Rebecca is an American food photographer. A year ago, she bought her first air fryer(空气炸锅). She started with usual air-fryer dishes, like pizza and egg tarts. Soon she realized that it could make almost everything. Four months later, she was amazed to see a cheesecake come out of the machine. It was cooked well in just 20 minutes. Then she thought, what else could she cook in the air fryer Crab legs, apple pies, and you name it. Rebccca now calls it her“magic box”.

In some families, it has nearly replaced the oven or microwave(烤箱和微波炉). People also share recipes and tips in a social media group called Easy Air Fryer Recipes run by Rebecca.

Embroidery(刺绣) is an important art form in Chinese culture. The most famous embroidery styles are Su embroidery, Shu embroidery, Xiang embroidery and Yue embroidery. Even though embroidery is well-known at home and abroad, the skill of it is in danger of dying out.
Embroidery takes time and patience. It usually takes several months to complete one piece.Since modern machines can make cheaper embroidery products today, fewer people buy handmade ones. Another important reason is that many young people have lost interest in being embroiders. To save the skill, professional embroiders are doing their part. Meng Dezhi is one of them.
Meng has been making Shu embroidery for forty years. She is a national-level inheritor(传承人) and used to work at the Shu Embroidery Factory in Chengdu. But in 2006, the factory was closed down and Meng lost her job. Although facing a difficult situation, she fought on. Meng rented (租) a small space of ten square meters to teach Shu embroidery to others. Here her students needed to divide each silk thread(线) into more than 10 or even 30 pieces. Each piece is thinner than a single human hair. It's really hard work. In 2016, Meng was invited to make a logo for Qixi Festival.It was a small logo, but it required the use of 45 types of sewing techniques (针法) and 35,000stitches(针).
Meng is trying to influence more people by giving speeches in different universities and communities. As a result, a growing number of people begin to join her.“In the early days, I make Shu embroidery just for living. But now I feel that I have the duty to pass on Shu embroidery skills to young generations, because Shu embroidery stands for thousands of years of Sichuan culture and should be saved. It is like sowing a seed-I share my skills and knowledge with young people and look forward to seeing them grow and become guardians of Shu embroidery.”she said.
