也許因為我是懶蟲,對於公婆即將來訪一點雀躍感都沒有。我不想打掃,也不想把各角落的零星東西堆到衣櫥裡藏起來眼不見為淨。當然,公婆是不會介意我家看起來整齊還是紛亂,他們在農場的房子,可是讓泥巴鞋和貓狗進進出出的,和我生活在台北公寓的爸媽自然是截然不同。媽媽來訪時,每天早上六點,我和老公就被吸塵器嚇醒,我只好起身下樓,看見老媽在吸木板地,還問,你的窗戶是多久沒擦了(我從來沒擦過)?雖然公婆不會介意,雖然我沒像我媽那樣潔癖,但是有客人來,我還是會打掃一番,並計畫如何招待人家。
公婆來訪,每年一次,都是藉替我們載牛肉的機會來看看我們。說到這牛肉呢,因為公婆有個認識的牧牛農兼屠夫,價格比市面上便宜,所以我們總是和兩三個朋友一起分一頭牛。向他買一整隻牛,他會把每部位切好,真空包裝後立即冷凍。公婆的超大型休旅車就會載著裝滿牛肉的寶麗龍箱子(有十來箱),由北往南行個500英哩,約十小時,來到我們家。
我們因此買了個冷凍櫃,有點像台灣超市裡擺冰棒的那種。現在,冷凍櫃裡還有一堆東西,和還沒吃的牛肉,公婆要來,我就得清冰櫃,好讓新的牛肉駐進。想到此又懶性發作,覺得好煩哪!

Dear Mei,
對呀!我公婆現在退休,農場的羊也賣了,所以時間彈性,他們也藉機來訪。唉!冰箱裡東西好多好亂,看了就頭大!你也討厭清理啊,呵呵!

Dear 變形蟲:
我在烹飪方面真的很遲鈍,看你提到牛骨才想到:沒錯,有幾包牛骨在凍著!可是從來沒想過要拿來做啥。我做過牛肉湯,想弄牛肉麵,可是味道實在是平淡無味!
我和你一樣,現在都會想著吃的,尤其是台灣的小點心小吃。我在亞洲市場買了些冷凍花捲包子等,早餐就吃那個再配豆花!等不及想知道你寶寶的性別呢!
Ziti,
A good friend of mine gave me this recipe , maybe you will like it. She highly recommends that using beef bone to make this. ^.^

Well, the sex of the baby is.........a BOY!!!!!!!! LOL~~ I can't believe that my dream came true. @_@!!!
However, due to some suspicious parts on baby's brain, heart and neck. We decided to do amniocentesis next Monday at 10 AM. I know, it sucks but this is for the best. Um..I am not really scared of the needle la, just hope for the best :-DDD.
Have a wonderful weekend~ ^.^
Dear 變形蟲:
謝謝你提供的食譜!下週天氣會轉涼,剛好可以熬湯,一定要來試試!
好棒喔!恭喜你一舉得子!!讓你心想事成了!哈哈!那你婆婆不就猜錯了...
為了安心點,羊膜穿刺是必要的,你不怕針就沒啥好擔心的啦!祈禱結果是好的,先別想太多!祝福你~~
週末愉快!!
Thanks la ~ :-DDD I just talked to my mom-in-law, she knew we had an ultrasoun today, so she called my hubby at work...then called me to check on how I was doing. Sigh...hopefully, my in-laws won't get too upset about ultrasound result today.... :-S.
LOL Ziti, you are not the only one. It took us almost 4 years after we moved into our new home to finally open up rest of the boxes we packed and throw some stuff out. And we still have 1 box left... LOL.... Talk about "Fall" cleaning....
Dear 變形蟲,
你的婆婆很關心你喔!祝你有個愉快的探親之旅!!

Dear Pipipi,
呵呵!還沒開的搬家箱子我們也有哩!搬家是最累的.....
沒想到你公婆還專呈送牛肉給你們,真是了不起
是呀台灣目前的物價還是很混亂,所以我已經很久沒有爽快的吃青菜了,從上次的颱風到現在,又經歷了幾個大大小小的颱風,今年的颱風真不是普通的多...所以到目前為止葉菜類價格還是高居不下,尤其是蔥價目前還是很高貴的
妳的婆婆和我婆婆有點一樣
對塞滿冰箱都是很有興趣
說起來有這樣的婆婆
我們是很幸福的
所以只好請妳努力多吃點肉肉囉
Dear dos,
我公婆就趁機來這裡玩囉,不然十(多)小時的車程可是累人的。希望台灣的天氣恢復正常,不然沒菜吃是很難過的呢!

Dear faith,
呵呵!我都要再三強調冰箱快爆滿,請婆婆別帶太多東西來,我們的婆婆就怕我們餓著了!其實是很溫馨的!
I found another recipe that you can use beef bone to make some soup. Enjoy~
