Just a placeholder for something I’ve been looking into… What the hell is Kasahou?
Kasahou – Osaka?
You are legend?
It’s the Friday night before a four day weekend, and the streets of Bangkok are uncrowded. It feels like a dream. I’ve come back from our trip to Pattaya with my coworkers, Teera and Kwang, in their Almera.
We’ve just checked into a hotel on Rachada soi 20, and will go out exploring the empty city in a while. I’m looking forward to not feeling crowded in this city for once.
Matching Accessories
When I finished my last class today, one of my student’s bags caught my eye. I asked about it, and she produced the phone case she had bought to go with it. I wonder what would happen if…
Smoked Pork Roast
There’s a new butcher shop between my house and work that opened half a year ago. They sell pork only. The quality of meat is better than anywhere else, and the prices are cheaper as well… So I’m in there a couple times a week.
Most Thais do not like the well-marbled cuts that I go after, so there are usually a few choice ones in the displays. The staff will also go get whatever you want from the back, if it’s not on display.
I asked them about a whole pig last week, and they gave me a number to call… I’m toying with the idea of a barbecue pit. Just need to find a steady supply of my favorite lamyai wood.
Exhaustion vs Expiry
We had cool weather during our entire trip back home to Southern California. Coming back to Thailand was like waking up every day in a slow cooker. During the hot days, many cats just lay down on their backs and enjoy a long siesta until evening. Well, maybe not just cats.
Tam Lao Papayaless Variant
Excellent balance of flavors and clever use of banana leaf on flat plate instead of bowl. Sometimes the classics need a reboot.
Let’s play a game…
Its called the Three Dollar or Less Beer Bonanza (Eastern European Edition):
How many of these beers do you know?
How many can you try while packing suitcases last minute?
Crystal Cove, CA
Even in the land of endless beaches, this is a special one.
GOT Tacoma?
Mad props to this guy… Dickon mos def.
As a side note, these retro color scheme (yellow on black) license plates in CA are super popular, but seem strange to me when put on new cars.
PCH Glory
What I wouldn’t do to bring the Crown here someday… My brother in law bought a cherry ’64 GTO convertible with a nice crate V8, perfect inside and out, and all I could think was… I miss my Crown.
