Emerald (翡翠) Dreams

“And this is me kissing the Blarney Stone”, says Carrie, my seventeen-year-old daughter. She turns the pages of her new photo album, recounting her recent ten-day 16 abroad, and my mind wanders

back…way back to when she was only five.

“Someday I’m going to Ireland”, she said, holding her Childcraft book in her lap. Her blue eyes 17 as she looked at the beautiful pictures. “Well, maybe you can!” I said. However, it was 18 for our family to pay for the luxury of traveling. I was working as a secretary. My husband Charlie had to close his 19 last year due to his poor health…

Ten years later, Carrie came home from school one day, hardly able to contain her 20 , “Mama, you’ll never 21 where the class is going. To Ireland!” she smiled 22 . “You’re kidding!” I said. “Ireland! Where you’ve always wanted to go!”

“The trip is 23 for year after next, and the $2,100 can be paid in installments (分期付款).” Then she added, “But that’s too much…isn’t it?” Her voice was 24 yet doubting. “Well,” I said slowly, “Daddy and I can’t help much; 25 , you have two years to earn the money.” “You think so?” Carrie’s face lit up like a Christmas tree. “Well,”I 26 , “maybe you could use your father’s bakery and sell baked goods.” Sell baked goods? We 27 at each other. Carrie was an excellent 28 ! This would work![来源:https://www.wendangku.net/doc/6216373285.html,]

Soon, however, fried apple-pies became the customer favorite. All ingredients were 30 —real shortening (起酥油), real butter—and the crust (皮) was handmade and hand-rolled. Finally the pies were fried to a beautiful, golden brown! The finished product was an extremely pleasant treat, winning 31 from even the little old ladies in these hills who have been making dried-apple pies for decades. 32 began rolling in, and the Ireland fund grew, and well 33 the given time the trip abroad was paid in full…

Now I’m looking at her album as sh e proudly points out the 34 she visited: castles of Ireland, historic bridges and churches, cobblestone (鹅卵石) streets of Dublin…so much like those in her Childcraft book. My daughter will forever remember this dream come true, a dream that began in the heart of a five-year-old girl and was completely made 35 by the delicious apple pie!
