三十多歲的人
都經歷過有些事情
會無端端消失

同齡朋友離開人世
毫無先兆失業
好友反面
拍拖十年分手

花好多心機栽培的事
被無情摧毀
從不擔心的家庭朋友關係
原來已經慢慢磨損
你會問：
如果最後都是失望
不如一開始不投放
任何感情時間心機
就不會受傷
我會答：
別人欣賞到沿途風景
恐怕你也只是看到一丁點

問自己
你的時間都投放在哪裡？
努力的目標有意義嗎？
神要你在世上的目標
是吃盡美食嗎？
是打機嗎？
是看電視嗎？
還是什麼？

最近很躁底
諸事不順，所以躁底
於是諸事更加不順
不經意就對身邊人
言語、行動、眼神
流露出厭惡之情

雖然理性地努力抑壓住
又明白諸事雖然不順
有諸事去煩惱已經讓我好感恩

人到早期中年
人生充滿著矛盾與苦澀
爭競與友愛是相反的
事業與家庭是衝突的
田園的美麗，無時間欣賞
打波流汗的機會，都要分秒爭取
所有事情都要努力
一不留神就沖走不見

當要發生的大事終於來到
這種苦味應該就會暫時過去
請原諒我的

Kid's Menu - spaghetti napolitan

The first time I heard of this dish called "spaghetti napolitan" in the Japanese TV drama "Quartet," I kept thinking I had never seen this dish in my Italian cookbooks! Why does Napoli have its own spaghetti dish? Later I realized it is really a Japanese dish, made with ketchup instead of fresh tomatoes. Blasphemous? Yes it is, but my kid loves it anyway.

My son and I went to school today only finding out it was CLOSED! So I stayed home, watched him and made lunch out of nothing. Ketchup, olive oil, salt, pecorino cheese, cherry tomatoes. He finished it without wasting any time. #sebastianapproved

Updates 9/29: 

I found out the Italian tomato sauce thing is called tomato sauce, marinara sauce, neapolitan sauce, pomodoro sauce, etc, depending on where you are from. The most famous San Marzano tomatoes are from the region of Naples, thus the connection to Neapolitan style. And then there is an imitation of the sauce using ketchup in Japan and Hong Kong, and this style is called Napolitan in Japan.
