Just finish the sentence, sir

It's really interesting to try and show it on my blog.
Let's go!
1.When I was five...I was a little girl in kindergarten where there was a beautiful teacher and many cute kids and I love them all.It was a period of happy and free time...
2. March sure is...still cold especially in Changsha where rain falls frequently.Yuck!
3. When I think of pepperoni... Oh,I'm not familiar with it.However,it seems delicious when I see its picture.I'd like to have a try. :)
4. I don't think I will...become a professional actress.I love acting since my childhood,and I've got some chances playing drama in school.It's cool to stand on the stage.
5. Yesterday I heard...from a friend's letter.He also sent me a beautiful card which was made by himself.I was so excited.
6. Cowboy boots...fit some people well and I think they are really cool.
7. If I were a tree...I would be a big tree and could bring shade to those who need it.Because there is an old saying in China that the predecessor plants trees, the posterity enjoys the cool air.That means everybody should be glad to help others.
8. Computers will never...let me lose touch with my friends.It's great to own a computer.
9. The problem with toast is...hmm~~I only buy it in a supermarket.So far,I havn't found some problems with it.
10. If I could, I would definitely...travel all over the world...

Mapo Tofu (Szechwan Spiced Bean Curd)


Dad is an excellent cook who often gives us his "masterpiece" at home as well as a good teacher.As a consequence,he can cook some typical Sichuan dishes,delicious and charming.And I'm in school now.So homesick I become that many dishes my dad prepared for me in the winter holidays present in my mind,and I can't help writting one of them down--that's Mapo bean curd.
The Mapo bean curd,a typical Sichuan cuisine,enjoys a good reputation all over the world.It's hot,spicy,fresh,fragrant and crisp.:)
It is so-called hot,which means that in order to cook the dish well there must be a high temperature by means of a thick layer of oil.Meanwhile,the mince meat should be minced beef making the tofu crisper.And last but most important,dry chilies are absolutely necessary.
It's really delicious!
