擔當 Thoughts on Happy Hour and Cooking Sous Vide

漸漸覺得自己銀座歐吉桑魂上身,下班後不是歸心似箭,反而常想找個地方淺酌吃小菜靜享happy hour.  鬧中取靜真正奢侈,繁忙空出的心寧則像入定,是份超然. 
Allow me to paraphrase Mother Teresa… When hard work leads only to more hard working, I will still work hard and just take frequent breaks :) The sun, the breeze, and the nice warm weather make it difficult for anyone to stay inside.

最後的貴族 Downton Abbey

 想像力大抵是長途通勤的救贖,每天複習一集Downton Abbey,  開車塞車也變得較能忍受(難怪劇中司機Tom Branson 會邀三小姐私奔,車伕這職業太無聊了... 咦?好像劃錯重點:P)  連續劇無論取材古今中外,主題總繞著家族密史姐妹情仇婆媳糾葛團團轉,DA別緻處在於考究衣著場景和雋永中帶點英式幽默的對白 欣賞Julian Fellowes對角色的刻畫, 細膩且層次豐富. 劇中女角比男角出色, 眾男角除了樓上樓下的溫情大家長Lord Grantham和Mr. Carson, 耐人尋味的只有攻心計的同志男僕Thomas和頗具梟雄氣質, 成熟瀟灑的報業大亨Sir Richard Carlisle. 
I AM SO INTO DOWNTON ABBEY, period. 
Not sure why, it must be my daily long commute that listening to the milky voices of Lady Mary and Lady Edith(although their conversation was full of snide remarks toward each other)makes the drive, the congested traffic(yup, Go Giants…) more tolerable.
