Issey Miyake L'eau d'Issey (1992)
     Wikipedia- Like many fashion designers, Issey Miyake also has a line of perfumes. His first fragrance, the light aquatic-floral L'eau d'Issey for women, was launched in 1992. The name L'eau d'Issey (engl.: Issey's water) is a pun.

Tags:recipe
轉錄自http://lancelthebard.blogspot.com/2010/07/blog-post.html#comment-form

材料:
  
蝦     180g
  (大蝦或是蝦仁都可以,只要是無殼的就行)
  熟鹹蛋黃 3個
  蛋     1個
  
  雞粉    1/4茶匙
  料酒    1茶匙
  太白粉   1大匙
  細砂糖    少許


1. 雞蛋的蛋黃、蛋白分開,備用。

2. 蝦仁洗淨,瀝乾水份,用雞粉、料酒和雞蛋白抓勻醃漬約2分鐘。
 (如果使用的是大蝦,請以刀從蝦背劃開,深約至蝦身的1/3處)
 
3. 熟鹹蛋黃輾成泥狀,混入生的雞蛋黃,備用。
 我用的冷凍的熟鹹蛋黃,如果家中只有生鹹蛋,可以放入蒸籠蒸約4分鐘至熟

4. 熱鍋下油,將作法2的蝦裹上份量外的太白粉,半煎半炸
 至表面呈金黃酥脆狀後起鍋瀝乾油脂備用。
 (我不喜歡炸東西,一來花時間二來弄得廚房到處都是油煙,
  但如果不怕麻煩的人可以熱油至150'C把蝦炸約2分鐘)

5. 另熱一鍋,加入2大匙油,轉至小火加入作法3的鹹蛋黃泥和細砂糖
 用鍋鏟不停攪拌至鹹蛋黃泥起泡有香味後倒入蝦球,快速翻炒即可。  
 *可撒下少許蔥花翻炒均勻增加美感。

走不完的長巷 原來也就那麼長
跑不完的操場 原來小成這樣
時間的手 翻雲覆雨了什麼 從我手中奪走了什麼

閉上眼看 十六歲的夕陽 美得像我們一樣
邊走邊唱 天真浪漫勇敢 以為能走到遠方
我們曾相愛 想到就心酸

人潮拍打上岸 一波波歡快的浪
校門口老地方 我是等候堤防
牽你的手 人群裡慢慢走 我們手中藏有全宇宙

閉上眼看 最後那顆夕陽 美得像一個遺憾
輝煌哀傷 青春兵荒馬亂 我們潦草地離散
明明愛呀 卻不懂怎麼辦 讓愛強韌不折斷
為何生命 不准等人成長 就可以修正過往
我曾擁有你 真叫我心酸

讓我愛你 然後把我拋棄 我只要出發 不要目的
我會一直想你 忘記了呼吸 孤獨到底 讓我昏迷
如果恨你 就能不忘記你 所有的面目 我都不抗拒
如果不夠悲傷 就無法飛翔 可沒有夢想 何必遠方
 
我一直都在流浪 可我不曾見過海洋
我以為的遺忘 原來躺在你手上
我努力微笑堅強 寂寞築成一道圍牆
也敵不過夜裡 最溫柔的月光

蝴蝶眨幾次眼睛 才學會飛行
夜空灑滿了星星 但幾顆會落地
我飛行 但你墜落之際
很靠近 還聽見呼吸
對不起 我卻沒捉緊你

你不知道我為什麼離開你
我堅持不能說放任你哭泣
你的淚滴像傾盆大雨 碎了滿地
在心裡清晰

你不知道我為什麼狠下心
盤旋在你看不見的高空
多的是 你不知道的事

Tags:海的這邊
接到會長電話 十萬火急地希望我們過去Whittier Hospital做個採訪
擺下例行會議 跟T.K. 坐上車 飆風到18 miles 外的Whittier Hospital.
(會用miles來記錄事情 屬於「非城市人」的特徵)
在醫院門口迎接我們的 是Debra, 穿著灰色套裝
她熱切等待 今天來的人應該不太多
櫃台旁 先遇見中心健保老闆 遞了名片給他 溼溼軟軟的手 可以讓夏天涼快一點嗎?
Debra小姐在旁邊說著"老闆很低調 能認識他不容易啊"

進了今天Debra女士安排的小會議室 裡頭坐著幾個人
兩位白人(Linda Castellanet, Phyllis Snyder) 兩位華人(Renee Mao) 加上Debra
站著的是會長

會長因為早來所以早走 Debra跟Renee帶著我們去看急診室
說明這一次急診室得獎的事
人很多~ 跟我們Glendora的急診室不太一樣
Glendora的急診室 人少 速度卻慢到一個讓人懷疑裡面今天是不是罷工了?

Debra和Renee熱情留我跟T.K.吃午餐
她們說 要等一位心肺專科的醫生 "曾開心" 會來
曾醫師像風一樣 (風一樣的男子?) 大約65歲 身材不高
一身綠色的醫師服捲進會議室

兩位華人女士很熱情地請他留下來一起吃便當
曾醫生看了一眼港式飲茶的餐盒 說 "你們知道我不吃這的"
呃~

醫生十萬火急帶我們回到急診室
一個華人家庭 爸媽帶著跟平常不太一樣的孩子求診 孩子手掌漲得像顆甜菜根
醫生耐心聽著急診人員用英文說明 再轉告給父母聽 同時安撫孩子
發現孩子講英文也不太懂 說中文他也會問"這是什麼意思?"
醫生事後告訴我 這是一個異常的孩子
他說 在急診室裡 這樣的事太多太多 有著語言障礙的家庭
在醫院裡 多需要別人幫助

醫生陪著我們在會議室裡 聊著 他說著從醫三十年
醫院的黑暗面 醫心醫德和醫療成本放在天平上
當醫生擔任醫院財務的把關者 人命在美國 可不一定值錢

我問他 那該怎麼辦? 他嘆口氣說"on people's mercy"
意思就是 這件事太運氣了遇到一個醫生願意全力搶救 你就有機會

他叨叨說著現在的年輕人 把醫生看成一種高收入職業
和濟世救人已經背道而馳
我看著他的臉 想著 等我有需要的時候他會不會早就退休啦?

聊到最後 醫生帶我們一起往停車場 我問他 要趕著去別的醫院嗎?
他說 對呀 我現在一天要跑三家醫院 以前年輕的時候 一個禮拜28家呢
看他風塵僕僕地離開 彷彿聽見俠客達達的馬蹄聲....

你無聲無息出現 我總是嚇得轉身就跑
害怕你給的傷害 於是我不戰而降 任你宰割
高舉白旗 失去面對你 戰鬥的勇氣
任由你馳騁 在心的曠野上
驅趕我的快樂

太久了 我已經落荒而逃太久

最後才看清楚 原來你不過是個幻影
是我在想像中 創造出來 威脅自己的影子
你手無寸鐵
是我被恐懼驚嚇 才會一路竄逃
以為你是我永遠戰勝不了的敵人

我想反擊 厭倦永無休止 心驚膽跳的日子
不願再讓你成為我的緊箍咒
不願再讓自己 永遠受制於人

(Glinda):
I've heard it said
That people come into our lives for a reason
Bringing something we must learn
And we are led
To those who help us most to grow
If we let them
And we help them in return
Well, I don't know if I believe that's true
But I know I'm who I am today
Because I knew you...

Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you
I have been changed for good

(Elphaba):
It well may be
That we will never meet again
In this lifetime
So let me say before we part
So much of me
Is made of what I learned from you
You'll be with me
Like a handprint on my heart
And now whatever way our stories end
I know you have re-written mine
By being my friend...

Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a skybird
In a distant wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you

(Glinda):
Because I knew you

(Both):
I have been changed for good
(Elphaba):
And just to clear the air
I ask forgiveness
For the things I've done you blame me for

(Glinda):
But then, I guess we know
There's blame to share

(Both):
And none of it seems to matter anymore

(Glinda):
Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood

(Elphaba):
Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a bird in the wood

(Both):
Who can say if I've been
Changed for the better?
I do believe I have been
Changed for the better

(Glinda):
And because I knew you...

(Elphaba):
Because I knew you...

(Both):
Because I knew you...
I have been changed for good...
