芋頭酥 (Yam Flaky Mooncake)

昨天是第一次到家里去为病人送耶稣圣体。


孩子也和我们一起体验这有意义的工作。第一个婆婆已经老得牙都掉光了。


说话含糊不清但是精神还算不差。有个儿子相伴是她认为最安慰和光荣的事。我想主必非常降福这不离不弃的孝顺儿子。


第二个是独居的妇女。双脚不灵活是她的困扰。虽然如此她还是把家里整理得干干净净。


第三个是一个老伯伯。有个老伴相随。另一半却是个佛教徒。因为工作发生意外导致没有了双脚的他不能再上教堂。但是坚固的信德没有让他放弃宗教和领受神恩。天主必当与他同在。


这些个案都让我深深体验到自己的幸福。每天早上能睁开双眼就是神赐给我的奇迹。


即便是平常到不能的大小解,喝水,呼吸都是上天的眷顾。


时时感恩,时时回馈是我们能做的。


回到家真的累到不能自己,倒头大睡是唯一能做的。


我想,虽然累但是值得的。


但愿有天我老得不能在为别人服务时,同样也有关心我的兄弟姊妹来探望我,安慰我,爱护我,听我诉说。


今早起来把原本昨天要做的芋头酥解决了。


看见纹路明显的外皮我只想说,感谢主给我一双有用的手!

  18. Hi Jane,

    u mentioned that:
    将包好的面团稍微压下,擀成椭圆形薄片,卷起像瑞士卷般,收口朝下,休面10分钟。
    将休息好的面团再次擀成长形后翻面,卷起,休面20分钟。

    meaning first roll as swiss roll, rest 10 mins, then roll out? or flatten it? then roll in again?

    zillion thanks :-)
