Late Night Snack/宵夜
今晚以剩菜剩飯簡單解決一餐,於是早就處心積慮計劃好要到外面路口買鹽酥雞當宵夜!嘿嘿~
下禮拜要回來的人,滴下來的口水擦一擦啊~~~
Had a simple supper (leftover) this evening, Tammy had planned for a late night snack - Yummy *Taiwanese fried chicken! haha~
Hey, wipe up your mouth water! The one who will be coming back @ next week~~
*Taiwanese fried chicken : deep-fried chicken seasoned with pepper & salt. Usually not only chicken, people buy other ingredients such as tofu, squid, tempura etc. as well.

例行公事
每年大年初一的例行公事:一大早和家族親戚們去掃墓,通常得忙到中午過後,再帶著咕嚕咕嚕叫的肚子,到夏林路固定常跑的那幾家小吃攤,簡單解決一餐。
今年選擇好一陣子沒光顧的『全生小食店』
雖然全生的美味遠近馳名,但歪嘴雞泰咪一直以來都覺得,精心熬煮的可口肉燥配上 "陳倉米",實在可惜了點..... 唉..... U_U

New Year's Gift for myself:OST - BENJAMIN BUTTON
(碎碎唸:怎麼感覺身邊總是大小事一個接一個來?? 自年假開始,直到大年初一晚上的現在.... 喔,不,該說初二了呢,才稍有空閒整理一下這幾天的見聞和大伙分享.....)
好了,嘀咕完了,回到正題唄!
話說除夕前一天,妮可老師託泰咪去買要給小小外甥 ─ 小恩看的幼教 DVD,於是泰咪便趕在除夕下午多數店家打烊前,去了趟久違好幾個月的唱片行
(認真逛遍幾乎整家店,真過癮啊~~ ^^)
泰咪在每次進唱片行必看的電影原聲帶區意外發現,2/13 才會在台上映的【班傑明的奇幻旅程】,台壓版原聲帶竟然已經早一步上架了耶!!!
更令人驚喜的是,原聲帶為 2CD 裝!
CD1 是原創配樂、CD2 則選錄了由 Louis Armstrong、The Platters 等傳奇藝人與樂手用樂聲所塑造的紐奧良爵士風華。
在唱片愈賣愈少、售價節節攀升的時代,不算大眾市場的電影原聲帶還能以「兩張CD一張價」的策略推出,實在是佛心來的,這簡直是天意要泰咪買給自己的新年禮物嘛!!! XDD
預祝被提名 13 個獎項的班傑明,能在 2/22 傍晚 (台北時間 2/23 早上) 舉行的奧斯卡大放異彩囉!

When iPod Meets iTunes
Wednesday, January 21, 2009
小黃 nano 初來乍到
Tuesday, January 20, 2009
新年新 "失" 望.....
Bonus Gift/意外收穫
放棄黃色小屋會員招待會最後一天享有 iPod 系列商品打 92 折的機會,昨晚去新天地幫泰咪妹買 nano (因為週年慶換來的 $1000 禮券不快花掉,月底就要到期啦!)
新光三越最近舉辦的刷特定幾家信用卡滿 3000 送 300 活動,自 1/16 起已經過了好幾天,結帳時法X客店員還特地打電話去贈品處幫我們問禮券送完了沒,得到的答案是剩下不多!(幸好仍然有換到,呼~)
重點來了,當泰咪掏出消費券準備付帳時,店員說拿消費券購買 iPod,還額外贈送 ELECOM 巧克力豆耳機一副!(印象中店頭售價好像是
↑之前從沒注意原來這組還有附集線器 & 四種 size 的耳套,真不錯耶!
哇~加一加當場就比去黃色小屋買划算多啦! LUCKY~ ^_^y
耳機殺手泰咪妹1号前陣子才又殺了一副同款耳機,這意外收穫剛好讓她省下一筆,雖然上次去 yodobashi 試聽過 audio-technika 去年 11 月剛出的 *macaron (↓↓)之後她就開始移情別戀.....
(*macaron:其實真正的商品名稱叫 POTTERY,原廠的設計說明是『陶器質感 & 調性的表現』,但因為愛吃鬼泰咪三姊妹覺得它長得很法國蛋白餅,便無視原廠命名,直接叫它 macaron 啦~ XD)
法X客自家的活動,每張消費券贈送一張 $50 文化商品抵用券。但台南專櫃沒賣書、CD & DVD 那類 "文化" 品,所以能抵科技類週邊商品。BUT, 一次只限用一張.....
.

觀眾:(敲碗) 講了那麼多,啊 nano 咧?叫主角登場啊!
泰咪:ㄜ... 店家沒庫存,得從別的點調貨,請各位看倌再耐心等個幾天囉~

Replacement/替代方案
8 吋千層蛋糕 (看起來其實大概只有 10 層左右吧),切成 12 份,平均每塊約 $38
整體口味不差,雖沒特別令人驚艷,層數也比一般千層少了至少一半,但都還在泰咪的可接受範圍內
(某人嫌它草莓帶有土味,但泰咪吃到的那幾口都沒這問題,所以不列入扣分項目~ XD)
景氣如此差的年代,有這種兼顧美味和價位的甜點就夠了,還吃什麼一片 $120 起跳且一點都不特別好吃的『深藍』啊!!!

辦正事 (Osaka, Winter 2008 -2)
第二天,先去辦泰咪媽交代的事。
騎著腳踏車出門,泰咪妹2号因為不想手動打氣打得氣喘吁吁,於是騎到自転車店想用50隻小羊換自動幫浦的快速服務。
結果..... 店還沒開啦~~~
吃力地騎著她幾乎沒風的小黃繼續尋找下一家車店,但..... 找到的這家賣釣魚用具兼修補自転車的小雜貨店只有手動打氣筒啊。
繞了一大圈,依舊得由泰咪使盡空肚子裡僅剩的餘力,灌飽兩台腳踏車...... 早知如此,出門前跟公寓管理員借來用不就好了咩~ XDD
↑ 低於 10 度的氣溫下,打氣打到滿身汗!
↑ 經過一番 "激烈運動",肚子更餓了,還是先去吃個 brunch 吧
↑ 右下角那杯是特別的黑芝麻豆乳 Latte (真的 Latte,不是只有黑芝麻豆漿哦!),融合各種香味不衝突,嗯~~不錯呢!
↑ 黑糖貝果夾抹茶與白巧克力醬,加上香脆的核桃,這個讚!
↑ 泰咪妹喜歡的義大利麵口味,培根洋芋
這道屬午餐菜單,十一點前進場點餐的我們硬生生的被拒絕 (不是啦,是委婉告知啦~),只好先吃貝果,等時間到了再去加點這盤。

So It Began My Winter Vacation (Osaka, Winter 2008 -1)
免費的機票、免費的住宿 (but 食 x 3人...),大阪當然是泰咪年底消耗剩餘特休的最佳去處囉!
沒任何特別計劃,吃吃喝喝放大假就是啦~
↑ "愛歹丸" 的柿子人在桃園機場出境大廳裡埋頭猛上網哩!
一早出門,轉眼已中午,離登機也還有一段時間,先拿信用卡紅利點數去換點吃的好了~
↑ 在這盤之前已先嗑掉一碗統一鮮蝦麵。
?? VIP lounge 吃泡麵 ?? 嗯.... 摩爾果然沒以前去過的華航貴賓室來得好
↑ 到大阪的第一頓晚餐,看起來很紅但其實不太辣的麻辣鴛鴦鍋
(本來泰咪想吃燒肉,但泰咪妹說想吃鍋。Well, 民宿主人比較大,so.....)
↑ 買個布丁回家享用吧!綠色抹茶、紅色草莓、棕色是香蕉 + 焦糖

The Curious Case Of BENJAMIN BUTTON/班傑明的奇幻旅程
仔細看,上面那兩張海報有什麼不同?(點海報可看大圖)
別告訴泰咪一張是布萊德彼特、一張是凱特布蘭琪吔!這泰咪自己也看得出來..... =_="
找到了嗎?是滴,人名和電影標題的字體,一張是正的、一張是反的!
為呼應影片男主角倒著走的一生,於是把字體改成反的,泰咪覺得這創意實在太讚了啊!!
【班傑明的奇幻旅程】已先後獲得金球獎、全美影評人協會等各大團體之最佳影片、導演、男女主角、改編劇本、配樂....等獎項之提名,且被視為今年奧斯卡的大熱門。目前在 IMDb 之網友評分高達不得了的 8.6 顆星 (滿分 10 顆),在資料庫中站上總排名第 64 位!
此片在美國已於聖誕節當天上映,泰咪已經期待它多時,但台灣竟然得等到 2/13 才看得到.....
(迷之聲:怎麼還那麼久啊~~過了聖誕節過了元旦過了春節,甚至連元宵節都過了,2/13 是哪門子鬼檔期啊??)
劇情大綱:
【班傑明的奇幻旅程】改編自奇幻小說家史考特費茲傑羅寫於1920年代的奇想短篇小說,他的靈感來自馬克吐溫的一句話:「如果我們能夠出生的時候八十歲,逐漸接近十八歲,人生一定更美好。」
故事敘述一個一出生就八十歲的嬰兒班傑明(布萊德彼特飾),他一出生母親就難產死亡,父親將他丟棄在養老院門口,命不該絕的他在養老院中渡過了「童年」,他在這裡遇見了這一生的摯愛、六歲的黛西,雖然稱得上兩小無猜,但是兩人外貌卻是天差地遠,長大後兩人有各自的發展,黛西成為舞蹈家,而班傑明則漂泊在海上,甚至參加了戰爭,最後命運安排兩人在生命中最美好的時段相遇,只是被命運捉弄的班傑明,能否與黛西一起走完人生的旅程,成為他心中最大的牽掛。
Look at the above posters closer, can you tell the differences? (Click images to enlarge)
Don't say one is Brad Pitt, another one is Cate Blanchett. Tammy can see it myself.... =_="
Yes, you're right. It's film title & character names. The letters on Brad Pitt one is reversed!
In order to respond to the main character, Benjamin's backward life, the letters are designed to shown inversely. Tammy thinks this idea is very brilliant, I like it!
"The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button" has been nominated by Golden Globes & other awards in some main categories, such as Best film, director, leading or supporting roles, screenplay, and original score etc., and is expected one of the hit film of this year's Oscar. It currently has incredible 8.6 out of 10 stars on IMDb's user rating, stands as high as No.64 of all time films in the database!
It's been released on Christmas Day in the US. Tammy had been expected this movie for long time, but Taiwan's audience can't see it earlier than 13 Feb. (Well, keep counting down the days is all I can do....)
Story :
"I was born under unusual circumstances."
And so begins “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,” adapted from the 1920s story by F. Scott Fitzgerald about a man who is born in his eighties and ages backwards. A man, like any of us, unable to stop time. We follow his story set in New Orleans from the end of World War I in 1918, into the 21st century, following his journey that is as unusual as any man’s life can be. Directed by David Fincher, “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” is a time traveler’s tale of the people and places he bumps into along the way, the loves he loses and finds, the joys of life and the sadness of death, and what lasts beyond time.
