It was indeed great to get an ecard from our foster daughter that live in Italy.... It is always a happy feeling getting news from her.... Well that is the world and cyberspace.... We get connected fast nowadays, unlike before a letter would take the earliest ten day to get from Italy to Malaysia.... Now with the internet its take mere seconds.... It has been a great Sunday with those kids... Making a mess of the house, toys scattering all over... Eating ice cream and you know what would happen when kids eat ice cream.... You have to mop the floor... How neat!!...It is just like that... They would carry the ice cream around and in the tropic ice cream melt fast.... So it would drip....And the rest is the interesting part..... mess of ice cream on the floor.... And the little boy want nothing else other then coke.... They could not even pronounce it perfectly and yet they know the taste of coke.... I guessed we have to accept the liking and dislike of this generation lives of Kentucky Fried Chicken, Pizza Hut and McDonald Burger, coke and the like of the fast food culture.... They get to acquire the taste very fast indeed and eventually would never refuse an offer of these junk foods.... Well what can we say.... It is us that introduce this eating habit to this young and the innocent...And now they have take to liking eating the food of the west... Well not that west...Its taste has been so adjusted to suite our palate with the addition of the chilly sauce and other spices, they now have the hot and spicy chicken too..... The chicken... It is really finger licking good!! I love it too..... Actually our eating habit have somewhat progress with time.... Being influence by the foods we experiences in our travel overseas and the introduction the western fast food at home.... So the menu at home sometime change too.... Well Joan.... We have spaghetti too at time.... And everyone in the family love eating spaghetti and of course the little one take its without the sauce...To make it more interesting and palatable to our taste we add hot and spicy chilly to the original spaghetti sauce...To me it taste better then the original...Sweet and spicy...Yam mee!!.... I hope when they are here we would have the opportunity of enjoying their cooking of Italian foods... And she could learn to cook some of our Malaysian foods... A cultural exchange of a sorts.... Have a nice day....
