8．Soup on my nose，a nearly spilled glass of wine and chocolate down my white blouse，as blind dates suggest，this was a really messy one．I have never made so much noise with plates and glasses，nor had I dined with a never-before-met companion．This blind date was quite different：we could see nothing．"Put your left hand on my shoulder，and then we'll take small steps forward，"said Michael，the visually impaired（视力障碍的） server，in an East London accent．We three felt our way carefully bumping past heavy curtains before being arranged at the dining table，where we would eat and drink three completely secret and unseen courses．
Welcome to Alchemy in the Dark，Hong Kong's first full-time restaurant in total darkness．Upon arrival，diners briefly tell the chef on their allergies（过敏性反应），lock away their mobile phones and enter the windowless restaurant，which can seat 25．When the meal is over，the contents of the delicious menu are shown---often to the diners'surprise．"This is definitely duck，"my friend said，while eating chicken．"This soup，"I declared，"is carrot and coriander．"Even the too-close smell did not reveal the real tomato and cumin flavors．Dining in the dark changes everything：the sense of smell is heightened，manners go out of the window----using your hands to feel around the plate becomes normal---and there is a strange thrill in being able to ignore your facial expressions．Best of all？You don't have to spend hours beforehand（事先） wondering what to wear．
Alchemy in the Dark is at 16Arbuthnot Road，Central，（tel：6821 2801）and is open Monday to Saturday，from 7pm to 11pm．Reservations are required．A three-course meal with wine pairing costs HK$700per person．Five per cent of all profits go to the Hong Kong Society for the Blind．

7．At the risk of sounding lazy，I'll just be honest：I used to hate making my bed．Why should I bother？I'm just going to get right back into it later，and no one except my immediate family will see it．
But something I read last week in Charles Duhigg's"The Power of Habit"changed my mind．According to Duhigg，making your bed every morning is connected with better productivity and sticking to a budget．It has also been suggested that making your bed promotes happiness．My interest was attracted．
According to Duhigg，making your bed is something called a keystone habit．Changing or forming keystone habits helps you develop other good habits．
I figured that I was the perfect test case for the Make Your Bed to Achieve Happiness Theory and that it was worth a try．So far I've made my bed for 10days in a row．And here's what I've noticed：Making my bed inspires my children to make their beds，clean their rooms and do the laundry and the dishes．
Karen Miller，author of"Hand Wash Cold"，explains："The state of your bed is the state of your head．"I think she is on to something．When I leave my bed in a heap （一堆），I leave the bedroom feeling defeated by my bed，my alarm clock，and my general sleepy mood．I'm reluctant to get the day started．
But when I look at my freshly made bed，I have to admit it：I smile a little．I feel just a bit more motivated．Productive，even．But sticking to a budget？That part is still up for debate．I just bought some beautiful pillows for my freshly made bed．I can't leave that beautiful bed half-dressed，can I？
