長髮清麗小女孩點的是培根奶油焗烤飯, 好吃嗎? 我問, 正在仔細品嚐來不及回答我, 只能猛點頭; 微笑地看她吃得津津有味, 你要不要吃一點? 小女孩溫柔有禮貌地問, 試一小匙... 真可口! 下次我要點這個! 暗自決定...
竟然可以將份量不小的培根奶油焗飯吃得剩下一口! 小女孩仍然對我的甜點"檸檬芝士"很有興趣, 一起吃吧! 我邀請她, 女孩一面用軟軟的童音說: 好好吃喔! 一面溫柔有禮貌的將最後一塊讓給我, 輕撫著她細緻柔順的長髮, 都給妳... 教會的小孩真有天國的樣式!
酸甜的 Lemon Cheese, 細細檸檬皮在綿密的口感之餘, 多了點嚼勁; 餐廳的音樂正撥放一首60年代 Peter, Paul & Mary 的經典民歌: Lemon Tree
When I was just a lad of ten, my father said to me,
當我還只十歲的時候 父親對我說
Come here and take a lesson from the lovely lemon tree.
來了解一下從美麗的檸檬樹所能學到的事
Don't put your faith in love, my boy," my father said to me,
可別相信愛情 孩子 父親說I fear you'll find that love is like the lovely lemon tree.
恐怕你將會發現愛情就像美麗的檸檬樹一樣
Lemon tree, very pretty, and the lemon flower is sweet,
檸檬樹很漂亮 檸檬花很美麗
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.
但是檸檬的果實卻酸得不能吃
Lemon tree, very pretty, and the lemon flower is sweet,
檸檬樹很漂亮 檸檬花很美麗
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.
但是檸檬的果實卻酸得不能吃
Lemon Cheese 檸檬芝士酸甜, 微鹹帶嚼勁的口感, 恰似 Peter Paul & Mary 和諧的三重唱; 望著長髮清麗的小女孩, 我輕輕地哼唱: Lemon Tree very pretty, lemon Cheese is so sweet, though the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat...
不知長大後的她是否還會記得這天下午?
是否明白踏出嘗試的第一步有多麼不容易?
