Creamy Duck Rillette
The other night during my thrill-less routine of midnight internet-surfing, I came across an article about the mysterious effect of mind has on physical wellness. You know, happy people healthy life kind of thing. (By the way Hello, my name is Mandy and I'm a hypochondriac.

Doomsday Roasted Eggplants
(简体)（繁體) On Nov 28th at exactly 7:20pm, I got fed up. I've had my 5th servings of chronic-crashing on my chrome in 1 day and my whipped iTune seemed to be super-unnaturally allergic to my iPad because it decided to kill itself everytime at the sync of it. So in the attempt to steer my PC into the shinning new-era and deliver it to the promised land of salvation, I upgraded it to - Windows 8 (plug your best Angel music here).

Wontons for Him
(简体)（繁體) There are about a hundred activities that are on my list of things to AVOID at ALL COST in Beijing. Taking a cab is one of them. I'm from New York, the international training-hub for cab-EQ and I thought I graduated smoothly with only one slip that caught me off-guard somewhere on Christopher Street. So to say that I have NO tolerance for supposedly my favorite transportation in the world, is saying a lot. If you think New York cab's got attitude, how about multiplying that by 10 folds then add these to top the cake: a) The car is built to be as safe as a tin can. b) Driver tells you that it's his second day on the job so that he's completely CLUELESS on the directions OR how to keep you alive for that matter. c) A thick stench of body odor permeating throughout and you realized only a short stub of screw is left where the window control used to be. d) It's 104 degrees outside but the AC doesn't work (they never do) PLUS the window STILL doesn't open and YES of course

他的雲吞
(ENGLISH) 在北京，我的“不惜代價也要避免的活動”的名單大概有100多個。坐計程車就是其中一個。照理說從紐約 - 國際性乘坐計程車 EQ 訓練營 - 畢業后來的人，應付幾台小鐵皮應該綽綽有餘。所以當我說我對這個我最愛的交通工具完全沒有忍耐力的時候，事有大條。如果你覺得紐約計程車態度有問題，那麽就在其錦上添這幾朵美花：a) 這裡計程車的“漢草”大概跟沙丁魚罐頭差不多安全。b) 司機跟你說這是他第二天上班，所以他對方向理所當然的零概念，包括怎麽讓你活著下車。c) 一股不知“從何”漂來令人窒息的氣味蔓延在空氣裏，然後你發現原本應該是窗戶開關的位置只剩下
