Why does it have to be salty?

   Posted by: michy   in Rumblings

I love to eat basically to know how a food tastes like. You could say that it is part of my learning experience to be a better cook. One of the recipes that I am very interested in is lumpiang shanghai (meat roll) and I have tasted a lot of good tasting lumpia. But I also had some bad tasting ones. Like the one that I am having now. The wrapper is crispy, you can smell the meat but it tastes salty!  Too bad… Sometimes I wonder why some people can’t get the fact that salt is there to add or enhance the natural flavor of the food, not to over power the taste. Tsk, tsk, tsk…

what if?

A friend approached me to tell me that she likes someone.  Funny, but you know how girls are.  They would usually talk about the person they like.  Maybe I’m the only one who doesn’t have the guts to tell other people that I like someone.  But I’m wondering what if one day, because I don’t like talking about the person I like or couldn’t even dare say the name of the person I like, someone comes up to me to tell me that they like the person I like too?  Do I have the right to get mad?  I guess not, in the first place, that person didn’t know that I liked the guy and then, I am not in a relationship with the guy so I guess that gave me no right to be mad.  However, how should one react if one is placed in that situation?  What if I liked the person that she likes too and she told me about it?  Should I just keep quiet or should I say I like him too?  Hmmm…
