Summer Cold

I think it’s just because of this season, but I’m sick …! I have headache, fever, my whole body feels so heavy….. but I haven’t taken medicine yet. I try not to take medicine until I’m really disparate, and I think I’m not quite there yet at this point. I just eat well and sleep well until I feel ok 🙂

Normally people tend to want to eat their countries’ food when they are sick. In my case it is udon noodle soup. My mum used to make tamago-toji udon (udon noodle soup with egg) and that’s what I feel like eating now. (although it may be too hot to eat in this hot day :p )

To me, I think that you should eat non-spicy food when you are sick, because sometimes throat is very sensitive. But, some Indonesian people I know eat spicy noodle soup, or porridge with cut chili. (#0#) Well I guess it’s the culture difference.

By the way, some sales person knocked my house door the other day. I opened the door, and the first word the guy said to me was “ni hao ma” (“hello” in Chinise?) I was really upset to hear that because I am not Chinese. (*_*) No offense, but how come some Western people think that all Asian looking people are from China?

Anyway,

I made udon-bake the other night and I liked it. It’s just similar to pasta bake, really. I just used kishimen (a kind of udon noodle, flat and wide.) instead of pasta. 🙂

Because of the shape of Kishimen , it was actually like lasagna.
