  Life is like potato salad; when it’s shared it becomes a picnic.

  When my three children were young, my husband，Roy ，and I were very  36  .

  “Can we go on a picnic, Mom?” my six-year-old daughter, Becky  37  . “Please.”

  I had said no so many times in the  38   months, and I decided the usual Saturday morning chores (日常工作) could wait. To her  39  , I agreed.

  I prepared a few sandwiches and  40  a cooler with ice and drinks and called Roy  41  . My eleven-year-old twin sons put the cooler and the picnic basket in the trunk and off we went to spend some  42  time together as a family.

  About the time I got the lunch  43  out on the table, Roy arrived on the  44  .

  That was one of the happiest meals we ever shared together. The meal was filled with  45  . We felt a closeness that had been hidden by work and school  46  for so many months. Roy and the boys  47  rocks into the lake. Becky fed the ducks and I sat quietly on the picnic table,  48  God for blessing me with such a wonderful family.

   That night as our  49   went to bed, I kissed their cheeks and realized what a wonderful life I had.

   As I walked out of the room it dawned on me that even the busiest  50   could become a picnic when it’s shared with the ones you  51  .

   Even though the kids have now grown up and  52  from home, I can still remember how I felt that day while sitting at the picnic table.

   Maybe today would be a good( time to  53  potato salad, call all of my grown kids, feed some hungry  54  and skipped a few rocks into the lake. Since life is like potato salad, let’s make it a  55  .

   The English writer Samuel Johnson famously said, “You find no man who is willing to leave London. No, sir when a man is tired of London, he is tired of life, for there is in London all that life can afford.” More than two centuries have passed since Johnson’s age, but his words still ring true. Here, you’ll find the historic Tower of London and the Tate Modern both considered must-sees. Shakespeare’s sonnets(十四行诗) are still being uttered by actors. Londoners most certainly still look up to the royals, but they also rock out to Coldplay and Lily Allen. And while they still sip tea, they now drink Starbucks, too.

How to Save Money in London

Find the free attractions. Many of London’s top things to do, including the National Gallery, Hyde Park and the Portobello Road Market, are absolutely free to enjoy.

Ride the Tube. Taking taxis will add up quickly, so buy a pay-as-you-go Oyster Card and travel on London’s underground system, nicknamed the "Tube".

Dine smart. Corridors like Brick Lane offer fantastic cultural food for bargain prices; fish and chip shops are a cheap standby and takeaway food costs less than dine-in.

London Culture & Customs

London is one of the fashion capitals of the world, and its residents tend to reflect that. Practically, pack an umbrella for the rainy days and a scarf or some layers for the chilly ones. As for tipping, restaurants and cafes will usually add a 10- to 15-percent service charge to the bill. If a service charge is not allotted(指定), it’s customary to tip the same (between 10 and 15 percent). If you’re drinking at a pub or wine bar, tipping is flexible. And in a taxicab, tip the driver to the nearest pound or about 10 percent of the cost.

London Dining

London used to be highly criticized for its heavy and common menu items. Now, London is considered as one of the most gourmet cities in the world. And with its melting pot of cultures, it’s not difficult to see why. London offers everything from modern British to Malaysian. For Indian food, we suggest visiting the curry houses on Brick Lane. If you want a real high tea experience, book reservations at the Ritz, at Fortnum & Mason, or at the Dorchester — but be sure to dress the part. Pub culture is still alive and well, so if you have a hankering for fried fish and salty chips (or French fries), you’ll still find them here. And for a quick bite, exchange a few pounds for a kebab, a quick sandwich or some to-go sushi, which can be found in eateries throughout the city.

    Most of the time, people wear hats to protect themselves from harsh weather conditions. Hats are also worn to show politeness and as signs of social position. But nowadays, hats, especially women’s hats, are much more than that. More exactly, hats have changed into fashion and style symbols by many movie stars. What’s more, people now consider many different features (特点) when choosing even a simple hat. Many designers point out that, when choosing the right hat, it’s important to consider the color of your skin as well as your hair, your height, and the shape of your face.

    First of all, the color of the hat should match the color of your skin and hair. For instance, black hats should be avoided if you are dark skinned. If a purple hat is placed on top of red hair, one will look as attractive as a summer flower. Second, the height of the hat is also an important point. Tall women should not go for hats with tall crowns, just as short women should choose hats with upturned brims to give the look of height. Third, and most importantly, the shape of the face decides the kind of hat one should pick. A small, gentle hat that fits the head looks good on a small face. However, women with big, round faces should choose a different style.

    As the saying goes, “Fine feathers make fine birds.” A good hat can not only help your dress but also support your features, so why not choose the best possible one next time you want to be in public?
