Re: 分享外國 或 台灣童書 (1-8歲適用) 收穫

My maid has been with me for almost 4 years. Over these years, the food remains terrible --- oily, salty, ugly etc etc.

You are lucky to have a maid who is also a good cook.

PS. I do not know how to cook, and I do not have time to cook la........

Re: 分享外國 或 台灣童書 (1-8歲適用) 收穫

kittylock,

I can't cook either (well maybe just enough to stay alive but definitely not tasty).

Enrol your maid on a TownGas cookery class la !!
No wonder your son doesn't eat much !!
Worthwhile investment o黎架。
I really mean it !! (That is, if you intend to employ your bunbun for at least another contract.)
Your entire family will benefit.

我個印印識得週圍去買靚野o家,eg 去 深水土步 街市買嘉美雞(好好雞味),買腐竹(煲糖水,包腐皮卷);去旺角買遊水海鮮(買到可以自己去魚缸揀,個老闆娘唔知點解同佢好投契);去kln city 買豬肉(個老闆係我個仔的同學的家人),買鹵水鵝/豬頸肉,買生果蔬菜;去我們舊居附近買牛柳牛展; 買薑買醋煲豬腳薑,醃子薑; 去豆腐工場買豆腐,etc。每檔都係買慣的,不會騙她。試過買菜騙她,俾佢鬧,又叫d姊妹唔好幫襯。我每個月只需要俾$$,由佢作主買乜,有時我們想食乜就講佢知,連我個仔都識得點菜話明天要食乜。佢每月有mark 低數目俾我,即使打斧頭,都唔會太多$。起碼我完全唔使煩這些。

Of course another reason is, my son is vvv 為食!
In fact, my entire family is 為食!

Re: 分享外國 或 台灣童書 (1-8歲適用) 收穫

bluestar, kittylock,

I could cook quite well ga. I could make pizza, swiss sauce pigeon, pei par bean curb, roast mutton/chicken/beef, different kind of deserts, special soup.........etc. But, I will be a small potato in cooking when comparing w/ bluestar's indo. I attended a lot of cooking classes in the past but not nowadays la.

I tried to have a look at //優美的中文- 初 中 高 盒裝//
(Pg 150) at China Bookstore but to no avail. If you find them somewhere, do tell me so that I can look look. I just look look but not going to buy yet.





che,

what did you buy for yourself at SS? curious?

Btw,have you bought your "I can read on my own" (Chinese translation pls) at Teacher Association? What about MyDear? Can Ms Sq help ? My kid is reading the Orange one now. As from Yellow, beginning to be quite difficult for 2-3 yrs old ga la. Not to mention Green, .....Purple.


Salami,

FXPC,

Re: 分享外國 或 台灣童書 (1-8歲適用) 收穫

Hello Gloria,

For detail please Click Here

I want to buy this long time ago but too expensive for a piece of toy, previous sale only had 15% off so when I saw the sp. price (almost 25% off) today I put it in the basket right away. I like it because it looks very “real” and with big buttons and big LCD display. My son said looks like the one in PNshop wor. I remember that SS even used it as their cashier when they were in the old premises.

Bluestar,

You are so lucky to have a good cook at home. Do you know how many lessons did your maid attend the Towngas cookery class??? Usually, they only teach 2-3 dishes on each lesson, she must went there for many lessons to be that good la.

Re: 分享外國 或 台灣童書 (1-8歲適用) 收穫

Dear all drooling mums,

My Indo maid has been working in HK for the past 12 years - 8 yrs for her previous employer, nearly 4y now for me. Most ppl wanted to employ underpaid Indo maids at the time, so she had to go back to Indo after her previous employer did not renew her contract. (To avoid paying long service $$ award; it was 4y contract with the daughter and another 4y for the mum or something like that.) Also few ppl would be prepared to employ experienced Indo maids for fear they already learn to be naughty. She had to take care of a 1600 flat in Royal Ascot + a girl and a boy, plus cleaning the flat of the granny sometiems.

In my case I dared to take on an exp maid because I live with my mum, and my parents can cook well (which was why I can't). Also I pay full pay. So this was a case of gaak saan maai ngau (buying a cow from the other side of the mountain). Well it turned out to be a good gamble. Though she has her faults in general her performance is OK. Mostly I let her drive on automatic gear.

She learnt cooking while in the Indo training school while waiting to come to HK. Her mum also worked in HK before, went back about 2 yrs ago after working in HK for 15y - she must have been one of the first batch of Indo maids to work in HK. My maid's paternal aunt also works in HK, and there is a whole clan of cousins here. But my maid is a devout Muslim, quite clean and strict herself, quite smart (knows quite a lot of Engl by Indo standards), has enough self-discipline (eg over phone calls), so no communication / bf problem.

Her previous employer paid for her cookery courses at Mrs. Fong's, also Towngas courses, so she can cook a feast, incl shark's fin and abalone, swallow's nest, Chin medicine. (But we seldom have these at home.) Her mum was also a good cook and often taught her. Her mum could also make glutinous dumplings (for Tuen Ng Festival) very well ga. Of course she knows Indo / hot dishes -- BaDung (?spelling) Beef, curry.

So if you want your family to be well-fed, do let your maid take cookery courses at Mrs. Fong's and Towngas, and your whole family will benefit. Then you will only need to fine-tune her cooking to suit your tastes and habits.
Or do what I did - employ a maid who can cook well because her previous employer paid for the cookery courses.
Or you can take the cookery courses yourselves, then teach her how to do it.
One more MUST is the maid's willingness / interest to learn cookery.
In any case, after the cookery courses, you must fine-tune the product to suit you and your family's taste.

My son loves : potato chicken wings, soya sauce chicken, pork chop with onion, sweet and sour pork. He insisted on taking lunch thermos to school instead of ordering lunchbox, 1 because he wanted our maid to cook him chicken wings everyday, 2 because he feared that the lunchbox would not taste good and he will be hungry. So he preferred to carry the whole lot of schoolbag and lunchbag to school everyday like a donkey / camel, but still refused NOT to take lunch to school.

My maid also cooks soup well, we prefer the clear type of soup, sometimes western mixed vege soup.
And our entire family is quite fat ga.

Re: 分享外國 或 台灣童書 (1-8歲適用) 收穫

I've bought the following duplicate books (brand new) and wanna sell them at cost to all book friends here:

[size=medium]1. 小熊維尼的第一本動物百科 ($50) [size=medium]<--- SOLD




[size=medium]2. 心靈成長小學-勇敢小天使 Let's Talk About Hurts ($30)[size=medium]<--- SOLD



這是一本探討孩子內心恐懼的書。

內容描寫孩子們從一開始對自己不了解的事物產生恐懼與不安,到明瞭事情原委後如釋重負的心理過程.整篇故事情節緊湊,插圖鮮明生動。「親子悄悄話」更滿布小朋友的童言童語,因此讓爸爸媽媽更能貼近孩子的心,帶領他們衝破恐懼的枷鎖!

[size=medium]3. 保罗与音乐会 ($25)[size=medium]<--- SOLD





透過書中小主人翁保羅隨著在樂團中擔任大提琴手的叔叔聽音樂會的過程,先到小提琴店拿琴弓,然後由音樂家專屬的音樂廳後門進入,演出後台音樂家們忙著作最後的準備、工作人員忙著確認台上座位、譜架等一般人比較不容易接觸到的音樂周邊事物,乃至於音樂會正式開始,透過已經退休的團員沃爾夫的解說,讓指揮、樂評人的角色、以及不同音樂型式,都有清楚的認識。不但拉近小朋友和音樂的距離,也從中知道音樂背後更多的精采故事以及一場完美音樂會背後的複雜運作。

Re: 分享外國 或 台灣童書 (1-8歲適用) 收穫

Hello Bluestar,

Many thanks for your detailed info. about your maid’s background, no wonder she can cook so well – has good cooking mum, high expectation employers, attended cookery classes, works in hk for almost 12 years and … But I think the most important is as you said - the maid must likes to cook and little smart with common sense otherwise no matters how many course she attends still can’t cook.

Hey, since your maid can cook a feast, you should invite us for dinner – just kidding

Btw, don’t let your son eats chicken wings everyday la, as the farmer always injects the stuff through wings. To be honest I also find chicken (any part) is the tastiest meat in the world, but I have to limit it to 2 meals per week (1 night ch/wings, 1 night ch/filets or ch/piece)

Re: 分享外國 或 台灣童書 (1-8歲適用) 收穫

snoopyma,

Yes, mam.

Forgot to add: my maid buys Mark-6 every time, and usually gets 3-4 numbers right, so she is not willing to leave HK ga. The Jockey Club pays her more than I do.

For the feast, she knows how to cook, as she did it for her previous employer who throws mahjong parties. But the taste / flavour needs to be fine-tuned. We do not use MSG / chicken essence powder at home. We prefer buying fresh meat instead of frozen meat (except for my son's chicken wings), then freeze it in our own fridge (which in our minds is better than buying frozen meat).

No wonder nobody in my family gets any prize over $320 !!

My Indo maid's father won an Indo Mark-6 back home, over HK$100,000 prize, and she said my dead father gave her the numbers in her dream !!

Wonder why my father didn't come into my dreams and gave me the numbers !!
