Sitting in Bars with Cake
It's hard to meet people in a big city, let alone any city. And after living in LA for several years as a single lady, Audrey Shulman turned to baking. But rather than eating her cakes solo over the sink, she brought them to bars, luring guys with a heady dose of butter and wkkk.net in Bars with Cake recounts Audrey's year spent baking, bar-hopping, and offering slices of cake to men in the hope of finding her boyfriend (or, at the very least, a date). With 35 inventive recipes based on her interactions with guys from all walks of life, from a Sticky Maple Kiss Cake to a Bitter Chocolate Dump Cake, this charming book pairs each cake with a short essay and tongue-in-cheek lesson about picking up boys in bars.在自己心中盖一座花园
在去顺化的火车上,我刚举起相机,迎面一个黑瘦的老妇走过来问我:“你是中国人吗?”她说的是汉语。她说隔着几排座看到我的样子,就猜到我应该是中国人,因为越南人无疑不会拍这么普通的车厢,她兴奋地说:“太好了,我已经好久没遇到中国人了,都没机会说中国话。”但若不是她开口,我第一眼也吃不准她是哪里人——她的衣着打扮看上去好像和车厢里的某个越南老妇没多大差别;她问我“去寮国怎么走”,以及她那随身带的标着诸如“西贡”、“永珍”之类地名的地图,使我一度还误以为她来自台湾地区,后来才知道那是她在胡志明市跟华侨学的——她甚至不知道“寮国”在国内叫“老挝”。
