ＴＩＦＦ

今年中因出走歐洲而錯過了ＳＩＦＦ，幸好來到多倫多有ＴＩＦＦ，而且比ＳＩＦＦ更大規模 （來自５５個國家３４９套電影）。

想看的（比較大路的）有：
Lust, Caution
Blood Brothers
Love Comes Lately
Chaotic Ana
Chacun son cinéma

因為錯過了買學生套票，所以不能多看。況且沒太多時間．．．

開學一個星期，漸漸習慣了。每天不到６ＡＭ便起床，陪伴我的是比我更早的娘，還有早晨日出：

OK, that's all for practicing Chinese typing for now :-)

So the Culinary Skills lesson on Friday is pretty fun, as the chef told us that we don't use any measuring cups--we use large eggs to "measure" our stuffs. Each large egg has about 2 oz, so:

3 eggs = 1/2 cups
1 egg = 3 table spoons
1/2 egg = 4 tea spoons

Oh, and the chef said that he doesn't use white pepper, as it destroys any flavor. I was a bit skeptical on this, until my mom cooked fish in tomato that same night--the white pepper she added was way too strong and stimulated my throat. After doing some research on the web though, the white pepper is supposed to be less pungent than black pepper.... hum... that doesn't make sense to me now.

I am planning to try replacing black pepper with white pepper and see what the difference would be. And I'm going to try it out on a 羅宋湯 ：）
