Choose A Watermelon 挑西瓜
西瓜甜不甜- 外皮, 蒂頭漏玄機。
路邊一整車西瓜，到底哪一顆才是好瓜，賣西瓜三十幾年的陳先生，用看的就看得出來。西瓜底部的圈圈，越小越好，切開來看，果然，果肉又紅又紮實。
相反的，底部圈圈越大皮越厚越難吃，切開證實，不但不夠紅，還帶點白白的肉，明顯甜度大扣分。除了看西瓜底，也要看西瓜頭，就是所謂的蒂頭，如果是直直的一條線，不要，如果是捲曲圈起來的，馬上買。
還有西瓜紋路和顏色，紋路整齊就是好瓜，如果花紋亂七八糟，裡面肯定也是一團糟，顏色呢，最好挑青綠色，不要拿霧霧白白的瓜，掌握瓜頭捲，瓜尾小，瓜紋正，和瓜色綠這四大原則，保證你用看的就能買到滿意的瓜。

追悼柯施維亞女士
樂觀活躍似小兔子93歲的柯施維亞女士於今晨(110719)4時蒙上主恩召回天家。求上帝安慰遺族。
Email from her daughter: "I have been in touch with many of you for weeks, giving you updates on my mom. About 3 weeks ago, she went into the hospital with congestive heart failure. She thought that she could beat it so she told the doctors to do what ever they can. After an attempt to open her heart valve was unsuccessful, the doctors said there wasn't anything more they could do. Mom tried to recover, but a decision was made to send her to a hospice home in Washington, PA. Here we visited her for 11 days. The nurses said that she was a strong women. That sick little heart just kept going, and going and going. We always called her the energized bunny. At 92 1/2 she was remarkable .
Today, Tuesday, July 19th mom past away around 4 am. We do not have final arrangements made, but I will let you know as soon as they are made."
May God Comfort you and your family.

Dough figurines 捏麵人
Dough figurines 捏麵人
捏麵人是一項非常具有鄉土色彩的傳統技藝，它原名是米雕人，又叫雕工米人，因為材料和語言的關係，在台灣叫它做捏麵人。由於麵人色彩鮮艷可以食用，所以非常受到兒童們的喜愛。可是這麼精緻的造型把他吃掉，實在覺得可惜。(※當今的捏麵人只供觀賞用。)(YouTube video)
