Food from the Orient--- Delicioso!

Don't be shy now. Eat all you can from the sumptuous fares below.

Rice, beef and some unidentified vegetables

Sausage is very popular here.

Eat all the ducks you can.

More sausage! You will never have to borrow or share "sausage." You can have your own :)

Are you a pork lover? Well, if you love it that much, you can have the pig's face. Yum! Yum!

Prefer bigger sausages? Well, help yourself. Big and perhaps, tasty :)

Pumpkins galore!

Look like turnips

I love their carrots.

Squash (I think.)


I think these are smaller sweet peppers.

Pork again 

Tripe...I am not sure from which animal (could be canine :) )

What a pretty piece a pork?

Talk About Awkward Moments

Since my arrival in China on May 3, 2014, I have had many awkward moments. Most days,  I have to sign, point, dramatize or role play in an effort to communicate my requests to the natives. In fact, one day, I had to pretend to be a chicken in order to guarantee the purchase of authentic poultry and not canine products or by-products thereof.   If you have read my previous blogs, you can easily conjure the design of the Chinese restrooms in the public schools. The toilets are at ground level and there are no doors  to privatize the stalls.  One day, I was about to have a 'private' moment, when two female Chinese students decided to form a queue directly in front of me. I tried to shoo them away, but they completely misinterpreted my gesture. They thought I was signing hello! Of course, I kept waving and saying "Go up deh suh man!" and they continued to respond by waving and greeting me with hellos. View of most public restrooms in China  Rec...

How I Survived China

What did I do when the shop attendant moistened his fingertips with saliva just before counting out my change? I ordered more items until di money done ! What did I do when he did the same thing before handing me a bag in which to place the items? I declined his offer, huddled everything in my hand, vowed to have the exact change next time and got myself a durable shopping bag right after. What  did I do after I walked five minutes before finding the supermarket's 'entrance,' and the security guard indicated that I was entering through the exit (She pointed to the EXIT sign.) and then asked me to retrace my steps? I pretended the Chinese characters above the English 'EXIT' confused me, then I proceeded inside. What did I do when the lady cashed my groceries and indicated (in Chinese) that I needed to pay for a 'scandal' ( polythene bag) that I thought would have been complimentary? ( At this point, I had only 5RMB to get a taxi h...

Almost Bald

My Mandarin is still poor, but I am surviving quite well. I have stopped travelling around with my address written on a piece of paper. I just take the taxis and point all the way to my destination.  Today, I even got a huge melon at a discounted price. Once the lady showed me the cost, I elevated my hand to indicate that it was too high. Immediately, she reduced the original figure by three Yuan, and I paid what would amount to JMD$178. Moreover, my translation app has been very helpful. Recently, I went to the hairdresser, and I was able to have a meaningful conversation with her for about 10 minutes. However, the minute she shaved away a considerable part of my hairline, my battery died and so did the exchange. Of course, she marvelled at my "beautiful" makeover, while I stared in the mirror, aghast at my more rotund forehead. I tried to indicate how she could have applied a "fix," but I eventually gave up my wild and infuriated gesticulations before ...
