http://thecoconuthead.blogspot.com/2008/10/rasberry-mojito-and-taro-cake.html周末在家折騰好吃好喝的。想來想去，幹脆做點RaspberryMojitoand香腸芋餅吧。忙活著剪兩瓣新鮮的薄荷葉做裝飾。看看我的成品。象那麽一回事吧。看看近影。有點小小的得意。

http://thecoconuthead.blogspot.com/2008/10/blog-post_194.html記得高中的時候，每隔一段時間，班主任就要折騰我們一班學生一下。美其名曰“大掃除“。有沒有必要，我不知道，但是共產黨的管理方法。
不過我自己的大掃除真的是非常之必要了。自打搬進來也有5個月了。該是時間裏裏外外大掃除的時候。再加上就近工作忙得昏天黑地，兩個星期前洗的衣服還堆在筐裏。好歹是幹淨的，[

朋友來家，當然要盛情招待。又做了一次烤紅椒三明治和紅棗山藥糖水。好多東東瞎放一通。有山藥，紅棗，枸積，銀耳，蓮子，白果，葡萄幹，小湯圓。好喝又養顏。小碗還是老媽幾年前從中國老遠帶來的。開心！
