Today we went to Golden gap bridge to catch some crabs and fish.
It's really wendy and cold there. Thanks for Calvin's coat that I can stand there without shaking.
We use professional way to catch crab. We put fish in the middle cage of big net. And tied it beside the pier.We caught almost 15 crabs. And several fishes.It funny because one of our fishing rod caught two fishes at sometime. But they were giving birth. Calvin said it's fish's mother intuition. Because she had been caught so she given birth as soon as possible.I think she is great and we let all small fishes go back. That's first time that I saw a fish giving birth and small fish come out directly(like human being or whale). What happen about fishing? I didn't catch any fish at all but I stack all the time. Jane caught many,she was fish queen today.ha ha....
Today's Sunset at golden gap bridge was so beautiful. Although it was cold and windy ,But it was worthy. We steam crabs and fish. It tasted really fresh and good. I like it. Hope I can do that again.............
Today is a United State's holiday. Independents day.
We went to Kevin's house for B.B.Q..I went there at noon and we started cooking rice noodle.
I help Kevin for cutting cooking materials. It's a basic job but I need to learn and practice a lot.
Kevin added something like sauce and made it tasted different.He had so many secret recipe and thing that I needed learn form him are too many.
After that we started to preheat the BBQ stove. Kevin show me how to use charcoal and how to fire up. It's very interesting because they put a smaller , round stove in the middle of BBQ stove.
And under it,Kevin put many paper to helping fire up. It's look like chimney effect and fire up in a short time. Today happened a lots of thing that made me really understand what is America lifestyle. Not only BBQ but for many other stuff.I really enjoy it. But Angus was so nice that he said thank you for your hard working today,I feel happy.I think always appreciate others work is an important thing.
Kevin has a neighbor who own a company to sale sea food to Japan. Including sea urchin. He brought a whole box sea urchin which still alive in there. Kevin showed me how to kill and clean sea urchin.It look terrible to me but I still want to try it. So after he showed me one or two,I opened whole box of sea urchin.Ha ha..... It's a very good experience for me. Same thing happened again , We eat a lot and drink a lot. Kevin and Karen are really like sharing with people.Oh,seven of us all came to their house. And Karen discussed the cosmetics to us,hope that it can be done in a very good way. And hope that all of us can help Karen a lot,me specially. I am so glad that God lead me here and let me met Kevin's family. Because them,my life here are more colorful and happier. Thank you God. Thank you, Kevin and Karen.
After 9 clock we went to mountain to see fireworks.I have to say that it's a really boring fireworks. Not only small and all look familiar,but lack of varied. Although the full moon here is more bigger than where we came from. But it's not everything here are so good. Except that,other things here are mostly good. ha ha........
It was so hard to discarded everything. Not mentioned the softball we play at San jose yesterday.
After church this morning,me,Jane&Sasha toke Kevin&Keren's car to Napa opus winery and paid 25 dollars to test red wine.It was an really good wine that I had ever tested before. Sorry for my poor English,I don't know how to described it.It test like tender smooth feel and last a very long smell in your mouth which means very good.
After that Kevin and keren treated us a lunch which was also very big and good.
The winery was very beautiful and maybe too beautiful that they said looked like an America style tomb there. And you could smell a fertilizer outside.I guessed they wanted people think they plant grapes organically.Napa had a good weather and we took lots of picture there.
On the road to Napa,Sasha sang a song that she made before which was very well.I like it. Hope that I can learn more and help her record her Demo tape or CD.Maybe one day she will be very famous singer or a song writer.
After winery and lunch,we went to Napa outlet to took a look.
So many good store there and I just bought a leather jacket at San jose.So I tried to behave myself. Tried very hard. specially,there had ck.
Jane bought several stuff and finally I didn't buy anything.
After arrived Kevin's house,and little chatting about fish ,camping,etc. stuff,Kevin brought us to his backyard to picked some strawberry ,blueberry and introduced us many other kinds of plants. Kevin really has a green fingers.
After that Kevin prepared to cook and today's main meal was steak. ha ha....
Actually, Kevin has a cook license which means he is a very qualified and excellent cook.
So .....I can tell you that's the most fabulous steak that I ever ate before.... It's really awesome.
Midden rare....you can test outside just a little bit scorched and inside ...wo really tender and soft. And the sauce which contained mushroom was also very very good.
Kevin open an 1948's wine for us.
A good wine and excellent steak which means "perfect life"...........I'd love it.
After steak,of course it comes desert.
Desert was made by Jane and Sasha and who was teacher?Of course was Kevin.
