Cooking for the first time


第一次做菜Cooking for the first time

第一次， 拿鍋鏟，邊看食譜邊做菜。

First time holding a spatula, reading the recipe and cooking at the same time.

不知道， 怎麼做，照著食譜慢慢來。

I do not know how to prepare the food, so I follow the recipe step-by-step.

五公克， 有多少？ 去拿秤子秤一秤。

How much is 5 grams?  Go and get the scale to measure.

十西西， 有多少？ 去拿量杯量一量。

How much is 10 cc?  Go and get the measuring cup to measure.

咦？ 什麼怪味道？ 趕快看一看。

Huh?  What is that weird smell?  Quickly take a look.

哎呀，不得了，燒焦了！

Ahh that is no good, it is burnt!

I have a dream


做了一個夢 I have a dream

做了一個夢，我生病了，

I had a dream; I was sick.

身體多麼虛弱又無力。

My body was weak and incapable.

維他命、體溫計和冰水袋，全都趕來照顧我。

Vitamins, thermometer, and the ice bag all came to take care of me.

還有一杯熱開水，也趕來提醒：

「千萬別忘記，把我喝下去！ 」

A cup of boiling water also came to remind me to not forget to drink.
