A few things about leisure time

東坡居士一十六件賞心樂事 Sixteen enjoyable things to do in your leisure time ( Su Dongpo, a famous Chinese poet in Song Dynasty)
清溪浅水行舟；微雨竹窗夜话；暑至临溪濯足；雨后登楼看山；
柳阴堤畔闲行；花坞樽前微笑；隔江山寺闻钟；月下东邻吹萧；
晨兴半炷茗香；午倦一方藤枕；开瓮勿逢陶谢；接客不着衣冠；
乞得名花盛开；飞来家禽自语；客至汲泉烹茶；抚琴听者知音
今人的人生樂事因時因地而有變動，在此從個人角度出發，舉二三事分享諸君，期盼獲不同回響，添增各人生活情趣
That was then, this is now
1. 烹茶品茗 Making and serving tea喝茶聊天，以茶會友，泡茶休閒今日已成一門專業課程
藉由泡茶過程起手投足找到真實自在的片刻寧靜。這時候觀賞茶湯的色澤、啜飲美妙的茶湯滋味、找到好茶定義、找出自己短暫的快樂時光和安逸的生活享受。此時真正體會喝茶的藝術饗宴 ……. 痞客邦
2. 蒔花弄草 Gardening
休閒活動最佳選項
現代人生活繁忙，植花種樹需求多不易為之。仙人掌類 Succulents 佔地不多且耐乾旱，較適合一般都會人
3. 走出戶外親近大自然 Go outdoor and embrace Mother Nature
4. 記憶中的珍饈美饌 Gourmet food & delicious dishes
