle, mix it into the bowl of sesame sauce. Bon appetit!
Tip: Leave some water on the noodle to make it easier to mix with sauce and keep the noodle moist. It goes well with sliced fresh cucumbers.
This morning I had a dream. Standing in front of a large crowd in a middle of a stadium, singing a beautiful song. The melody was so beautiful and touching, soft and sonorous. As I singing the solo, I was moved by the message brought by the melody.
In the real life, I can no longer sing high pitch. But the wonderful feeling as singing in the dream, I can still feel it in me.
Maybe when baby get big, I can go back to the choir and sing. Even back to mid-lower pitch as alto, the comfort that music can bring to me is no less.
Today I received an email from a very good friend of mine. It included a link and mentioned that this clip is really worthy of your time. A young harvard college girl named Rachel Esplin, who is a LDS like us, was invited to a religious discussing event and shared her testimony and experiences. I think she did a great job.
(The questioner is Sally Quinn.)
Here I took out the main twelve questions during the interview as below:
September 23, 2008
1.Tell us where you are from? What's your early religious experience while growing up? 2.How do you practice your religion? How does that effect your every day life? 3.When you got here you become more religious than you were at home? 4.Have you done your missionary work?Is that something you'll do? 5.Since you came to Harvard, have you have any conversations or incidents with people that challenge your faith? 6.There are ex-mormons perticularly women, who says there's not equality for women in mormon church. What do you feel about that? 7.Can you give me some ideas of what you think the culture you feel that aren't true that you don't follow wholeheartedly. 8.Can you tell us who Joseph Smith is and what he means to you? 9.Who is Jesus Christ to you? 10.There are evangelicals call mormon cults, about the secrecy in the temple and garments. Can you talk about what garments are and what it means? 11.After you leave college, will you go back to Utah? or do you want to stay in the larger world, be a part of the community? 12.Will you marry a mormon?
Here's an article about the interview at Summa Theologica, where you can also check interviews with students from other faiths.
