29.05.2012 | 我愛西瓜

[Volume 7 Issue 5, #1429]
咁多種本地水果之中, 我最喜歡係西瓜.. 呢個開場白係唔係似曾相識?? 哈哈, 以前讀書肯定有一篇作文係《我最喜愛的水果》, 開始一定係寫呢句啦~~ 言歸正傳, 最近天氣炎熱, 真係靜靜地坐住喺度都會流汗.. 其中一個最好嘅消暑方法, 就係食冰凍西瓜.. 咁食西瓜嘅最佳方法又係點呢?? 將西瓜切開兩邊, 然後直接用匙羹食, 見到匙羹插落去嘅時候, 西瓜汁四濺, 再擺落口慢慢溶化, 真係涼到透心透肺呀~~ :D
[後記: 有點無聊嘅貼, 不過我噚日真係食咗半邊西瓜..]
among the many local fruits, my favorite is watermelon.. hmm, this sentence sounds familiar right?? haha, still remember there's always a composition for "my favorite fruit" in schooldays and we always started it like this?? ok back to the topic, so the weather is so hot recently even sitting still will make you sweat.. one of the best way to cool down is to eat some icy cold watermelon.. and what's the best way to eat a watermelon you may ask?? cut it into halves and straight away use your spoon to scoop of course.. seeing the juice oozing out when you force your spoon in, bring it into your mouth and it slowly melts, this will totally cool yourself from outside-in~~ :D
[NB: quite a nonsense post, but i really had half a watermelon yesterday..]

    ReplyDelete
  22. First you cut the watermelon into half (horizontally) then you cut along the seed..
    Then all the seed will appear at the side of the piece that you cut.
    You just use your spoon and take out the watermelon seed and there you go..
    seedless watermelon..

    1. You know, TM. There's a popular diet in Japan & Korea. It's banana diet.

      Eat banana before each meal (breakfast, lunch, dinner) then drink warm water. Can still eat normal but can lose weight.

      Why? Because after eating that banana, you want to squat also scared. Digestion becomes really good and you make frequent stop to the toilet! ;p

      Delete
    2. 'Can lose weight', is the one that attracts me most :D

      Eat healthy fruits, eat normal and lose weight. Tomorrow I'm gonna stuff myself with bananas.
