不积跬步,无以至千里
不积小流,无以成江海

Great journeys begin with small steps;
mighty rivers grow from little streams.

儿时回忆 - 炒料豆

我的家乡在鲁西南的一个小县城的农村,一个农业县。在我小的时候,中国的七八十年代,其实没有什么零食吃。在一些节日,家里会自己做些,饱饱家里小朋友的口福。现在记得蛮深的是小时候吃的料豆,其实就是黄豆泡发,然后炒至而成。这应该是山东这边的习惯,表示每年春天的开始。每年二月二的时候,各家各户都在做,然后第二天上学的时候,小朋友的口袋里就装满了料豆。有咸的,有甜的。大家互相交换着吃。我记得咸的料豆是混着沙土一起炒的,沙土是从附近河边挖来的。炒完放凉后,一咬嘎嘣脆,很香很好吃。家里有时候也做甜的,是和糖一起炒,凉后黄豆的表面裹着糖衣,也很美味。在现在各种各样零食小吃无限丰富的年代,估计现在小朋友们已经不屑吃这些了。这些传统也就慢慢消失了,就好像方言一样。现在老家的方言也忘个七七八八了,估计很多词汇说法现在也随着普通话的普及,慢慢消失了。山东金乡方言之一:不知道对应的汉字,方言发音:heng heng,意思是:傍晚。
