Time flies..... my last blog entry was 20 days ago!!!! What have I done in the past 20 days? Running house chores, got worn out by 2 monsters, just the usual stuff I guessed.
Being a pro-C9, one of my very important duty is to make sure no single scrap of food is wasted. I checked my fridge and found an almost expiring load of tofu, a box of figs and was thinking what should I do with them.
Somehow, both ingredients reminded me of my dad. Figs being one of his favorite fruits, and tofu being a kind of liquid food that he could eat in his final days. Sour and bitter memories gushed out and I so automatically prepared this fluid diet tailored to dad's diet.
The upper layer was walnut and fig mousse seasoned with dad's favorite Cantonese steam fish soya sauce. The bottom was simple tofu mousse. In my mind, I only had one purpose, hoping dad could eat this because he had swallowing difficulties.
Tears just rolled down from my cheek for no reasons (苦笑）. Already 4.5 years, the pain got lessened but not gone. Yup, 女人都是水做的・・・・・・・
Should I spoon a mouthful in his mouth? Did you like it dad? Sigh...........
That was the past and I still have a long journey ahead of me. Put the past behind and look into the future. Life is tough but I can make it through.
