A Different Way (to Fry Burgers)
This is the smashing method, which I first read about online somewhere. Supposedly, it’s the Shake Shack’s method of cooking beef patties, but I don’t know because I’ve only been blessed by In-N-Out (in fact, all of the people I’ve ever talked to who have had both say that In-N-Out is better). All I know is, any place that’ll make you a 100 patty cheeseburger AND sounds like half of a porn movie title kicks serious ass. Anyhow, this method ensures you get crispy crunchy goodness throughout the burger as long as you smash it so the initial crust is distributed evenly across the top of the patty. Please see…

Night Beer Hiking in Downtown Chiang Mai
Exactly one month ago, our family took a trip to Chiang Mai by way of daddy, Max, Mina, and the nanny hitching a ride with mommy on a business trip.

Global House Maha Sarakham
About a month ago, Maha Sarakham received a power up in the form of a real home center – Global House. Previously, our only choices for hunting hardware in this province were a pitifully small and understocked Home Mart, and a great number of mom & pops. I’ve visited this place only once, for a quick purchase, and noted that it will take at least a couple hours to properly check out every aisle.

The day I got crushed by an elephant.
Mina is fearless, and I have photos that prove it. I need to get more photos up from our recent exploits. Alas, I will be away this weekend for what I hope is the last road trip for a while…

The Thinker
Max has the funniest dreams about food. Sometimes he wakes up asking for roast pork skewers, and sometimes for pastries. We are used to it now and keep a stash in the fridge, along with at least one bag of sticky rice for Mina.
