This blog is partly devoted to the sharing of my learning of the English language (my well mastered mother tongue is Chinese and I am not an English teacher) and its *cultures*, partly to the current significant trends in Canada and in the world, and partly to my own random thoughts and little life. I am not religious, but I am somewhat interested in Christianity and Buddhism, among other personal interests. Welcome. And, have a good day.

Many Chinese bean curds have pungent smells.
But they are tasty in the mouth, as well as nutritious for the body.
So if they were expunged from the diet, that would be a poignant loss.
Somewhat like the case with many kinds of cheese.

Chinese companies possess staggering scales, but their products tend to be made in ways that are not assiduous enough.
Sigh. Trouble after trouble to be dealt with.

'Water meadow' corresponds to '皋' in the Chinese language.
Then, after viewing this pic at http://www.123rf.com/photo_14072061_cows-in-water-meadow.html , now you know what the name of the famous historic general '牛皋' means, don't you?
