Steam boat Holiday

4/7是美国的假日，我和Steve在家里享受麻辣火鍋…哈哈！是用电飯鍋當火鍋啦！我们没有火鍋，就免強拿一个充＇鍋＇了… 这电飯鍋还是第一天＇开張＇呢，却要身兼二职，真的是辛苦它了！麻辣醬是在某一华人店买的，我虽能吃辣，但还是觉得这麻辣湯非常辣， Steve反而不认為。我想他應该适合住在亞洲… 你看，他拿筷子也蛮有姿勢的…

當晚上无所事事，打开电視时，几台正扩播各地的現场節目…啊…是慶祝国慶日。另一台是St. Louis (我们住的地区) 的庆祝，哗…很漂亮的煙花，燃放的時间似乎有半个小时 (煙花是很貴的…不过美国是个富国) 。嗯…為什么我们没有去現场觀看，却很无聊的呆在家？

July 4th is a holiday in the US, Steve and I cooked hot & spicy ‘steam boat’ at home…haha! We used a rice cooker as the ‘steam boat’! That was because we don’t have a ‘steam boat’ yet… This was the first day we used the rice cooker, but we also needed it to cook rice -- really hard for it! The hot & spicy paste was from a Chinese store here, I felt it was too spicy, even though I can stand spicy food, but Steve didn’t think it was spicy at all. I think he is suitable to live in an Asia country… You see, he can use chopsticks so well…

We had nothing to do that night, so we turned on the TV and it had live events on a few channels… Ah…it was Independence Day celebrations. Another channel had the live celebration in St. Louis (our city), wow… what wonderful fireworks and I think it took about half an hour (fireworks are expensive…but the US is a rich country). Em…why were we bored sitting at home instead of at the celebration?
