Hi,
Yesterday I went to a nearby town to meet a friend who was raising awareness about animal care at a local juice bar. I parked my truck a few blocks away and before visiting Tim I stopped for a crepe at a place that makes the most delicious things! OMG!!!! I’m sorry I had to eat some before taking a picture because it was beautifully served. I didn’t think to share it with you until after I realized how good it was. This crepe is called “The Saxophone” and had bananas, cinnamon, walnuts, honey and whipped cream. Along with the cappuccino and some water, it was a fine breakfast!

As per Kim requested, today my entry will be Pre-Marital Relationship in a muslim way.

Last night, I chatted with my friend Paul who asked me about “dowry”. He said that in Thailand, dowry is a part of their traditional culture and it goes to the bride’s parents. I have no idea about that and i certainly won’t comment about something that i’m not familiar BUT for Malay (Muslim), the dowry does exist. It is customary here and may go into thousand of RM; often, taking the form of both cash & jewelry or clothing.

Hello one and all.

Yesterday I saw some rice for sale.

I noticed that the Royal basmati rice “From Foothills of Himalayas” is written in English. [Read more →]

While you’re drifting off to sleep…
I walked outside to my sunlit yard and looking up toward the sky, snapped this shot of a cherry tree in bloom. I think there is no closer color to your favorite!

Just want to wish you a very good day today. Hope it’s cool! Here is a photo from my yard today. This bush is a Rhododendron.
