These days, there's been endless talk of a financial crisis around the world. People are making a big fuss about it everywhere, and Taiwanese people are jumping on the bandwagon too, constantly talking about layoffs.,Just as I was about to scream again, a seventy-year-old man strode in, buzzing with questions, "What happened","Xiao Jun, eat quickly, finish eating and then go to school." 。Grandma was talking and reached into her bag, pulling out a yellowish cotton bookbag. 。I nodded in agreement, peeled off the burnt shell of the roasted sweet potato, and took a big bite. 。Well, I haven't had roasted sweet potatoes in ages. 。It's really good! 。In my memory, 1976 was a year of extreme scarcity. Not just for children, but for adults too, breakfast might just be one or two baked sweet potatoes. 。It seems like this roasted sweet potato is my breakfast and lunch for the entire morning, I guess I have to keep munching on it.。
