Speaking of starting a family, what do you think of?

Writer Fan Honghua remembered her mother's red fish, anti-cancer professor Han Bai, talked about her wife's vegetable dishes, and Peace, the chairman of "Slide Weekly", remembered that her father was cautious about Zhang Luo's food before the New Year.

The delicious food on the tip of the tongue helps us remember the endless memories of life. Everyone has their own unique answers about the taste of home, and what is your "taste of home"?

What else will happen to the dining table besides eating? At the home of family writer and family cuisine researcher Fan Honghua, the family eats together, discusses interesting things during the day, news of the day, and the source of dinner ingredients; the table time is a magical moment. Ten years have passed, and this period of time has changed the lives of the mother and daughter.

Fan Honghua was busy with work for the first 10 years of her mother. She insisted on getting up at 5 a.m. to do lunch for two daughters. And when her daughter was in the fifth and third grades, she chose to work home and become a mother who cooked three meals for her child.

The topic of "eating" has become the main theme of home

After Fanhua left home, she liked to buy ingredients in different places every day, with different budgets every day, 300, 400, 500, "I want to know the market conditions of the dining table, such as what the table is like for a meal of 500 yuan." Her curiosity and exploration have become the topic of dinner, and the children will know which market or farm the mother went to today? How much does an egg or a fish cost?

I don't know that "eating" has become the main theme of this family; the desire to go home to make a meal has nourished two teenage girls who are full of enthusiasm and healthy in food; the social concern of mothers "buy during the season and eat in the local area" makes children have a concept of the food's seasonality, origin, price, etc., and girls know from an early age that good and cheap high-CP value meals are unreasonable.

Because they value "eating", they are also very sensitive to the daily diet news. The news of black-hearted food reports, bakery restaurant "egg liquid maggots" news, and what is the most popular Taiwanese food in the World Sports Pickup Village are all table topics.

Talking daily news with children at the dining table every day is a habit established between two girls and a young age. At the dining table, children will share interesting stories at school, while Fanhua will talk about two important news on the day. Fanhonghua believes that don’t underestimate one day, every day is over, and it’s been a few thousand in six years of elementary school. It’s better to spend a fixed time to communicate and interact through news without any boundaries with it.

Daughter goes to college The intention to make food and care about food at one time made Fanhua and two daughters have a wonderful time, but the daughter no longer needed to take it after she went to college and turned around to explore a new life. "This thing has not been a transition period, it just came to an abrupt end." The house once became peaceful and deserted, and the kitchen was cut The sound and smell of food are no longer there. "I suddenly lost the object of cooking," the red flower is like many parents in the empty nest period. It is lost and sometimes lost. "I cried secretly, they don't know. I hope they don't have to worry about their mothers when they are away, and don't have to think about 'I have to go home soon'. I hope they are free and fly very high and far away."

After exploring again More time to be yourself

Fanhua re-explored how to make the two people's lives well and cook the two people's dishes with her. She also had more time to visit farms, ingredient locations, and green restaurants, and talked about how to understand ingredients. She opened "Literature Classes in Vegetable Market" and "Literature Classes in Hangang" for teenagers, and published books related to green restaurants. Later, I look forward to the time when the girl goes home for a meal on the weekend. She will ask her daughter to order dishes, cook a chicken soup for her daughter and prepare a lot of meat to make a lot of fun.

In the years when she was a female, a frustration arose when Fanhua visited a bookstore: "It's impossible for me to be a writer." At that time, she dreamed of becoming a writer, but she had not written articles for a long time, and her life in her work and family was even more unwilling to allow her to write.

Unexpectedly, in order to become a "mother who cooks for children", she chose a fork in her life. Over ten years, the time when Cooking in the Red Flower became a magical moment. Not only did she nurture two girls, but she also opened her way to become a family writer and a food restaurant, and revolved up her dream of becoming a writer at the time.

Only in the empty nest period and menopause did I understand the loneliness of my mother

"When I was a child, I often went to flip through the namebooks, and I strongly suspected that I was not my mother's child," Fanhua said and laughed, "But I can't see any clues." In that era when it was inevitable that a man and a light girl was favored, it was difficult for chicken legs to appear on the dining table, and it must be eaten by my father or younger brother. At that time, parents were busy with having more children and tutoring them with sticks. They would beat them if they didn't listen. Every time Fanhua was beaten, she felt sad: "I must not be born by my mother!"

Fanhua finally understood her mother's feelings until she became a mother, lived in empty nesting period, menopause, and passed through the mother's life.

Mom doesn't allow herself to put the rare chicken legs on the dining table to her daughter. She will be in the night school during her daughter's high school. She will wait for her daughter to come home no matter how late she will cook for her daughter to cook the night..

The inappropriate menopause also surprised Fanhua that she didn't care about her mother. At that time, there was no doctor to read, no online information to check, and the women had left their homes. A woman had to sweat, insomnia and feel depressed during menopause. "I'm very difficult, why don't I not. Do you know? How did she survive? Why didn't she tell me? "When my mother needed care the most, she was busy with her work and her family: "50 or 60 years old is really the loneliest moment for a person." After her daughter left home, she suddenly understood the loneliness of her mother that year.

Therefore, in the past two years, Fanhua has been going home to have a lot of time to eat with her mother, saying that her mother's red fish is delicious, and she tried her best to chat with her mother, wanting to know her before. Although my mother has less time, my daughter has more time.
