GOOD MORNING ALL. It's the first day of SPRING! Yey! After the stormy wind yesterday and hopefully today the storm's gone and out.
At this time of the year I was ready for gardening, cultivating the soil for planting bulbs of dahlias and sunflower seeds. Well that wont happen this year. I will just admire your beautiful gardens and appreciate nature as it is under the bright sunny sun. Besides I'm allergic to pollen so better not inhale what's out there.
Only 4 Celsius outside and 20 C inside our home. After morning blogging, housework is the next best thing to do: laundry,vacuum carpet and floors, clean glass windows with windex, and cooking. I bought 2 pkg of wonton wrapper. OMG! You know how much its cost? $7.99. I remember 2 pkg only worth $4 before. For the stuffng: ground pork, shrimps, egg, onions, cilantro, carrots, celery, ginger, salt and ground black pepper.
My kids love wonton soup so it's worth the cost.
Boullabaise would have been the best soup ever but can't afford that anymore. Seafoods are so very expensive! Just the saffron= one teaspoon is worth $15.
In the news, lobsters, crabs and seafood from Canada are imposed with 25% tariff from China. Whoah! Canada should just sell seafoods locally and adjust the price here. It's the exportation that make the seafood very costly locally. Would you believe that a medium size crab is worth $25/each. Too much! But who knows maybe the Chinese are willing to buy crabs and other seafoods priced double because of the 25% tariff. I know the Chinese they love seafoods: oysters, lobsters, prawns and shrimps, clams, and salmons. Their oyster sauce lee kum khee? Fresh oysters from Canada are the best!
It's more like inflation is making us sick. That's the reason why too many people are sick because of the high cost of living. HYPERTENSIONS! Your blood pressure goes up every time there is bad news.
What to do now? You know what you should do right?
Ciao! Hope you have a nice day waking up to Springtime.
