I had meant to finish the book, which is all of 700 pages, before the year ends. But then again, I am ten years behind since my notation on the jacket said I bought the book in the U.K. in 1994 yet.Anyway, time is of no object when you read a classic and Wild Swans is up there on the list of my greatest non-fiction reads.I decided to pull it out of the shelves because of all the hype about China these days.

My lunches this week
For this jaded office worker, lunches can be the best part of the day. It doesn't matter whether I am eating my lunch at my desk or discovering some place new, the sight of food (preferably steaming hot) is enough to divert me from my jarred thoughts or the pressure of deadlines.Market Cafe's Chinese Kitchen, originally uploaded by ajay1.At the Market Cafe, originally uploaded by ajay1.The Market Cafe in the new Hyatt Hotel & Casino (right beside our corporate offices) is undoubtedly my favorite restaurant at the moment.
