See what I found at the market today:
Fresh dumplings! (This is getting ridiculous. The English Language is grossly insufficient to describe foods). This ‘dumpling’, is known in Chinese as Zong Zi. There are n number of foods in the chinese cuisine that are called ‘dumplings’ in English – everything from jiaozi, wantan to siu mai are called dumplings. Grr.
The lady who sold it to me said she made it fresh. And so I bought the last 2 zong zi (at 7.30 a.m., it was the last 2). And it was a good brekky, I’d say, with me being starved of my dim sum (ah, more ‘dumplings’ here) and all.
And to those who went to market with me today:
Black* Coffee! Get your Black* Coffee here today! Certified organic, certified fair trade! This bag of coffee was roasted just yesterday! Certified organic, certified fair trade! Certified organic, certified fair trade! Come and get your Black* Coffee! Certified organic, certified fair trade!!!
If you didn’t go to the market, you can still understand this joke: just say the above quote very quickly, repeat it a hundred times over. In the rain.
And to those who know me (and my quirky beliefs), you know what I think about Fair Trade coffee and Sweat Free clothes
What do you think about Fair Trade coffee?
hmm, that Fair Trade coffe actually destroys the jobs that the coffee market creates?
[...] And so, that’s the reason why he’s been making really lacklustre blog articles and not many updates in between. [...]
