As I wait for the cinema theatre room to open and let me in, let me answer a quick Friday Five from F.riday5.com

1. When did you last give (or serve) something you cooked to someone not in your residence?
Ah, just the other day I served duck rice by my Dad to 2 very close friends of mine.

2. When did someone — not a restaurant or takeout spot or housemate! — last prepare a dish for you?
Hm.......... I very rarely go eat in people's homes. But I think the last time I had something that someone else prepared... I think it was last week, a colleague prepared a cold appetizer dish, cherry tomatoes marinated in some kind of lychee water and vinegar. It was yum!

3. When did you last reach out to someone who could use some company?
Can't say specifically, but I do once in a while reach out to my friends to see if they need to vent/talk/chat/gossip.

4. When did someone last reach out to you for similar reasons?
The same few friends would ask me if I'm feeling up to a gossip/chat session. I like to think of us being Lucy (Peanuts) and her Doctor is In thing LOL


5. How good a listener are you when someone needs to talk it out?
I'm a pretty good person to just vent and tell secrets to... I forget about stuff pretty easily LOL. And many times I know it's not the actual giving advice or being right or providing constructive things, it's just being there being all ears.

I'm a good listener...and unless someone ASKS me for my opinion or what I think I remain neutral and just there to listen.

I love your answer about listening. It's often just about having someone hear you. My hubby is definitely a fixer, which I appreciate, but sometimes it's just about hearing me out!

Ooh, that duck rice looks delicious. Is it like the Chinese duck fat rice, with all that yummy duck fat soaking up into the rice?
