when the years are quiet and good, talk about eating

Eating is the same among human beings, and eating with "food color" ranks first, which is nothing to dispute. Being able to use fire is a revolutionary leap-heating and cooking food. Therefore, civilization cannot be separated from eating.
"Eating food" has been a curse since ancient times. In recent years, the meaning of this word has changed on the Internet. Being able to cook is the real eating food. Let me extend it again, otherwise it is greedy.
Weibo often cooks his own dishes, which are basically home-cooked dishes. Many people like to watch it, including those who have opposite views on me at ordinary times. Sometimes, the next day after eating, some netizens follow suit and cook.
Actually, I don't know how to cook, but I have a sharp mouth. The food in the restaurant is just enough to eat. In recent 2 years, I mainly eat out or buy cooked food to make do with a meal, mainly because I am lazy. I prefer cooking to washing pots and bowls. I really don't like eating out, so I cook it myself.
In recent years, I have cooked more by myself. One reason is that the ingredients in restaurants outside are really not reassuring, although the surface is quite clean. Another time I had a meal, I saw the restaurant replenish onr's stock. The cooking oil at least five times larger than the Luhua brand oil drum was sold to the restaurant for only one hundred yuan, and the restaurant owner finally made a deal for 9 yuan. I was shocked to see this, even the cost of exquisite waste oil would not be so cheap.

With the growth of my age, I like home-cooked meals more and more, preferably the kind of special folk cooking. The stomach has a memory, hunger and food, and the stomach remembers it clearly and comes out from time to time.
a few months after I got out of prison, Mr. Li, the first art teacher, took my brother and me to Gloria Hotel in Yalong Bay, Sanya to paint murals and eat and stay in the hotel. Later, I heard that It' Hotel was demolished and rebuilt. At that time, there was only one hotel in Yalong Bay, and a white luxury cruise ship stood on the original beach landform, which was beautiful and spectacular.
after several years in it, I ate and lived in a five-star hotel all at once, and I fell into the swill tank like a pig, eating and drinking enough. Hundreds of kinds of buffet foods are tempting, and the appetite is full. It is comfortable and authentic to drink a glass of cold fruit juice before meals.
At first, I liked eating three meals a day in the hotel, and I was forced to pretend to be a gentleman with a knife and fork. Almost ten days later, no matter how good I eat, I still feel empty in my stomach. What are the shortcomings?
Later, I proposed that everyone go to the city to eat Zhajiang Noodles, and it was unanimously passed. Driving 4 miles in the city, I found a small restaurant opened by the northeast people. The boss said that the soy sauce was shipped from the northeast, and of course we liked it. I asked for two garlic bags and got ready. As soon as Zhajiang Noodles served, you guys started to eat.
I was the first to finish eating, and then they finished eating one after another. I said, did you notice? As soon as Zhajiang Noodles came up, we didn't say a word, so we all started to eat. You guys laughed. In fact, they were tired of eating in the hotel, too. I'm embarrassed to say. We each asked for another bowl and chatted while eating, which was very happy. I said with emotion: it seems that it is impossible to completely westernize, and it is difficult to change the tradition, no matter how good or bad it is.

Soon after, the cactus hotel in Yalong Bay was built, and we went there to do some art projects. The hotel ate and stayed, and had a glass of the Great Wall out of the ice before meals, which was dry and comfortable. But we still go to the city to eat stewed home-cooked dishes for a week. There is a "Northeastern" good restaurant, eating chopped green onion cakes, stewed mushrooms with chicken, etc., authentic! It's true that one side is different from the other, and the adaptability of the stomach is very poor, which also affects the "feelings" of the mind and brain.
Then I went to work in an advertising company, which was responsible for some meetings and other matters in the offices of Intel Corporation in China. Advertising companies are good at this. There is no standard for food expenses on business trips, and they are reimbursed.
I'm mainly responsible for the training sessions of Intel's offices around the world. World-famous companies give meetings to distributors around the world. Of course, it's the best hotel in the local area. We also eat in the hotel, although we don't like it very much, in order to save time. I have been to many five-star hotels all over the country, and found that the tastes of food are similar, so eating it often will make people bored.
The work is hard, so we need to find local workers to do some work, such as the projector screen to be processed, the three-dimensional structure around it, and how to arrange the posters at the venue. Sometimes I often do it myself, such as putting the heavy study materials in the warehouse in place. Once I was thirsty, I told the beautiful waitress to get a pot of coffee. It was a pot. The waiter said, sir, that pot is more than one hundred. The waiter took me as a migrant worker. I said, what happened to more than one hundred? The coffee in the hotel is really better than the instant Nestle.

We usually go out on business. When we get out of the hotel, we take a taxi and tell the driver about the fare in 1 yuan, and look for the most popular restaurant in your area. The first time I went to Guangzhou, I showed my timidity. The driver put it down for us, and a colleague asked me to go to a nearby restaurant to see how it was.
As soon as I entered, a strong smell came to my face. There were chickens, ducks, cats, dogs, snakes and unspeakable animals in iron cages, and all kinds of seafood were dazzling.
I turned my head and came out. I told you guys that this is a supermarket, not a restaurant. It's just like a farmer's market. A colleague said that Guangzhou restaurant is like this, go and eat inside. As soon as you enter, through the food selection area, the elegant restaurant shows you a large row of pots for everyone to choose from. No nonsense, eat!
The workload in Guangzhou was heavy that time, and the boss came to bring two colleagues the next day. I worked hard at night, got up late the next day, and went to a good teahouse to have morning tea at ten o'clock. This is also my first time to eat authentic morning tea in Guangzhou. It seems that two colleagues are also the first time.
after the boss ordered the meal, he ordered a lot. When the waiter delivered the food, the boss called and we started eating. When the boss finished the phone call, he looked at the table and said, Fuck, I ate all the tables while I was on the phone! We laughed and said that this is not enough to eat. One steamer is three jiaozi, and the amount of food is too small. A plate of chicken feet is four. . . This is not enough to eat.
the boss called the service to order again, specifically saying that they were all double. Morning tea is delicious, and I have to admire Cantonese food. After a while, it was dry again, and the boss ordered it again. After laughing, he said that Guangzhou lost this job! There were so many guests in the teahouse that the waiter didn't have time to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and we didn't let them clean up, so the meal was left on the empty plate.
The beautiful waiter gave us food while smiling, and everyone around us who drank morning tea looked at us with a smile. We ordered it three times, and the plates and bowls on the table were thick. I ate a crooked stomach. When you guys walked back to the hotel, you also said that Guangzhou people are too stingy to ask for a pot of tea or two or three small dishes. It's really boring to talk without eating!

During my years in an advertising company, I did eat a lot of delicious food all over the country, especially when I was reimbursed by my company. Eating delicious food without spending my own money was refreshing, and I ate more.
I gradually lost interest in the delicious food in restaurants, and missed the food at home when I was a child. In addition, my mother died early, and the memories of her are frequent. Until now, all the memories about my mother have turned into sadness. Mother's cooking, of course, is also a part of memories.
At that time, the family was generally poor. Although we were better under the conditions of large state-owned enterprises, the overall environment could not be compared with now. Mother always treats meals in a different way, as if it is her religion to cook well at home.
For example, my mother cooked dumplings with half corn flour and half white flour. At that time, she ate this because she was poor. Buy a catty of pork, cut the skin with a thick layer of fat, then cook it with water and chop it up. At that time, Chinese cabbage was very large, so the vegetable bundles were blanched and chopped with hot water. The big vegetable dumplings made of fat skin and vegetable dumplings are very fragrant, especially when the meat slices are still with fat. The next day, I used cabbage and meat without a big band to wrap jiaozi.
With the growth of age, I feel nostalgic, and the food likes to eat the feeling and taste of the past, and I have eaten a lot of food in high-end restaurants. I have eaten in restaurants around the community for many years, and I am too lazy to cook. I really didn't want to eat, so I recalled my childhood meals at home and tried to cook them myself. I felt that the system was good and the cooking was ok-including jiaozi, dough soup, Zhajiang Noodles and all kinds of dishes with past tastes.

Although I don't like washing pots and bowls, I regard cooking as a kind of enjoyment, an artistic creation and a feeling. Yesterday, a netizen asked me, how long does it take to cook a day? When he asked this question, it highlighted the lack of sentiment in life. I replied like this:
"A netizen just replied to me," How long does it take you to cook this day? "
I don't know how to answer this question. It can only be explained in a tall way.
cooking is also a part of life, not to mention for yourself. If you are troublesome for yourself, why pay for others?
The process of life is also the passing of life years. In your country, although you are alive and wronged, you should discover the beauty and fun every time you pass by, and enjoy it.
Of course, you should have lofty ideals and goals in life. If you want to travel to a resort, don't give up enjoying the scenery along the way.
The same is true between men and women. After all, vigorous love is a minority or exists in movies and literature, and most people live together in daily necessities.
If you love her (him), you should appreciate her (him) in a dull way. A move, a joke, a knowing look at each other, and even occasional anger and epilepsy should be regarded as a kind of enjoyment and adjustment in life.
Listen to the other side's anger as a symphony. What you see is Seiji Ozawa's natural and unrestrained command, not her (his) entanglement.
Only when you know how to appreciate can you appreciate the meaning of love; If you know love, you will experience enjoyment.
this is true for men and women, and so is cooking.
