Talkative Mei

上週六，我在搭乘台铁的旅途中，特地品嚐了限量版的焢肉便当。当列车员推着推车来到我的座位时，我毫不犹豫地选择了这款便当。打开便当盒，看到一大块焢肉摆在白饭上，搭配着古早味滷蛋、梅乾菜ヽ花椰菜ヽ高丽菜及酥脆的山药卷。焢肉滷得入味，特别是那肥瘦相间的肉质，口感丰富不油腻。

边吃着美味的台铁便当，边看着火车窗外的风景，真是一趟幸福的铁路之旅啊!

Last Saturday, I had the opportunity to try the limited edition slow-braised pork lunchbox on the Taiwan Railway. As the train crew approached my seat with the trolley, I certainly didn't hesitate to choose this very appealing meal.

It was a good serving of pork, slow-braising, and lay on top of the cooked white rice. Other classic accompaniments in the lunchbox included a marinated egg, dried plums, broccoli, cabbage, and a crispy yam roll. The pork was very well-braised—it had the flavor from its fat and lean meat but was not greasy.

Munching on the delicious Taiwan Railway lunchbox with scenery outside the train window was just about the most wonderful way to enjoy a railroad trip.

Last week, I unexpectedly discovered a new ice cream at FamilyMart, of all places, and it happened to be my favorite pudding flavor. At that time, I was looking for some snacks, casually browsing the freezer, and suddenly saw the packaging of this ice cream with an enticing pudding design on it, which immediately caught my interest. Without hesitation, I bought one and eagerly opened it outside the store. The first bite of the ice cream melted in my mouth, the rich pudding aroma instantly filled my mouth, sweet but not cloying, leaving an endless aftertaste. This discovery has made me look forward even more to the next convenience store shopping adventure.

我妹妹养了六隻猫咪，其中有一隻叫｢布莉｣的猫咪最特别! ｢布莉｣会在有事情发生时， 清楚地叫「妈妈」，而不是随便乱叫。例如，前天晚上，我妹妹正要上床睡觉，听到楼下传来｢布莉｣的叫声，就像小娃娃般的声音在叫着｢妈妈!｣｢妈妈!｣。 一到楼下，就看到老大｢凯蒂｣正准备要欺负老么｢蛋糕｣，我妹妹立马把｢凯蒂｣关进笼子裡，让她先冷静下来自我反省一番。看来，｢布莉｣又成功地平息了一场战争啊!

My sister is a cat lover with six cats. Of these six, there is an extraordinary cat named Bùlì. She appears to be a cat that manages to sense and convey what she needs, more so if something is wrong. It's not just random meows, but quite clearly. She calls out for 'Mom' whenever she senses trouble. For example, last night, my sister was getting ready for bed when she heard Bùlì's recognizable cries from downstairs. Her playful meows had turned into insistent, doll-like screams of 'Mommy! Mommy! ' Then my sister went downstairs and found the oldest cat, Kǎidì, trying to pick on the youngest, Dàngāo. My sister quickly removed Kǎidì from the scene by putting her in her own cage for some time to cool down and reflect over what she had done. Because of Bùlì's presence of mind and lucid expression, a fight was prevented.
