小時後在台灣的時候，我最喜歡的零食是乖乖，每種口味我都喜歡。到了我是teenager後，st. louis才有商店開使進口乖乖，那時候，每次陪媽媽去買菜，一定要買幾包。上週六，我們去一家新的亞洲supermarket，我看到一堆不同口味的乖乖，就選了幾包草莓煉乳的，結果Bobo看了跟我說我拿錯了，乖乖應該要有一個little man。他自己選了巧克力和椰子口味，包裝上都有乖乖man。
i was so touched that he likes 乖乖 and recognizes the little man on the package. he likes the same things that i did when i was little! it makes me feel that he has a bond with my heritage. i love that even though he's born and raised here, he's still exposed to things of my childhood through the benefits of free trade!

It's hard to have our kids relate our childhood especially when they were born here in the US.
(even though we are not that OLD, heehee)
Are you planning to take the kids to Taiwan?
that's why it moved me so much when he wanted 乖乖 man!
i am aiming to take them to taiwan every other summer. it'll be hard to keep up since i don't know taiwan that well myself!
Finally, I can read your blog.
It doesn't matter that you don't know Taiwan. Just take kids to Taiwan. Let them know Taiwan by themselves.
小斑馬也很喜歡乖乖
我們有去過幾次了，明年還會再去。可是他們看到的台灣不是我小時候的台灣了，還有他們不喜歡路邊攤! 痛哭中!
妳還有家人在台灣嗎? 如果沒有比較難keep up! 我公婆都住台灣所以就混他們家了
我也是回台灣已經找不到舊時的家了~好陌生
我回台灣都是住我舅舅家，以前一個人還好，現在那麼多人比較麻煩。如果台灣有time share就好了。
Patricia說的有對
如果有家人 小朋友的認同感會比較大
我公婆都回流回台灣了
而且我娘家的家人也都留在台灣
所以小斑馬很愛回去
那裡比較熱鬧~~~~~~人多
這只剩我們一家三口和斑馬舅舅
我們在德州也是就我們四個人，不過我們有一個教會大家庭。
去年我們去了台灣兩次，小孩子都玩得很開心，我們還帶他們去看我們以前的家和學校，蠻有趣的，我倒是很感傷的，看到很多不好的改變。。。
