2. I packed lunch today.
- Hey, Peter, are u coming with us for lunch?
- I packed lunch today.
- I see. What's in ur lunch box?
- It's nothing special.
- Just a chicken sandwich, some yoghurt and a banana.
- What's ur lunch box made of? It doesn't look like the one's used in Taiwan.
- Well, we usually use plastic boxes instead of stainless steel ones. The one that I used at elementary school had a spider man printed on the top of the box.
- I'm sure my son can relate to that very well. Spider Man is his hero. Maybe I should make him some sandwiches sometimes. He's tired of having rice and stir-fry all the time.
- I was tired of sandwiches and I was always looking forward to the treats my mother put in the box.
- What kind of treats?
-Usually I'd get a juice box, yoghurt, crackers with cheese, some carrots sticks and some fruit. But once in a while, she would put pudding and chocolate moose.
- Em...Perhaps I should prepare some lunches' surprises for my son from time to time.
- Yeah, u should! Kids love that.

A. The Next Day
- Hi, Peter, I brought my lunch today. Can I join u?
- Yes, please. I didn't know u packed lunch too.
- It was my son's Biandang. He forgot to take his lunch box to school this morning. I think he did this on purpose. He knew I put green peppers in it, and he hates them.
- He could trade them for something else from his classmates. I used to do that when I got peas.
- Well, I don't blame him. Green peppers turn yellow and saggy after being steamed for an hour. Nobody would want that.
- Does it always take that long to steam the lunch boxes in Taiwan? With the microwave oven, u only need 2 mins.
- In Taiwan these schools, the class size is a lot bigger. Can you imagine 50 students lining up for 1 microwave? I remember my school had a giant's teamer, it took up the space of whole wall. Every morning, all classes have their students on duty, deliver the boxes to the steamer room.
- Interesting, so what do you usually prepare for ur son?
- I try to make sure my son has rice, vegetables and lots of meat. He's growing and needs protein at his age.
- U're such a good mum!
