Reflection:
曾子先說明養生菜茶的烹調方式、營養價值及此菜式的源頭。她的故鄉是汕尾，每逢過年或喜慶日子，都會煮菜茶招待貴賓。烹調方式：先把7種蔬菜仔細切碎，莖和菜要分開煮，莖較硬要煮耐些，菜含水份較快熟，然後再加上粉絲，最後加上先炒好的豬肉片和蝦米，素食者可不加。一碗菜茶放材料順序：大半碗炒好的菜，加上花生、芝麻和炒米，最後放湯。曾子預先準備煲了兩小時的足料蓮藕湯，湯料包括蓮藕、豬展、蠔豉、乾曬魷魚、冬菇和蜜棗；素食者可放芝麻湯，其實是傳統雷茶。過程中，曾子說到要特意去到東涌才買到炒米，un說她媽媽有賣自家製炒米，原來也是汕尾人，即時致電讓兩位母親聊天，即使我們都聽不明白，但也感覺到很多歡樂。「聽到你媽媽用鄉下話跟鄉里對話，不知道為什麼很感動。」Frieda說。是的，曾子往年都會回鄉探親，每次食飯都是大圓枱，熱鬧非凡。對她來說，這樣面對面的交流，一起動手煮菜，分享美食的過程中，是難得可貴的美好時光。在構思這20 DAYS LIVE時，要邀請guest artist時，心裡決定了首兩位便是我的父母。最大的願望是透過這個Porject，把身邊的人連結起來，在當下面對面的相處，分享那種無以名狀的體驗，包括對某些情景的觀察、突如其來的感動、摸不著頭腦的荒謬、對某些物件或行動的聯想、對話或反應中的心有靈犀等。這一切，在現場才能發生，當下的共感將為日後留下深刻的回憶。
