I feel like there’s an endless list of things to do before I leave for Taiwan!
Like today I took Caleb to get another set of passport pictures taken for his visa. Then tomorrow I need to turn it in to ‘get’ his visa.
Long day at work today too. Though that story never changes. I didn’t get to have lunch until 3:30pm today. Stayed a little later at work until almost 8:00pm. After which I rushed to Costco, then RUSHED to the Chinese market to pick up some more stuff we needed at home. I’m constantly rushing around these days.
I got home around 9:45pm, brought all the groceries into the house, put them away, and started on the soup. I need to have my soup. Made pork bone soup with onions, carrots, a little scallion and ginger. The whole house smells so good. Can’t wait to have some in the morning. I put different stuff in it everyday when I heat it up. Sometimes in the morning I’ll scoop some out into a smaller pot, and when it starts to boil, I crack an egg inside to make a poached egg. Other times after it starts to boil I’ll throw extra veggies in there like broccoli, or cabbage. Some times it’ll be seaweed and eggs, or just fresh chopped scallions, or cilantro…. The list goes on. I LOVE hot soup. Oh! And I LOVE dumping cooked rice into soup after it boils and eating it just like that.

Wow, Wa, you are so dedicated! Cooking at 9:45 p.m.! That soup sounds delicious, too. Seb is lucky! I love soup but am too lazy to make it myself. Plus, Johnny's not used to having soup (unless it's like for lunch or something), so I rarely cook Asian-style soup. I guess it's a good thing I married a white guy, because I really suck at cooking Chinese dishes (but am good at the American stuff ... it's so easy compared to Chinese dishes). I would have been kicked to the curb right after the honeymoon! LOL.
Good luck getting everything done for Taiwan!
