Christmas this year is very special for me because i have a new life due to a successful kidney transplant. Though i have to be on medication forever, there are a lot more things i can eat now, water i can drink now and can go without dialysis.
阿弥陀佛. 感恩! 还有要感谢我妈妈一直陪伴着我, 照顾我, 煮给我吃 etc. Mother is a very great cook. She bought a rice cooker from Carrefour the second day we were in Tianjin when she went shopping with Patrick. And marvelously she can cook everything with the rice cooker: rice, porridge, meat, steamed fish, fried vegetable, soups etc. Of course, thanks to William who left us a humidifier, kettle and some bowls and utencils as well.
China packed food are very salty and oily. They also come in very big portions. The first day when mum and me are there, we ordered in and my god, we ordered rice, 1 vege and 1 meat but they come in 6 packets - 2 packet of rice, 2 packet of meat and 2 packet of vege. I think the portions were enough for the day's lunch, the day's dinner and following day's lunch. The vege and meat were very oily even though we said less salt and oil. Ok, once bitten twice shy, from the second day onwards, mum would cook whenever possible. And hey, maybe the ingredients in China is fresh, whatever she cook, its so delicious.
The 金钱菇 we bought at Formax Supermarket is also vey nice no matter if cooked with chicken, meat or vegetables. The apples in Tianjin is also very sweet compared to Singapore. However, after my surgery, i feel bloated most of the time and don't have much appetite, hence food don't taste as nice anymore.
We were there in Tianjin for a total of 23 days.
