[Funny]“True”truffle chocolates

A month ago,  an interesting piece of news, which was about Truffle chocolate. The Department of Health sampled Truffle chocolates, and they found that inside the Truffle chocolates didn’t contain truffles. As a result of it, The Department of Health asked stores who sold Truffle chocolates stop selling them. After announcing this policy, it really caused uproar. Because Truffle chocolates originally don’t contain truffles, what it called is related to its look. It is called truffle chocolate just because it looks like truffle. Every one loves eating Truffle chocolates, but have we thought of why it called Truffle chocolate? Actually, before watching this news, I believe most of us didn’t know it.
Few days ago, my friend Josh saw this news, a funny idea came into his mind. He decided to make “true” truffle chocolates! Yeah, you are right, he made truffle chocolates which contain truffles! Now I am going to share with you how they taste!



Well, it tasted very special; I mean the truffles, because the chocolate itself tasted just like those which don’t contain truffles, haha.
When you eat the truffles, the in-mouth impressions of it tasted a little bit like taros, isn’t it funny?
The little white parts are truffles, isn’t it special?






To compare with those fake truffle chocolates, I also took some photos for you to compare. In fact, I don’t really mind weather it contains truffle or not, I just care how it taste!

[Book]The last girlfriend before you met your wife.《倒數第二個女朋友》


This is a book about love and life. At first, let me simply introduce its content and writer.
The writer of this book is very famous in Taiwan, his name is Tom Wang (王文華).
I'm very sure you must have heard of his name. His name often appears on the newspaper and he sometime appears on the screen and he is also a host on the radio program.
He has  written many novels about love .He always precisely describes life and feeling of urban people, this is the reason why his books are so intriguing. When you read it, you might be deeply touched, because these stories are so vivid just like those happen in your daily life. 
The book I am going to introduce is called 《倒數第二個女朋友》.Actually, I don't know how to translate its name into English. The meaning of its name is the last girlfriend before you met your wife. The story describes three women ‘s love and life.
They are 20, 28 and 32. They are totally different in their appearance , characteristic , and values. These differences let them choose different men and job, and these different choices greatly influence their life and the men they chose.
In fact, I have read this novel a thousand times! I really love this novel. Every time I read this novel, I feel deeply touched and inspired. Now you me curious about what I said, why a romantic novel might inspire me? The characters in this book are so brave enough to face their life and always be positive to face all the difficulties in their life. That’s why I need to learn and that’s why I love this book. It reminds me that even though most of time in my life, there is always many depression and difficulties, I still have to be tough to face it and solve it. Since I have kept this belief in my mind and work very hard everyday, I believe I’ll have the happy result I want just the same as the ending of the story.
Well, I think this all I want to say about this book, I have confidence that you must love it after you read it.
