五年愉快的小學生涯-在月華街

 七歲搬到官塘月華街, 考入呢間距離屋企只有幾十步的學校(↓)做二年級插班生, 因此兩個小弟都可以順利入讀, 省卻爸媽不少精神同金錢, 每年只需買校簿, 書本的話, 就大嗰個pass畀細嗰個, 做大既唔得畫花啲書本, 留番畀細既下年用, 要畫就用鉛筆輕輕咁畫, 第時擦番.

 學校每級有4班, AB班返上午, CD班下午, 全級按成績排,考第1至45名下年就升讀A班, 餘此類推, 直至小五, 5A班會升番6A, 呢兩年每班各自有中,英,數老師,專門應付升中試, 上晝上完堂, 返屋企食過午飯, 下晝又要番學校補課, 好彩我住得近咋, 通常我嗰班會用操場行到尾嗰間小小音樂室, 夏天真係又悶又熱, 不過老師同同學門既汗水都冇白流架, 我地升中大都派到好好既中學, 有次弟弟放小息到操場玩, 佢同埋佢啲同學仔走到音樂室門口, 佢指住我話呢個係佢家姐, 佢個同學仔又指住另一個話呢個係佢亞哥, 又有一次弟弟放小息响操場企响欄河邊, 佢見我响屋企個騎樓道, 我哋屋企騎樓係對到正學校操場(↓)嘅, 猛向我揮手, 真係可愛

又想講吓呢三位同我地一齊努力左兩年既中,英,數老師(↓), 教數學呢位朱先生, 佢除左面頰有少少, 真係好少, 唔留意都見唔到既凹凸之外, 高大威猛, 玉樹臨風, 佢朝朝揸車返學, 好瀟灑咁掟個彎將架車泊响學校正門則面, 記得佢係教我哋嗰兩年內結婚既, 教我哋國文既係位女老師-李先生, 佢講話有少少唔正, 但係佢既中文修養好好, 佢個女同我哋同年歲, 所以覺得佢好似媽媽咁, 好慈祥同親切. 英文科老師係麥SIR, 佢有3個細路, 一級一級咁, 佢教得我哋啲英文好好, 中文小學既英文科在公開試能取得好既成績, 咪就係最好既証明囉, 佢耐不時會响佢課堂上唱”MY WAY”…成首唱晒架, 仲好迷醉咁, 當時係佢唱我咪聽囉, 依家不知不覺已走到左佢嗰陣既年紀, 聽番呢首歌同細味佢既歌詞, 真係太有意思喇.
↓ 左至右: 英文科麥SIR, 中文科女老師李先生, 數學科朱先生, 6A班同學


每星期有一堂週會, 可座入禮拜堂(↓)聽校長在台上訓話, 可能坐得太舒服掛, 通常我都係進入咗夢鄉既, 平時係响操場集合排隊, 由范主任講幾句先至行好多層樓梯級上班房咁, 我成日响後面裝范主住既眼鏡片, 點解會上下兩節咁得意既, 嗰時都唔識得呢啲係有埋老花既近視鏡片, 范主任有個姪女同我同級, 佢既家族個名第二個字係用”一”, 我出嚟社會做事, 第一份銀行工被派到嗰間分行, 有位女同事個名第二個字又係”一”, 傾談之下, 原來我嗰位同級同學正係佢個細細妹, 而范主任嗰時已經退左休嘞.

我的黃金歲月-在裕民坊

從7歲起搬到官塘月華街居住，直至20歲才搬走。
人生最黃金的歲月，就在官塘的大街小巷悄悄地溜走了。
時光消逝，但曾經經歷過的，卻深深印在腦海裡。

.

.

知道裕民坊那遍地方，與及隱藏在內要有心地慢慢地領會才滲透出來舊區獨有的豐富人情味，都要被香港政府用一個美麗的藉口，將他一併連根拔起。
頓時無數的回憶，美好的、夾雜著傷感的，湧上心頭…
試問人的情感豈會只像電腦般撳一個delete制或索性重新format過部電腦那麼簡單就可以刪除掉嗎?
小時候, 可能係大女又文靜(事實係唔多講野而弟弟們還小)既關係, 爸爸總喜歡帶住我周圍去,食過晚飯, 爸爸好多時都會帶我到裕民坊巴士總站, 那時嗰處仲係 一塊空地, 有人打功夫, 賣鐵打藥, 爸爸會買個雪梨畀我食, 我唔係鍾意食雪梨, 而係好恨睇佢超快摩打手批雪梨皮既表演

在裕民坊巴士總站, 舊樓樓梯腳有位亞伯收錢幫人寫信, 我小時候陪媽媽去幫櫬佢, 難道媽媽要講啲秘密野唔比老豆知(?), 佢寫完封信都會代寄埋架

裕民坊巴士總站舊樓有擋褶骨鋪, 十零歲女 , 冇錢又要扮靚, 就要自己動手做衫, 响報紙擋有一包包既紙樣賣, 封面有個靚女著住嗰款衫裙既照片, 內裡紙樣畫左大中細碼, 照住佢嚟裁剪, 剪好啲布料, 要去幫櫬褶骨, 車好件衫裙, 又要去果道配button

有次瞓到朦朦鬆鬆, 被爸爸拍醒問我去唔去銀都戲院睇戲, 佢响銀行做, 成日都有贈券, 同愛國電影啲贈券, 愛國電影會响銀都戲院放映, 有時禮拜日佢又會帶我地一家大細去銀都睇早場, 睇鮑起靜,王葆真啲電影, 爸爸話嗰時鮑起靜好靚, 我覺得依家都係, 仲好親切添, 可能係有加咗啲美好童年回憶既因素在內掛

銀都戲院隔離有間書局, 地面賣文具, 有幾層樓高, 好似叫(官塘書局?), 約人去銀都睇戲, 就約响書局等, 一路睇住書嚟等, 唔覺唔覺都睇左好多書喇, 多謝老闆呀, 後來佢冇做, 轉左手變成(新華書局?) 銀都戲院正面過條紅綠燈有一大片空地, 好多小販, 買平價衫褲, 小飾物等

裕民坊同時有過兩間國貨公司, 中匯同珠江, 中匯啲價錢平啲, 爸爸會帶我地去中匯多, 欣賞下工藝品, 齋睇玩具, 响呢道就可以消磨一個晚上, 最後佢都會買一包包成橙形既軟糖畀我地三姊弟, 因可以一塊塊分嚟食, 大大(大元?)百貨係後來先至有咋, 有家庭用品, 有衣服呀牛仔褲賣, 執笠清貨果時太多人嘞, 太迫入唔到去執平貨添

準姑丈(嗰時佢係呢個身份)有次請我地三姊弟去華都餐廳食西餐, 嗰道黑嗎嗎, 懒有情調咁, 食正式既西餐, 仲係一人食晒一份, 唔洗幾個人分, 真係生平第一次, 爸爸曾經帶過我地去協和街皇上皇食扖餐 只有一碟野有啲扒咁, 幾笑料吓

我地三姊弟雖然年紀細細就識得就住大人個荷包, 我已識睇價錢, 點個7文幾既扒餐, 細弟太細, 照跟我, 輪到大弟, 佢瞪大對眼, 左手义腰, 右手指住我地兩個:”你地好唔啱, 叫啲75文咁貴既, 我要 12文呢個”跟住佢手指指住果個係全餐嚟架, 姑姊準姑丈咁不住被佢天真可愛既舉動笑了出來, 馬上話:”好,好,我地就點呢幾個”嘩, 好其待呀,先嚟麵包, 小碟裝住一啲卷起似小圓筒有坑紋既牛油, 面上仲洒左啲糖粒,細個時都諗左好耐係點整, (依家知嘞,牛油咁硬, 係要用有一排鋸齒既刀响牛油面道刮出一塊塊畀你, 未成小圓筒狀囉), 跟住嚟主菜, 然後甜品, 嘩, 用一個小小既高腳杯裝住, 用一個小匙更筆嚟食, 當然, 大弟果個全餐就多好多碟野, 主菜之前仲有頭盆, 主菜之後又有野飲咁啦, 佢一路食都唔察覺佢多過我地好多碟, 一踏進屋企門口就即刻同爸媽告狀, 話我同二弟食啲75文咁貴既餐, 被爸媽點醒, 原來佢先係食最貴既餐, 以後我同二弟成日以此為笑柄嚟取笑佢

及後大啲就最鍾意上華都餐廳閣樓, 可以待上整個晚上, 幾個女仔傾吓少女心事, 同啲男朋友約會吓咁啦

華都餐廳隔離枝記鞋店,我同佢地個女係小學同班同學嚟架, 媽咪同我都係著4號鞋, 除左去中環萬宜大廈果間山打可以買得到鞋之外, 就要响枝記訂鞋架嘞

(隱約記得好似有個廣告: 皮鞋最靚係山打,山打最靚係皮鞋)

真係…真係太多喇…記得起咁多就寫住咁多先啦相片攝於 2011/2/27   5:55pm-6:20pm : -

這幾篇是重發的, 當初開blog 原意是叫他代我記下一些食譜

番茄燴牛肋條

近來發現這個簡易快速煮法，味道亦較豐富有層次。
這個世界，不是一分耕耘一分收穫的啊，又一例証!
這個已是四人份:-
(1)牛肋條 ( 2)金寶牌羅宋湯~請發廣告費~(3)月桂葉bay leaves 2片


將牛肋條剪去肥膏及出水、月桂葉、羅宋湯、1/3罐水放進壓力煲。
若有剩餘的洋蔥紅蘿蔔，亦可切件放入。
順手拈來便可，不加亦已很好味哩。凡事不用太刻意啊!

轉細火後燜 25分鐘，禮成。
燜好後才將太長條的一開二，之後亦可加入一罐紅腰豆。



原先的post:-
番茄燴牛肋條 5人份
牛肋條用豉油糖醃一陣
番茄磚1/3盒 (J$12 shop), 用一小碗熱水開溶
紅蘿蔔1條, 切成麻雀size
月桂葉 (bay leaves) 2片, 剪成條狀會出味d(百記$11有50塊)
番茄 2大個, 用刀响底戒十字,浸熱水,去皮
洋葱1個, 求其切開8份啦, 反正都會同番茄煮到溶埋一pad

以上放晒落壓力煲, 唔洗加水,轉細火後煮25分鐘,
減壓後開蓋, 長條嗰啲就一開二, 加一罐紅腰豆落去煮熱就完美嘞
